Amiri MX1 Suede Brown Patch Jeans Black

These are the Amiri MX1 Suede Brown Patch Jeans in black, a skinny black denim jean with brown suede panels set behind the shredded knees and thigh. They're for someone who wants Amiri's signature destroyed-denim look in a dark, wearable colorway rather than a louder printed or painted pair.

The MX1 is the style the Los Angeles label is best known for. The black denim is opened up at both knees and the upper leg, and soft brown suede inserts back each blowout so the leg stays covered instead of fully exposed. The rest is kept plain — belt loops, a coin pocket, tonal black stitching, a single waist button — so the contrast between the dark denim and the warm tan suede carries the whole pair. Cut skinny and tapered through the leg, they sit easily under boots or chunky sneakers and work as the loud piece in an otherwise simple outfit.

What separates these from a generic ripped jean is how the suede is handled: it's built in as a panel behind the denim rather than stitched on as a surface patch, which is the detail that made the MX1 Amiri's calling card. Offered here in a size 33. Buy it if you want the Amiri jean people recognize on sight, in black with tan suede.
