The company name is derived from the word “purpose,” but it’s pronounced by its initials, and its jeans retail for upwards of $200, though the very top of the range — available in Asia only in Japan and Hong Kong — will set you back about $1,040.
At first glance, the jeans don’t seem that different from any other pair. Their most distinctive features are the brass studs around the waistband area. But each pair is custom fit and must be ordered two months in advance.
Donwan Harrel, PRPS’s owner/designer — his business card actually lists his title as “toilet cleaner” — says there’s ample reasoning behind the high price tag. He explains why he thinks the right pair of jeans can be just as expensive as a three-piece suit:
30 treatments: “The leather label in the back of the jean alone takes two days to create,” says Mr. Harrel. “The lambskin is washed, hand-oiled and hung out to dry individually so that no two leather patches are the same.”

Raw materials: Organic cotton is sourced from Zimbabwe — this denim has a carbon footprint large enough to match its price tag — for its ability to hold onto the indigo coloring. The cotton fades less than regular cotton and soaks up more coloring to achieve a richer shade.
“Slub”: The company ships yarn to Kojima in Japan, where it is woven on antique Levi Strauss & Co. looms that produce irregular “slubs,” or slightly thicker naps on the twill or yarn — almost like miniknots.
“Like the rings of a tree, you can tell the ‘life story’ of a denim by looking at the irregularities. You don’t want perfection,” says Mr. Harrel. “These irregularities will make for more interesting fading patterns as the jeans become more worn-in.
Studs: Instead of lighter enamel studs, Mr. Harrel opted to go with the heavy 100% brass ones because of the way they age and change.
