andcrafted One-Of-A-Kind

LRD unisex pieces are about FIT. Offering accommodating sizes that fit male and female body frames; not about androgynous fashion that is trying to find a middle ground between both genders.

These one-of-a-kind jeans are truly unique:

The wide leg bell bottoms embrace a retro-inspired look that's sure to turn heads. Let the cool breeze flow with the convenience of two fully functioning side seam metal zippers. The 100% cotton African wax print fabric leg insets and ribboned seams add a vibrant and cultural touch and a contemporary edge to the overall design.

Embroidered with the words Cameroon, Ankara, Toghu & Atoghu

Atoghu: Also known as Toghu, this distinct fabric originates from the Northwest region of Cameroon. A fabric originally worn by African royalty and dignitaries; these jeans beautifully showcase its rich heritage.

Maintaining the authenticity of these thrifted jeans are Sashiko stitched patches. True to our dedication to craftsmanship behind every stitch.

A one yard cut piece of matching African wax print fabric is included so you can embrace your creativity and your unique Afrocentric style.

Making LRD pieces from thrifted denim clothes is a small step towards more sustainable fashion and respecting the earth’s finite resources that were used to manufacture ‘disposable’ fast fashion.
