A NOTE FROM PETE & TONY

Sometimes, the road is uphill. Sometimes downhill. Our Elgin jean was downhill as far as complications go - just short of speed wobbles really. We had been selling our Ladbroke Grove lower rise slim tapered jean for a few years and there were enough of you out there who spoke up to let us know that the jean was good, but could be better for them if it had a mid rise.

We had a 5 minute meeting with our pattern maker, Pam, and just said, "Pam, please take our LG fit, add about 1.5 inches to the rise and send the pattern to the factory so we can make a sample." I remember trying the first prototype on and Tony and I agreed that it was exactly what we needed. No second prototype necessary. Let's get to production.

Stay safe out there and bloody Hell, wear a helmet when you bomb that hill.

Saluté,

    12.5 oz Elgin

    Third pair of Tellason jeans and, as usual, the quality is astounding. Worn these twice now and they're well on their way of being broken in. Tony gave me special help to locate a specific pair with the right front rise - making sure they fit perfectly. Service like that is a unheard of elsewhere at any price.

    Perfect fit and weight!

    So happy I purchased these bad bwoys - they're great. They're a little long for me since I'm 5'9", but this fit and weight cuff up absolutely perfect. The quality is 5 stars! Can't wait to cop some Tellason tops now to complete the fit. Thank guys!

    Amazing quality and construction, and the higher rise on the Elgin is a great option. I own many Tellason pants, shirts, and jackets and now a second pair of Elgins. Love that everything is made in the US and Italy. PS - Tony and Pete are incredibly helpful and great guys.

    Great pair of tapered jeans

    High-quality, comfortable jeans with excellent customer service. I am enjoying the process of breaking these jeans in, and the fit is overall good. I’m 5’9”/165 lbs with larger thighs. A size 32 fit me great everywhere but my waist was a bit large. Pete told me to cinch it so they’ve been fine ever since! Thanks, Tellason!

    My favorite pair of jeans 2 years in

    Posted by Jeremiah McCann on 9th Oct 2023

    These are my second pair of Tellason Elgins and my 5th pair of raw denim pants. Good: A larger front rise means there is proper room for a gentlemen's sausage. The mid-rise means plumber crack isn't an issue. The thigh fit is PERFECT. I have slightly larger thighs and other jeans tend to feel uncomfortable in this area. Needs Work: I do think the taper should be slimmer. I'm not a skinny jeans guy, but the extra fabric around the calf can look strange. On my size 36, the knee is about 9.25'' with the opening at around 8''. I have my tailor bring them to 8.75'' at the knee to 6.75'' at the opening. Conclusion: With patience, these jeans become my ultimate custom pair of jeans. The fabric is great and I cannot stress enough how they have room for thighs and bits. Also extra points for the free inseam hemming service!

    ELGIN - MID RISE SLIM TAPERED SELVEDGE JEANS - 12.5 OZ.

    Posted by Sascha on 13th Jun 2023

    Best jeans I have ever had, only disappointed that I did not know/had them earlier….Perfect cut: not too baggy, not too tight but cleary shaped…and the midrise cut makes the difference for me: I always had to choose between low cuts that look good in the front but exposed my behind, or high cuts that looked good from behind but were weirdly shaped in the front. With the Elgin: problem solved! I am on my 6th pair in 6 years, always having one pair to wear out until it dies and one fresh pair to wear in…With an additional pair of black Elgins this makes basically makes up my whole pants wardrobe: every day, all year.

    Great fitting jeans. Ideal weighted denim for year round use in Australia. Nice tapered fit to wear with Chelsea style boots or Vans. Great service from the boys at Tellason. Highly recommend buying your jeans from Tellason.

    They run a bit small as I am a 32 but they are definitely tight.

    I owe my friend BIG TIME for telling me about this company and their PERFECT jeans. I know where I'll be buying all my jeans for the rest of my life.
