hey product hunt! I'm kevin, one of the founders at unspun. We just launched a really cool iphone app to scan yourself and shop for bespoke denim- any chance we could convince you to try it out and give us some testflight feedback? :) Why we think we could be your new favorite denim brand: ⚡️ we're equal parts fashion & tech Not just a nerdy button-up company or bland "brand" for accountants. :) We convinced Levi's Head of Design to jump ship after we blew his mind, and we're already launching brand collabs with some of the world's biggest denim labels. 🏅 our jeans are really, really (really) good I guess it'd be embarrassing if they weren't, but don't take our word for it. No two customers ever get the same pants; these are built to your actual waist, hips, thighs, calf, ankles… all unique to you. If you've been wearing pajama pants for the last year and think hard pants are dead, we're your plug. And if you still end up not liking them, we'll always take them back! As of writing this, our Mode dashboard for our "nailed it first try" rate for Q2 is 93%. 🤓 🏭 we're really f*cking worried about climate change, and bet you are too Our brand (maybe you'll recognize our color scheme) is the rallying flag we wave on our mission towards creating a 1% reduction in global CO2 emissions, and we get there by helping the fashion industry only make what they really need. Typically, about 20% of all apparel production each year gets shredded or burned without ever being sold (literally gigaton-scale carbon emissions, just in making sh*t we didn't need). ICYMI, Chris Sacca had some great tweets on this shared attitude over the weekend. 🔥 🗺 we've got a pretty cool master plan for how we make an impact We use our small brand as the concept car to win awards and ruffle feathers, and that sends the big brands (with their executive pay tied to sustainability targets) knocking on our door. We then power the same zero-inventory process for them (yes we're a fashion company with a SaaS product lol), which adds some commas to the tons of waste they can divert, their ultimate profits, and, yes— also our revenue. Our on-demand manufacturing (and soon, localized & automated manufacturing… but more on that in a future product hunt launch 🤫) ties profitability to sustainability, which we think is the best shot we have at driving meaningful progress fast enough. If you're willing to help us break things and find bugs, we'll send a 20% off code to anyone here that wants to try out our app and will share some feedback with us after they get their jeans (in your hands in ~a month). Our jeans are normally $200, but we guarantee them for life & will always repair them (or get you a discount if you someday wear them into the ground and it's time for new ones). Thanks so much for trying us out! You can always connect with us on our website, or iMessage us too if that's more your jam. 😎

I absolutely LOVE unspun jeans. I bought my first pair some two years ago, and since then, I’m not buying jeans other than theirs! My legs are a bit disproportionate in size with more fat on my thighs. I just can’t believe how comfy their jeans could be before I tried them on. The fact that they’re tailor made to your size is just unbeatable. Goodness! I’m never gonna buy jeans elsewhere again. Most importantly, I feel good when wearing their jeans cos I know I’ve contributed my part in protecting the environment.
Kevin Martin
@tingtingmak :) Thanks so much for stopping by, Kai! You're the best! 🙌
Beth Esponnette
@tingtingmak we love making you jeans! ❤️
Joanna Mak
No kidding , I literally wear it every day… cannot go back to the off-the-shelf jeans
Kevin Martin
@joanna_mak unspun wouldn't exist without your support, no question 🙌 thanks so much! :)
Beth Esponnette
@joanna_mak and you're worth so much more than ots jeans! 🙌🏽
Amy Tsang
My loose fit jeans arrived yesterday. Most perfect fitting jeans I’ve ever bought. Looks and feels great, worth every penny AND better for our planet - what more could one ask for?! Highly recommend.
Kevin Martin
@amy_tsang1 dawwww ❤️ thank you! :)
Beth Esponnette
@amy_tsang1 They look SO good!
Josh Santos
i wish unspun could make every aspect of my wardrobe - the jeans are hands-down the best single article of clothing i own. if you don't own a pair yet, stop what you're doing this second, download this app, and go buy a pair. i swear i'm not a ghost agent of unspun or anything i just really love the jeans and konw you will too 👖
Beth Esponnette
@josh_santos we wish we could make every aspect of your wardrobe too! One day... Thanks so much for letting us make you your custom-fit jeans 🙌🏽
Walden Lam
We started unspun because no one was happy - customers couldn't find fitting products, brands sit on massive dead-stock and the world is burning down. We thought a beautiful product and a ultra-convenient experience, created on-demand in a low-impact way makes so much sense 👖 🌍 🚀

Maia Mah
I’ve been the biggest fan of unspun’s product since the beginning. As a eco-warrior and fashion lover, I’ve always struggled to find a win-win situation for the planet and myself. unspun’s jeans and technology are truly revolutionary for not only environmentalists but also everyday consumers who wish to find the most fitting and comfortable jeans in the world!👖🌏❤️
Kevin Martin
@maia_mah Maia! That means the world, thanks so much. :)
Beth Esponnette
@maia_mah you're the ultimate eco-warrior + fashion lover! 💪🏽💚

@waldenlam the feeling is mutual (:
Wong Oscar
I own 2 pairs of unspun jeans and could not ask for better - the bespoke choice of fabric, cuts guided by the friendly folks of the team just made the whole shopping experience superb. They are ultra comfy to wear and extremely durable. Most importantly, as an environmentalist I do hope that the technology could revolutionize the industry to reduce waste! :D
Kevin Martin
@wong_oscar 🙌 🙌 🙌 Q: if you're a frequent jeans wearer, would you wear denim shorts too? We just launched those, and seems to be quite the split between "yes absolutely" and "no, never" 😂
Wong Oscar
@kevinmart_in Haha demin shorts are just not my thing - though it'll be great if we will have some unspun denim shirts in the future!
Beth Esponnette
@wong_oscar Thanks for seeing and living and breathing the big picture!! We need more people like you. 💪🏽
Natalie Karakina
Love that you think about climate change
Beth Esponnette
@nataliekarakina you mean lose sleep over it?!? Thank you so much for your support!
Sara Rahiminejad
I have a pair of jeans already. The virtual fit call went great, Unspun were super helpful and it was super easy to scan your body on the phone. I have checked out their new releases of new models and I am super excited to get my next pair! So hard to choose between the many beautiful styles though!
Kevin Martin
@sara_rahiminejad Ohhh, did you do the virtual video call with our fit specialists? At first, that was just going to be a covid thing... but we've kept it even afterwards, because it's often times just so much easier than coming in. And especially now that we have an app! :)
Julia Wilhelmsson
I love the quality, comfort and versatility of my Unspun jeans, and I wear them when dressing up as well as in the couch for movie night. I also love that it is super easy and FUN to scan and design your unique pair of jeans! Recommend you to try them :)
Kevin Martin
@julia_wilhelmsson which ones do you have? I'm hitting almost 300 wears in my midnight blue and know it's almost time for a new pair, but they're so soft now...haha
Julia Wilhelmsson
@kevinmart_in I have the Mission fit in black :)
Beth Esponnette
@julia_wilhelmsson amazing choice!! 🙌🏽 And thank you so much for trying us out, we can never thank you enough.
Sophie van Duren
Definitely my best 2 fitted jeans ever, they both fit like a glove and my favourite to wear. Would recommend everyone to get their own unspun jeans.
Beth Esponnette
@sophievanduren we're with you 110%, thanks so much for trying us out!! ❤️
Jon Glassberg
Obsessed with Unspun! Favorite jeans.

I have bought 5 pairs of Unpsun in the last 2 years. It never disappoints me! The jeans are always perfectly fit and the fabric is amazing!
Kevin Martin
@nick_cheng1 Haha omg, one of the OGs! 🙌 Would love to see a photo of the oldest ones... we've made quite a few updates since then. 🤓
