About the DRKSHDW by Rick Owens Kurdt Straight-Leg Distressed Jeans

The Kurdt is DRKSHDW's straight-leg jean, cut from rigid denim with a button fly and a long, low-slung rise. Rick Owens' diffusion line gives it the house's signature treatment: heavy distressing, a dark waxed or washed finish, and a deliberately raw hem. It suits people who want a designer jean that reads more like a piece of clothing than a status logo. Against slim designer denim it is roomier and more aggressive; against workwear-style raw denim it is softer in construction and far more fashion-forward.

Cons
  • Rigid denim is stiff at first and needs breaking in
  • Distressing and raw hems can fray further with washing
  • Long inseam and low rise fit a specific body type
  • Dry clean or careful cold washing is safer than machine drying
  • Sizing runs inconsistently between washes and seasons

What reviewers say

Owners of DRKSHDW denim describe it as a real Rick Owens piece: heavy, structured and cut long. Most praise the fabric and the distressing; the recurring complaints are stiffness, sizing and how the raw hems age.

What people mention
  • Fabric weightPraisedOwners say the denim is heavy and rigid, closer to raw denim than to soft designer jeans.
  • DistressingMixedMost like the deliberate wear and raw hems, but some say the fraying spreads after washing.
  • FitMixedThe straight leg and long rise suit tall wearers; shorter buyers report needing to hem them.
  • SizingCriticisedBuyers say sizing shifts between washes and seasons, so the same size can fit differently.
  • Break-inMixedThe jeans soften with wear, but several owners call the first weeks uncomfortable.

Questions and answers

How does the Kurdt fit compared with other DRKSHDW jeans?
It is a straight leg with a long rise, roomier through the thigh than the brand's slim cuts. Expect a slouched, low-slung look rather than a tapered one.
Is the denim rigid or stretchy?
It is rigid, non-stretch denim. It holds its shape and fades, but it is stiff at first and takes time to soften.
How should I care for the distressing and raw hems?
Wash cold and sparingly, inside out, and air dry. Machine drying speeds up fraying at the distressed spots and hems.
Will the raw hems fray more over time?
Yes, some fraying is part of the design. Trimming loose threads keeps it controlled, but the hems will keep shedding slightly with wear.
Do the jeans run long?
They are cut with a long inseam meant to stack over boots. Shorter wearers usually need to hem them.
What is in the box?
Just the jeans. No belt, no extra hardware and no garment bag are included.
