Update: 2024-07-29

Description

Lennaert Nijgh tells the story of how his love for raw denim in high school led to his education in traditional Japanese denim and then his company, Benzak Denim Developers in 2013. Their denim is designed to last, using no washes so that the denim creates its own natural fade throughout its long life.
