Minus One

Minus One focuses on one thing done precisely: straight-fit denim with a Nordic edge. Dark, workwear-adjacent washes and clean lines keep these jeans in rotation across weekday and weekend. Each pair sits comfortably between classic five-pocket jeans and the sharper denim you style with tailoring.

Minus One

The Minus One collection on TheList centres on straight-fit denim with a controlled attitude. Washes run from super dark and clean to Nordic-worn blacks and greys, giving you options that work with boots, derbies, or minimal sneakers. The cuts read easy and everyday, but the proportions feel considered enough to sit under a sharp coat or over a stacked boot.

Within this tight edit, you can build a reliable rotation without chasing trends. Styles like The One Jean move from office to evening with a change of shoe, while Nordic-inspired washes skew more casual without feeling distressed. Use the darker, clean finishes as your pairing for structured outerwear and knitwear from popular brands like Jil Sander, Acne Studios, or The Row.

  • Straight-leg silhouettes that balance room and structure
  • Dark and grey washes suited to year-round wear
  • Versatile enough for tees, shirting, and tailoring
  • Curated from authorized stockists with full provenance

FAQ

How does Minus One denim typically fit?
Minus One jeans in this edit follow a straight-fit block with a clean line through the leg. They are designed to feel structured without being tight, making them easy to style with both sneakers and boots. Check each product page for specific fit notes and measurements before choosing your size.
Are Minus One jeans suitable for office wear?
Yes, several Minus One styles use super dark or clean black washes that pair well with shirting and unstructured blazers. The minimal detailing keeps them appropriate for more relaxed offices while still reading considered. Opt for the darker, non-worn finishes if you want the most versatile desk-to-dinner option.
How should I style the Nordic-inspired straight-fit jeans?
The Nordic-inspired washes work well with heavyweight knits, technical outerwear, and utilitarian footwear. You can lean into a cleaner look with a crisp poplin shirt or play up the workwear reference with overshirts and chunky soles. The straight leg makes them easy to stack slightly over boots without excess pooling.
What size should I choose in Minus One jeans?
Select your usual designer denim size as a starting point, then confirm using the size chart and measurements on each product page. If a style runs long, short, or relaxed, we call that out in our fit notes so you can decide whether to stay true or move up or down. If you sit between sizes, consider how you prefer jeans to sit at the waist and hem.
How do I care for dark-wash Minus One jeans?
To maintain colour and surface, wash dark-wash jeans as infrequently as your wear pattern allows and always follow the care label. Turn them inside out, use a gentle cycle with cool water, and avoid harsh detergents. Air dry flat or on a hanger to keep the leg line intact and reduce unwanted creasing.
