Kill City Hi Wire Skinny in Shadow Wash on Denimology

I’m definitely not stranger to punk or rock-inspired apparel…that was basically me, back in high school! I had the band, I listened to metal, and I dressed the part. Unfortunately back then, I was limited to second-hand stores and an out-of-town Hot Topic I was only lucky enough to visit once. Today, my sense of style is vastly different, although the spirit slightly remains. I love rock n’ roll inspired fashion, because I feel it’s timeless, and works with any season…and it gives me that edge when I feel like it! One of my favorite brands that captures this rebel feel is Kill City, for their wide variety of unique jeans and apparel that give you that “I’m with the band” feel or make you want to start a band yourself. Today I’m excited to bring you a Kill City Hi Wire Skinny in Shadow Wash review!

Kill City is rooted and manufactured in Los Angeles and inspired by punk and alternative music and the sub-cultures within them. The brand states, “Stemming from New Wave Punk to Indie and contemporary music genres like Acid Folk and Post-Rock, Kill City provides clothing that supports these lifestyles. Consequently, Kill City has become synonymous with fashion forward designs adding a contemporary twist. Our philosophy is to produce intricately made fashionable pieces with distinctive silhouettes and vibrant colors that reflect today’s evolving interests and cultural influences—all while maintaining an affordable price point for the fashion savvy consumer.” Rock on. I have one other pair of Kill City jeans I got off Hautelook awhile back…a pretty dark grey jean with an ombre wash that lightens up towards the ankles. I wore them when out on DJ gigs! They were a size 27, and a little loose, so when I got the opportunity to review the Hi Wire Skinny I went with my current size of 26. I chose the Shadow Wash because I have black skinny jeans, and light grey, but nothing charcoal-like, so I thought it would be fun to review something different. When I received these in the mail, the color was just like it shows on the website. As mentioned, they are a dark charcoal grey, but with a fade and whiskering. I love the look!

The Patchwork Denim Trend With Kill City

Just like your favorite jeans in their torn, very worn-in, ready-to-toss state gained “in” status with the influx of pre-torn jeans entering the market, patchwork jeans bring in a new side to the “rip ‘n repair” side of things…patches used to be whatever fabric scraps your mother could find when you fell off your bicycle and ripped a hole in your overalls as a bright-eyed and bushy tailed kid. However, mismatched patchwork designs are now a denim trend, and have been for quite some time, but I’m seeing them emerge again, primarily in the ever-so-trendy (and comfortable) boyfriend jean model. I’m not always so partial to it but I thought I’d give it a go with one of my favorite brands, Kill City. I adore the simple, edgy and sometimes goth-rockstar their pieces look! So, I did a quick sweep of their current selection to see what I could pair with their take on the patchwork style, the Boyfriend-Patched Vintage Wash Stretch Denim jeans, to see how I could bring the style to worn-out to worn-in and ready to hit the town!
