A NOTE FROM PETE & TONY

Ten years ago, We had a few fits in the stable with ambition to have a few more, in due time. We form our opinions, we get some feedback from people who know denim and are not afraid to share their viewpoints, and we pull the trigger when the time is right and head over to Pam's place to get a pattern started.

I was in Boston then, participating in an open to to the public event put on by Boston's own, Ball and Buck store. The venue was an incredible old brick warehouse, which basically describes a lot of that old city. Anyway, I was there to sell some pants. One dude stepped up to my fold out table full of jeans and spoke about what he wanted in a jean. Now, we are in "hockey country" so it seemed like every man around spoke about their love for hockey and had the legs and bunz to prove their commitment to their sport. They were also in need to have a tapered leg on a fit that suited their burly thighs to show off their new leather Alden boot or whatever. I tried to get them into our Ankara straight leg fit but you can tell that they were bothered by the straight leg effect of extra fabric below the knee.

The event was over, I sold some jeans and thought how many more I could have sold if we had a jean like the Ankara but with a tapered finish at the bottom. That was enough of a message for Tony and I to get going on our newest fit back in 2011- The Sheffield- mid rise, straight tapered jean. See, we listen once in a while...

    Great jeans. And better service.

    Posted by Glen Gabriel on 20th Jun 2023

    When the original size I purchased was too tight in the thighs the team was quick to get me a return label and send out a new pair, which are perfect. With their tightly woven edge and attention to detail, these jeans offer a distinct aesthetic that I absolutely love. While they require a bit of breaking in, the superior fit and comfort make them a worthwhile investment for denim enthusiasts who appreciate the blend of Japanese artistry and American manufacturing that Tellason offers.

    Sheffield 14.75

    Posted by Dino Pellegrino on 6th May 2023

    I don't have different jeans for different purposes, I wear my Tellason Jeans for Everything. They work hard fit great (maybe a little slim in the ass and thigh) so maybe size up a bit it you have a manly build. Work or play I'm in them day and night! Thanks Pete & Tony!

    breaking in

    Posted by Michael Greenwood on 29th Apr 2023

    These are breaking in just fine. Perfect fit and taper. Tough as needed. I also bought a slim tapered pair but I'm not wearing them until I need to break in a new pair.

    gorgeous

    Excellent quality selvedge denim that's built with attention to detail. The indigo is gorgeous and the fabric weight is great. I especially like the detailed construction and stitching of the Sheffield Jeans. I'm excited to see how the Kaihara denim gains character over time.

    Sheffield 14oz

    Posted by keith sawka on 17th Nov 2022

    It's been great working with Pete at Tellason to find the right size. He is super helpful. I also own the denim jackets, the Elgin, and several shirts. I like the dark indigo color on this model and the slight extra room it offers in the thighs and ass area. I ended up going a size up so it offers a little more room. Once its broken in after a soak, wash, and some wear, it's super soft and feels great. The fit and finish is top notch. I had compliments right away from random ladies so Tellason is doing something right! Bravo

    Perfect Fit

    The Sheffield fits like a modern straight leg and I look forward to breaking them in over time. The fit was exactly as expected.

    Sheffeild - 14.75

    Posted by Drew on 19th Jul 2022

    I just snagged a pair of these Sheffeild's in 14.75 oz. Kaihara denim the other day. The guys at Tellason really know what they're doing with the cut and construction of these jeans. There is nothing overly fancy about these jeans, but the attention to detail and craftsmanship on these are top notch. Really nice to see and American company so dedicated to their craft. I'm 5'10, 190 lbs and size 33 worked for me. They were stiff and starchy (as raw denim should be) out of the box. They were also just a tad tight in the waist. After 2 full days of wearing them, they've already loosened up a bit and are starting to conform to my body. I've never been able to pull off a skinny or slim fit given my athletic thighs and backside, but definitely appreciate the silhouette this slight taper provides. I own over a dozen pairs of raw denim from various makers and have to say I think these might take the prize for fit, construction and overall value proposition. Absolutely superb American-made jeans. I can't wait to see what these will look like in 5 to 10 years. Thanks Tellason!
