Feel the Energie!

I've been wearing the same pair of jeans for the past 4 days. They're this pair of Energie jeans that are low rise, straight cut, dark washed with a spattering of whiskers.



It's such a comfortable pair, snug enough to create an illusion of height, but loose enough that it doesn't cut off circulation to your brain. The hem is just the right size, which is such a welcome change compared to all the skinny hemmed jeans proliferating in Hong Kong these days.

The jeans also have 2 very interesting details: the backpockets and a hem fold. The hem has a thick fold then stitched with a thick, white thread. So it has that Antik Denim feel to it.


The back pockets have this olive green twill and leather flap which actually secures your wallet in the long run.



Another plus is that this jean is so versatile. I've worn it with 4 different types of tops, and it looks different each time. So whether it's paired with a pull-over and a velvet blazer; a track jacket; a striped shirt; or a simple polo, it manages to pull
the look together.

I've been wearing the same pair of jeans for the past 4 days. And for someone with more than 40 pairs in his closet, that means these jeans are really something special.
