Sustainable Sales: 20% Off Denim at Tobi
Organic denim is wicked expensive – so expensive that I don’t actually own any organic denim, because I just plain can’t afford it unless it goes on sale.
So, of course, just after I start to dig myself out of the hole from moving to a new house, taking the dog to the vet, paying all of my domain name fees…Tobi has a sale on all of their regularly-priced jeans. Including their organic stuff.
Thanks, Tobi, for having a sale at the exact moment that I have just enough money, but really should save it for a(nother) rainy day. (Damn it.)
Here are the details: Today and tomorrow, you can use the code BOTTOMSUP, to take 20% off any regular-priced designer denim at Tobi.com. Since sustainable denim - selvedge jeans, organic cotton, raw denim - can be incredibly expensive, this is a great chance for those of you that, like me, haven’t had the funds to pick up a pair of $200 jeans. (It’s also a good time to get those non-organic “denim leggings” that seem to be all over the fashion world, since all of Tobi’s denim is on sale, not just the eco-friendly stuff.)
If I could justify the purchase, here’s what I’d get:

Loomstate Kharma Bootcut Jeans in Basin: $161
$128.80 with code BOTTOMSUP
Bootcut is coming back. Seriously. I predict that this spring and summer will be the resurgence of this figure-flattering trend – which is awesome, because it’s my favorite cut of all time – and if I could only get one pair of jeans from this sale, these would be it. A dark wash can be dressed up with heels or down with Converse, and the even wash is perfect for almost any style.

Loomstate Lover Boyfriend Straight Leg Jeans in Deluca: $154
$123.20 with code BOTTOMSUP
Okay, these are just cute. I don’t normally like the Boyfriend jean, but the extra-long cuff and baggy sillouette are perfect for menswear-inspired outfits. (Think a tight, fitted button-up and blazer with sky-high heels.)

Loomstate Flux Slim Tapered Leg Jeans in Fossil: $168
$134.40 with code BOTTOMSUP
Slim, but not too slim. I feel like these could last longer in my closet than most skinnies because the wash and five-pocket design are so classy.

Loomstate Maiden Wide Leg Jeans in Trace: $180
$144 with code BOTTOMSUP
Every girl needs a wide-leg pant. No, don’t argue; just buy them. You’ll thank me. Seriously. (A side note: today I wore a long, belted funnel-neck jacket with wide-leg trousers, and I felt like a movie star as I was walking down the street to the office. The flow of the pants, the length of my body in my trench…Seriously, I cannot live without a couple of pairs of wide-leg pants.)
And yes, I have some for the men, too. — Actually, this is the part of the sale I was really looking forward to: the boyfriend is in desparate need of a few pairs of good jeans. Right now he only wears two pairs – both designer, ahem - and I am so sick of having to wash them twice a week!

Nudie Jeans Bootcut Barry Jeans in Dry Old Organic: $199
$159.20 with code BOTTOMSUP
Really, you don’t even have to look at anything else. These jeans are insanely sexy. Sadly, my guy is 6’5″, and wears a whopping 36″ inseam. These only go up to a 34″. FRICK. (In other words: temptation averted.)

Loomstate Mission Relaxed Straight Leg Jeans in Seneca $185
$148 with code BOTTOMSUP
I love these as a “casual jean” for guys that don’t like to get too dressed up, or want to do the deconstructed look without buying jeans with pre-made holes. (Note: I think pre-made holes are stupid. End note.) However, they also come in Salton, for those that love this cut but would prefer a darker wash.

Loomstate Revival Bootcut Jeans in Fossil: $168
$134.40 with code BOTTOMSUP
GO LOOK AT THE SIDE VIEW, PLEASE. Oh my booty. (Translation: these are good “butt jeans.” Take note, guys.)
Bottoms up, indeed.

Naked & Famous Denim WeirdGuy Natural Organic Selvedge in Indigo: $220
$176 with code BOTTOMSUP
Yes, yes yes: some guys like the tapered jean. Please note that this cut is called the “WeirdGuy,” and I approve of that phrasing. Also note that I am the rare girl that doesn’t adore the tapered jean on men right now, so my opinion on this matter should be all but ignored. (Naked & Famous is a kick-ass brand, though, so if you do like the cut, you can’t go wrong picking up this pair.)
Tobi doesn’t list everything sustainable in their eco-friendly section,
so for more eco-friendly options you can search their site for “selvedge” (a process that uses more fabric and creates less waste) or the designer Rogan, which uses eco-friendly fabrics. Or just browse…and keep your eye out!
Remember: this sale ends tomorrow at midnight, so if you want the savings – which, on sustainable denim, are rare – you have to shop now. (Please hold me back.)
