1999 (c.) Helmut Lang Raw Silk Denim Classic Boot Cut – Size 28
Rare archival Helmut Lang Raw Silk Denim Classic Boot Cut jeans, dating to circa 1999.
An exceptional example from Helmut Lang's golden era, featuring the coveted cotton/silk raw denim blend that develops a unique texture and character with wear. Made in Italy with the brand's signature minimalist five-pocket construction, engraved HELMUT LANG NY hardware, button fly, and the iconic angular back pockets synonymous with late-1990s Helmut Lang denim.
Unlike standard denim, the 91% cotton / 9% silk fabric has a crisp hand feel with a subtle slubby texture, making this one of the more desirable archive fabric compositions produced by the label.

Condition
Very good vintage condition overall with light signs of wear consistent with age. There is a visible light mark/discoloration on the front left leg (pictured). I have not attempted to clean or treat it, so I cannot confirm whether it is removable. Please refer to all photos before purchasing.
A beautiful and increasingly hard-to-find pair from one of the most influential periods in Helmut Lang's archive.
