Happy Holidays and keep up the good work Jane. Love these kinds of personal roundups. It would be amazing for those of us living in Europe to have Your take on European jeans brands and/or more mainstream USA brands easily available in Europe. The specialist USA denim brands you often feature are prohibitive due to a whopping 20/25% import duties + international shipping costs. Not to mention many don’t allow international returns making purchase feel too risky. Hoping this idea finds favour with you. 😊

Hatty, I am all too familiar with these import duties (being a small brand, my customers get slammed with it, too) and I know how big an issue/hurdle it is. I hear you! I would LOVE to do a roundup of great jeans for European/UK shoppers. As I like to actually see and try on everything I feature, I just need to get over there to do it. I'll make it a priority next time I'm across the pond. Great suggestion. Happy New Year! x
