The Blackthorn Chieftain Straight Jean represents the brand's most premium offering, crafted in the USA. The denim originates from Vidalia Mills in Louisiana, known for its "farm-to-yarn" approach utilizing locally grown cotton. This cotton is woven on vintage Draper X3 looms, some sourced from the former White Oak Mill, with each machine taking approximately two hours to produce enough fabric for a single pair of jeans. The denim is then rope-dyed with genuine indigo and the jeans are cut and sewn in Los Angeles.
