The Godfather Of Denim, Adriano Goldschmied, the man who paved the way for raw denim and prewashed selvedge denim jeans alike, has unfortunately as of last week passed on at the age of 82, but this video commemorates the story of how Adriano Goldschmied became the Godfather of Denim. This is a man who stepped beyond the world of raw denim, beyond the work of workwear and Americana fashion, and basically discovered the market of luxury denim accidentally. He is also credited with popularizing prewashed denim techniques as well as stonewashed denim, and then eventually dedicated his life to creating sustainable denim. While this is a raw denim jeans and selvedge denim channel, we would NOT have the luxury denim we have today, nor the expansive offering of selvedge denim jeans, without Adrian Goldschmied himself; the Godfather Of Denim. Rest in peace, and thank you for your contributions.
