Fabric weight is measured in ounces per square yard. Heavier cloth starts stiffer, takes longer to break in and usually fades with more contrast. The bars are drawn to scale.

Hidden Rivet Pants, Shirts & Jackets in Raw Selvedge Denim
The Hidden Rivet is made for people who want clothes that get better with every wear. The collection centers on Hidden Rivet pants in raw selvedge denim and military twill, Hidden Rivet shirts in Japanese cotton and a classic Hidden Rivet denim jacket, all built to fade, soften and take on the shape of the person wearing them.
Every piece starts with fabric chosen for character, from 21oz slubby selvedge to lightweight 6oz Japanese plaid. The result is a focused wardrobe of everyday staples with workwear roots and a streetwear edge.
The Story Behind the Name
The name comes from one of denim’s smartest details. Early jeans had exposed copper rivets on the back pockets, and they scratched saddles, chairs and furniture. In 1937, Levi’s covered those rivets with a layer of denim, creating hidden rivets: hardware that still reinforced the pocket while staying out of sight.
That idea, strength without show, sits at the heart of the brand. It carries the same thinking into a modern lineup: honest fabrics, careful construction and details that reward a closer look.
Why the Collection Stands Out
Plenty of labels sell denim. This one focuses on the fabrics and finishing that denim fans actually look for.
- Heavyweight raw selvedge: the Grounded pants use ultra-heavy 21oz denim with a textured slub weave.
- Japanese fabrics: Grounded Roots is cut from 21oz raw Japanese selvedge, and The Sunday Shirt, the signature shirt of the range, uses 6oz Japanese cotton plaid.
- Built to evolve: raw denim is left unwashed, so every crease and fade is earned through wear.
In a market full of fast fashion, the brand goes the other way: fewer pieces, better materials and clothes designed to last for years.
The Signature Style
The look is rugged, minimal and rooted in vintage workwear. The pants come in regular and straight-leg cuts, with earthy colorways like moss, black and faded army green, and details borrowed from vintage military and denim classics.
Look closer and the craftsmanship shows: pick stitching on collars and cuffs, a self loop collar, natural Corozo buttons with their own grain, and a hidden HR button stitch. It’s a style that speaks quietly, much like the rivets that inspired the name.
How to Break In Raw Denim
Raw denim rewards patience. Like the hidden rivet jeans of the mid-century, the Grounded pants are built to be worn hard: they start stiff and deep in color, then soften and fade into a pattern unique to the wearer.
- Wear them often before the first wash so fades form where the body moves.
- Wash sparingly, cold and inside out, to protect the indigo.
- Hang to dry instead of tumble drying, which can shrink and stress the fabric.

Hidden Rivet Pants: Raw Denim and Twill
The Grounded pants are the backbone of the lineup, cut from heavyweight raw selvedge denim in slub, black and moss. For a break from denim, The Peacekeepers use 11oz herringbone twill, garment washed to a faded army green.
- 21oz raw selvedge with a slubby, textured weave
- Regular and straight-leg cuts in sizes 28–38
- A military-inspired herringbone option

Hidden Rivet Shirts
The Sunday Shirt is a lightweight layer made from 6oz, 100% cotton Japanese plaid, soft enough to wear alone or under a jacket. It comes in three colorways, including blue and brown.
- Pick stitch accents on the collar, welt pocket, cuffs and hem
- Eight natural Corozo cat-eye buttons
- Sizes XS–XXL

Hidden Rivet Jackets
The Accordion is the house denim jacket, a rework of the classic Type 1 denim jacket in 12oz sanforized crosshatch denim. It molds to the wearer and builds its own fade pattern, making it a natural partner for Grounded pants.
- 12oz crosshatch denim with a textured weave
- Type 1–inspired silhouette
- Sizes XS–XXL

Returns are just as straightforward. Unworn, unwashed items with tags attached can be returned within 14 days of delivery, and approved refunds go back to the original payment method. Raw denim that has been worn or washed can’t be returned, because it starts shaping to the wearer from the first wear, so it pays to try every pair on carefully. Approved refunds are processed within 10 business days of the return arriving.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a hidden rivet on jeans?
It’s a metal rivet on a back pocket that’s covered by a layer of denim. Levi’s introduced the detail in 1937 so the hardware wouldn’t scratch saddles and furniture.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, every order ships worldwide with free shipping. Shipping takes 10–15 days, and any import duties are paid by the customer.
What do Premade and Preorder mean?
Premade pieces are already made, while Preorder pieces are reserved now and ship once ready. A preorder can be cancelled for a full refund any time before it ships.
What is the return policy?
Unworn, unwashed items with tags attached can be returned within 14 days of delivery. Raw denim that has been worn or washed can’t be returned.
How should raw denim jeans be washed?
Wear them for several weeks or months before the first wash so fades can form. When it’s time, wash them cold and inside out, then hang them to dry.
