Since our founders created their original workwear line in 1865, Duck Head denim has embodied the rugged spirit of the American worker, and today that legacy continues with a refined approach built for modern wear. Drawing on heritage details from our archive and crafted from premium Japanese denim sourced from the renowned Kaihara Mill, each pair is substantial yet comfortable, delivering durability without stiffness. Cotton yarns blended with stretch fibers provide controlled flexibility and recovery, helping the denim maintain its shape over time. Details like vintage mallard tack buttons and rivets nod to our original designs. The Slim Straight Fit is slightly slimmer through the hip and thigh, with a more tapered leg, offering a sharpened look without sacrificing comfort.
