Denim is more than a fabric—it is the enduring thread of masculine identity, woven through centuries of labor, rebellion, and reinvention. Born in the looms of Nîmes and Genoa, shaped by the hands of Indian artisans, and immortalized by American pioneers like Levi Strauss, denim has journeyed from workwear to wardrobe essential, adapting to every era while never losing its soul. In 2026, it stands as a symbol of authenticity and resilience, a canvas for self-expression that transcends trends and generations. To wear denim is to wear history—stitched with purpose, dyed in freedom, and tailored for the future. — Joseph DeAcetis, Editor at StyleLujo.com and Menswear Professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology
