There’s nothing quite as stylistically divisive as double denim. Some love it. Others despise it. We reckon it’s a tough look, but also one of the hardest to pull off. The combo can definitely be used as a measuring device for how stylish a person is – when it’s done well it’s incredible, when it’s not, it’s anything but.
The Canadian Tuxedo hall of fame has many big names plastered on its walls – Harrison Ford, Michael Jordan and Tom Selleck, to name a few. One thing all of those names have one thing in common – an effortless sense of style, almost as if they don’t even realise they’ve put denim on both the bottom and top half of their body at the same time.
Whether you’re a fan of the look or not, there’s no denying its profound significance, so to celebrate one of the most iconic combos in outfit history, we’ve put together some double denim selects, items courtesy of our friends at EQVVS.
Carhartt WIP Relaxed Fit OG Detroit Jacket
Polo Ralph Lauren Parkside Jeans
A strong Canadian Tuxedo that incorporates two classic brands, Ralph Lauren & Carhartt. Most men who pull off double denim will have a bit of class about them, and both of these brands have that too. We reckon the beige collar on the Carhartt jacket breaks up the outfit nicely also.
Belstaff CS60 Chambray Overshirt
Carhartt Relaxed Fit Newel Jeans
Alright, chambray may be slightly different to denim, so this might not be the purest double denim combo on this list, but you can’t let yourself be stuck in the past. A modern take on a classic look, if you will.
Universal Works Head Coach Jacket
Carhartt Relaxed Fit Single Knee Pants
While some instances of double denim can be pretty form-fitting, this one is definitely not. Relaxed, airy and loose, this Universal Works & Carhartt combo is for the person who prioritises comfortability only second to style.
Polo Ralph Lauren Custom Fit Denim Shirt
Carhartt WIP Relaxed Fit Brandon Jeans
Whilst curating this list, we’ve realised one thing, Carhartt & Ralph Lauren denim products complement each other expertly well. There’s definitely a bit of Tom Selleck-ness about this combination – no messing around just quality denim on top of quality denim.
