Painter Pants Denim / Black Denim
A true icon of American workwear, the painter pants have been reimagined through BONCOURA’s lens. Originally designed for painters, carpenters, and craftsmen, these pants were built for practicality and durability. While staying true to their workwear heritage, BONCOURA has refined the silhouette and materials with a contemporary approach.
Commitment to Fabric
The fabric is woven using BONCOURA’s original Ike Cotton denim, meticulously developed from the selection of raw cotton, fiber blend, and spinning techniques. Featuring a deep indigo rope-dyed process, the fabric achieves a rich, dark hue. Woven on BONCOURA’s special-spec vintage shuttle looms, it boasts a heavier 15oz weight, giving it a rugged texture that contrasts with the lighter ounce vintage painter pants. This robust construction ensures a unique patina and character that develop beautifully over time.
For the Black Denim, BONCOURA has applied a rope-dyeing technique, setting it apart from conventional vintage black denim, which is typically dyed through to the core. With traditional "piece-dyed" black denim, fading is minimal, but BONCOURA’s approach maintains a white core, allowing for a fading process similar to classic indigo denim. Over time, the fabric reveals a striking contrast, creating a distinct aged effect. Additionally, BONCOURA’s exclusive dye formulation gives the fabric a rich, deep black with a nuanced depth that evolves beautifully with wear.
With its 15oz weight, BONCOURA’s Ike Cotton denim provides superior durability. As it wears, high-contrast fades and creases emerge, embodying the rugged character of vintage workwear while introducing BONCOURA’s signature depth of texture.
Details

BONCOURA’s Painter Pants preserve the essence of vintage workwear while refining it with modern fabric and construction techniques. As you wear them, they evolve into a one-of-a-kind piece, shaped by your lifestyle.
