Blue Wabash Denim
Wabash denim is a denim fabric with distinguishing white Stripes.
It has a long tradition. It originated in the USA in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and was primarily used for workwear such as trousers, shirts, and jackets.
Its hallmark is the distinctive dot or stripe pattern. Named after the Wabash Railroad, which outfitted its workers with the characteristic striped fabric, the term has become well established among collectors of vintage denim pieces.
We produce our Wabash denim just as it was made around the turn of the century, on an old selvedge loom with the typical white stripe.
Although Wabash denim has its roots in workwear, it carries an elegant appearance and looks just as good outside the workshop as it does inside.
