Description
Model History:
Jeans were gradually integrated into the Chanel wardrobe over the course of contemporary collections, under the impetus of Karl Lagerfeld, who liked to hijack everyday pieces with couture elements. The addition of tweed, the house’s historic material since the 1920s, transforms this utilitarian garment into a sophisticated ready-to-wear piece. This model perfectly illustrates Chanel’s ability to blend Parisian elegance with urban style, while retaining the brand’s distinctive codes.
Exterior Details:
Black denim features a slightly faded finish on the front, for a subtle worn effect. Tone-on-tone stitching reinforces the sobriety of the piece, while tweed side braids add relief and contrast: they blend gold, black and white threads, woven in a dense, irregular pattern. The closure features a branded metal button and discreet zip. Belt loops and rivets reinforce the model’s practical, structured look.
Interior Details:
The interior is unlined, as with most jeans, but the edge finish is clean and reinforced at the braid. The interior label specifies the composition: 98% cotton and 2% elastane for the denim, with a mixed-material insert (wool, cotton, polyamide, viscose, acrylic) for the tweed. The size label (34) and “Chanel” are present on the inner waistband.
Product Condition:
These jeans are in very good condition, with no snags, tears or noticeable discoloration. The tweeds are intact, with no fraying, and the back embroidery is perfectly preserved. The seams and fastenings function flawlessly, attesting to limited or carefully maintained use.
Care instructions:
Handwash cold or dry clean to preserve tweed fibers and denim hold. Avoid prolonged contact with rough surfaces or light-colored textiles due to the risk of color transfer. Iron on reverse side at low temperature, avoiding embellished areas.
Why to choose this product :

Its sober lines enhanced by tweed make it both easy to integrate into everyday wear and original enough for dressier occasions.
