Terry Jean — Bud Moon / OYSTR-WASH
Size 32 × 32
The Terry Jean is a mid-rise, tapered fit with room through the thigh and a clean line from the knee down. Comfortable without excess, structured without stiffness.
This pair was aged during the Bud Moon—early spring conditions, cold water, and slow change—resulting in soft denim with restrained contrast and a settled, even tone.

Maritime Aging
OYSTR-WASH — Whole Budding Moon
Submerged for 28 days in early spring waters off Nantucket, sealed inside oyster bags and suspended in floating cages at a working oyster farm. Constant tidal motion, saltwater exposure, and surface light worked the fabric gradually.
Some garments were turned inside out. This pair was weighted internally with stones and oyster shells, allowing the denim to respond to movement from within as well as without.

Moon Context
The Budding Moon marks the first signs of growth after winter—subtle shifts rather than full bloom. The denim reflects that moment: restrained, balanced, and still evolving.
