Pepe Jeans goes back to denim fundamentals with its fall-winter 2026 Italian Selvedge capsule. Partnering with Italian mill Candiani, the brand upgrades the straight-leg Dalston jean and trucker jacket. The Dalston arrives in three selvedge variations, including rigid deep indigo, organic cotton with a subtle left-hand twill, and a medium wash, while the 13 oz rigid denim trucker features vintage-inspired pleating.

Avoiding the usual workwear mythology, Pepe Jeans keeps the styling minimal. The approach makes a persuasive case for Italian craftsmanship within the everyday wardrobe. Good jeans can simply look like good jeans.
