Premium Denim Makes
a Hit With Pint-sized Versions of Popular Adult Style |
|
Kids everywhere want to know, when it comes to blue jeans, ‘Why should grown ups have all the fun?’ And they aren’t the only ones asking. Premium denim brands such as Earnest Sewn and Chip & Pepper are giving the youth market a leg up in the denim department with premium jeans designed
just for children's clothing. Parents may find premium prices a luxury, especially when it comes to growing children, but these high-end designers have added kid-friendly design elements to children's clothing
such as cuffable hems and adjustable waistbands to grow with your little one.
Denim is a practical choice when it comes to children’s clothes for parents because of durability and a fashion choice for kids. Parents love the easy care. Not only can denim jeans be washed and dried at home, but stains and torn knees don’t look out of place on a great pair of jeans. Kids on the other hand love the comfort of a natural fiber and being able to emulate the styles seen on their favorite tween stars. No matter what the case may be, it’s clear that denim is one of the few things parents and kids can agree on for children’s clothing.
To help us find the latest and greatest in the growing premium denim jean market for children’s clothing,
DenimHunt.com, the denim-loving blog, gave us some perspective and some
recommendations.

| Earnest Sewn |
| True to its brand name, the ‘Lit’l Earnie’ line is a pint size version of what for adults has been “earnestly sewn” by company founder Scott Morrison. Even in this children's clothing version, signature construction elements such as a love of handcrafted imperfection shines through. The kids versions also feature the signature powder blue and orange stitching, the copper button, and rivet detailings that make this jean brand stand as an American classic. An adjustable waistband adds comfort and room to grow. |

| Chip And Pepper |
| New in 2007 is a kids clothing line by Chip and Pepper Denim. The founders are twin brothers Chip and Pepper Foster, who also host a television makeover show. Like other brands in this article, Chip and Pepper extend the same care and craftsmanship used to make their signature vintage looks for adults to their children’s clothing. There is something wonderfully ironic about a vintage premium blue jeans on a youngster. |
