From street vendors peddling handmade t-shirts and surf wear in the late 80’s, the Canadian born twin’s known as Chip & Pepper have survived swiftly moving trend changes and bankruptcy to excel in the jean market with their trademark washed out denim, or “distressed” denim as it’s known around the industry. Chip And Pepper Jeans are usually boot cut style, high quality denim with a worn look. Light weight and comfortable, their jeans are priced in line with similar designer wear like Diesel and 7 For All Mankind brands.
Gone are the days of peddling their wears up front and in person, Chip And Pepper Jeans are sold and upscale store’s like Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Markus as well as other specialty stores. The figure flattering jean line was presented to the public back in 2003. Since then, Chip & Pepper’s high end line have been showcased in women’s magazines like Vogue, Cosmo and Elle and are getting a lot of attention from the biggest retailers on the planet.
