9 Denim Brands Everyone Will Be Wearing in 2019

When it comes to denim, everyone has their go-to brands, some of which we could probably guess including Levi's, J Brand, and Re/Done. Having those tried-and-true pairs of jeans that fit you like a glove is a wardrobe necessity, yes, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be open-minded to the new denim brands on the block, and come 2019, there are going to be quite a few you'll regret not knowing about.

If fresh and forward denim is something you foresee in your near 2019 future, then you have come to the right place. Here, we have rounded up nine of the best denim brands you might not know about but definitely should. Some of the names that made the cut are already stocked on larger retailers like Net-a-Porter and Moda Operandi, but not in large quantities. In other words, they are still on the up-and-up while most of the brands listed below are new in every sense of the word, and we can't wait to see them shine this year. 

Ahead, read up on the best denim brands we think everyone will be wearing in 2019 and shop our favorite denim pieces from each. 

1. The Feel Studio Inc.

This brand prides itself on being rooted in sustainability. Each pair of jeans it produces is washed with organic softeners and no chemicals, right in the heart of California. The brand also uses what is called the Ozone technique when producing its jeans, which involves little to no water. Considering these were created with such care, you know these jeans will last.

5. B SIDES

"The B side of a record is where the deep cuts live—the complex, idiosyncratic songs that true connoisseurs appreciate most," explains the brand. So, if that side of a record were to transform into a pair of jeans, they would be the ones found at B Sides. Here you can find vintage-inspired, reworked denim that has extreme character.
