Denim

Founded by Chad Hilton, Crate Denim is an American men’s premium denim label that is designed and hand made in Los Angeles. They use deadstock selvage denim, antique buttons and custom stitching to produce high quality, hand crafted modern looking jeans.Working alongside Chad are Moe Abdelmuti, Cary Levine, and McNair Zimbalist.

Crate Denim is sold in Bloomingdale’s across the U.S., as well as Ron Herman stores, and Barney’s. The flagship Secret Service store is located at 710 S. Santa Fe / Los Angeles, CA 90021 in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. They will also be opening a store in Palm Springs in April, and a second LA store this summer.

The material for Crate Denim jeans is sourced from deadstock denim, made decades ago for brands such as Levi Strauss, Wrangler and Lee. Every piece is in some way hand touched by someone at the office, whether it’s hand cutting the patterns, putting rivets on pockets or packaging the orders.

    Many thanks for a product worth the wait. Is there a possibility of exchanging the purple check for different color. I ordered these for son in Texas, he thinks they are great, well made and a great fit. Not so much my purple color choice, cannot remember the colors, can’t find them on line, (not so tech savvy) Thanks to Samantha for response to my previous request. Have a great day.
