I will be the first to admit that, until recently, I wasn't a big denim guy. Khakis were always my preference in college and grad school, so I knew little about washes and cuts for denim beyond my 501s. But with the start of this blog and my obsession with Americana wear, denim is slowly carving a special place in my wardrobe as well as in my heart. And thanks to my buddy
Joe Gannon and his
Denim Debate entries, one brand that especially caught my eye some time ago is Nashville's
imogene + willie, a small company making big waves in the denim department.
