For a lifetime of adventure, on and off the beaten path.
A lot of straight-leg jeans are straight in name only – cut so rigid that any real movement feels like a test. The Traveler fixes that. Outerknown cut it from 13.75oz organic cotton denim from Candiani Mills in Italy – the gold standard for sustainable, high-quality denim – but added just the right amount of comfort stretch so the fabric moves with the wearer rather than against them. The result is a jean that genuinely works across a full day: structured enough to look sharp for work or an evening out, relaxed enough to handle the walk, the commute, or wherever else the day goes. A 16" leg opening and a 32" inseam keep the proportions classic without being restrictive. The denim has guts – it's built to develop character over years of wear rather than fading into something forgettable after a season.

- Sustainability through preferred fibres - Outerknown has grown its use of preferred fibres (including Regenerative Organic Certified® cotton, organic cotton, hemp, and recycled materials) from 87% in 2022 to 98% as of 2024.
- Closing the loop on clothing - Through Outerworn, Outerknown's resell platform for pre-loved styles, the brand has kept over 1,800 garments out of landfill and in circulation, working towards making 100% of its products fully circular by 2030.
Born from the sea and shaped by the belief that clothes should outlast seasons, Outerknown makes everyday essentials for people who actually live in them. Co-founded by eleven-time world surfing champion Kelly Slater, the brand has been quietly rethinking what ‘responsible fashion’ looks like since day one – not as a marketing badge, but as a structural commitment woven into every seam.
95% of the AW26 collection is made with organic, Regenerative Organic Certified, recycled, or regenerated fibres. Candiani Mills denim from Italy. Manteco’s recycled wool processed in the same country. Regenerative Organic Certified cotton grown and harvested with the soil, the farmers, and the future in mind. These aren’t marginal improvements – they’re the standard. And the clothes themselves? The kind that feel so good you reach for them over and over, season after season.
From the legendary Blanket Shirt – often imitated, never duplicated – to the Hightide sweats that feel softer than your favourite towel, and SEA Jeans cut from heavyweight organic cotton denim, Outerknown makes wardrobe anchors, not filler. Versatile enough for the water’s edge in the morning and a dinner table by evening, the pieces ship to your door ready to become staples.
