In the coming weeks we expect to receive a small run of jeans from Tellason. Tellason are an all American independent jeans company based in San Francisco, established in 2008. They use selvage denim from the famous Cone Mills White Oak plant in Greensboro, North Carolina, they are cut and sewn in San Francisco and the leather patch is made by Tanner Goods from Portland, Oregon.
There is an interesting interview with Tony Patella of Tellason over on A Continuous Lean - check it out.
