From gold miners and farmers to cowboys, counter culture activists, bikers, movie stars, artists, and Silicon Valley techies, denim has transcended time, culture, and class. For most men, denim is very personal and evokes strong passion.

These days, it is difficult to get hold of a good jeans though. Substandard hardware and compromised construction in flimsy fabrics go literally against the grains of denim - removing its beloved, hard-wearing characteristics. To call the ubiquitous stretch fabrics these jeans are made of “denim” demands a serious stretch of imagination! They eliminate the joy of wearing the jeans over and over, letting it mold to the body and become part of our self-expression.

In Ontake, you will find a rugged, no-frills, mid-rise jeans in hefty organic selvedge denim from Shinya, one of the best mills in Japan. Slim-straight fit, with a slight taper providing a clean silhouette. The Ontake transcends work and play, while awakening the urban cowboy in you. It is a tough jeans for the grownups.

Frequently asked questions

What if the garment doesn’t fit me?

How are you different from other custom/bespoke/tailoring setups?

Most of the clothes you wear day to day, such as jeans, khakis, jackets, denim shirts, etc., are not available custom-made for you. The industrial processes of construction and washing garments are unavailable to the local tailors.

Even brands that claim to be bespoke or custom will leave you wanting that “ready-to-wear” finish. Specialized stitches such as bar-tacking, chain-stitching, double-needle, and French seam are required to make sturdy, enduring garments only seen in industrial setups. A puckering on the stitches, softness of a brushed garment all needs industrial washers and machines.

Ready-to-wear garments, on the other hand, make you compromise on fit.

We offer personalized fit within the constraints of the business model. We allow you to customize your order as long as it does not compromise the style and make each garment specifically for you. You get the best of both worlds - an industrial finish of ready-to-wear with the personalized fit of made-to-measure.

Once you are satisfied, next time will be breezy, as we store your custom measurements for future purchases.
