Blackhorse Lane Ateliers

Founded in Walthamstow in 2016 by Han Ates, Blackhorse Lane Ateliers set out to revive denim garment-making in London. Its jeans combine tailoring knowledge with selvedge denim, traditional construction and an emphasis on repair and long-term wear.

This is denim with a maker’s mentality behind it — the kind that becomes more interesting once it has creased, faded and properly become yours.
