The True Religion Denim Difference

Oct 21, 2024

They have a cult following, distinctive stitches and, if you’ve ever slipped on a pair, you can tell that they’re made with luxe denim that you won’t find just anywhere. Founded in 2002, True Religion jeans have set themselves apart in the denim industry. Here’s everything you need to know about True Religion pants, their unique stitching, sizing and ways to style them.

Denim Beginnings

Denim Beginnings

The early and mid-2000s were a game-changer for denim fashion. Remember Britney and Justin rocking those iconic matching denim outfits? True Religion jeans stood out in the crowded market with their unique stitching techniques. Their signature machine stitching made True Religion jeans instantly recognizable and set the stage for other creative stitch styles. The Big T stitch, with its three-thread design, offered a bold look, while the Single Needle stitch featured a half-inch gap between stitches. The most iconic, the Super T heavy-duty stitch, used five threads for a standout style.

As time went on, True Religion expanded into more colorful threads. Today, you can find their jeans with white stitching, as well as vibrant reds, blues, browns, and even rainbow colors. Beyond their signature stitching, True Religion incorporates several well-known logos in their collections, from intricate horseshoes and flame designs to their Buddha character strumming a guitar.

Embracing the Y2K Aesthetic

Thanks to Gen Z’s love of Y2K fashion, True Religion is back in a big way, retaining that laidback, OG aesthetic. Their pieces echo the iconic denim pants and shorts from back in the day. You’ll find pants featuring brushstrokes of color, bold detailing, and thick stitching.

And if you’re lucky enough to have parents who kept their early-2000s True Religion double-stitch jeans, you can add those “vintage” pairs to your looks.

True Religion jeans typically run true to size, but some styles can fit a bit smaller or larger depending on the cut and fabric. If you can, try them on before you buy, especially since different styles can fit differently. It’s also a good idea to consider how stretchy the material is; some have more give than others.
