For Oxford's Approved Denim, material innovation was a priority; performance denim built specifically for life on two wheels. From new yarn and fibre technologies to new finishes and dying techniques.
After continuous testing, both in the lab and out on the road, Oxford introduce Armourlite™ - highly durable denim that maintains a vintage look and softness; jeans you want to wear.
To do this, Oxford worked with skilled weavers and warpers to include a polyamide fibre into the weave - a hard-wearing material originally developed by the military for parachute cords.
A two-way stretch was added to enhance mobility and comfort. Oxford also included a quick dry technology which draws sweat and increases water repellency.
Measurements are in centimetres.
Waist
Circumference of the waist
The circumference of the waist is measured by passing the tape measure on the waistline between the ribs and the pelvis just above the hip bones. Take the measurement when standing upright and breathing normally with the abdomen relaxed.
Hips
Circumference of the hips
The circumference of the hips is measured horizontally around the part of the pelvis that protrudes most.
Inseam
Inner leg measurement
The distance between the lowest part of the trunk and the soles of the feet measured when standing upright with the feet slightly apart and the weight of the body evenly distributed on both legs.
