Juxtapose

The Juxtapose collection introduces surprising new variations on the award- winning Gluejeans principle, where denim is glued rather than stitched. Gluejeans was founded by Gerrit Uittenbogaard and Natasja Martens, otherwise known as G+N.

The Juxtapose collection consists of a ladies ‘reverse’ denim coat, a men’s ‘reverse’ jacket and new jeans models. A worldwide first is the release of a glued leather coat — a sleek material takes on a rough and direct look. Also new with this collection are different colours of seam glue.

Juxtapose allows for different materials and production techniques to co-exist, visually unified with the Gluejeans technique. Strikingly graphic, the Gluejeans technique radiates a simple, rough and direct quality, while at the same time being very durable. Handmade in the Netherlands, each piece has a unique and individual character.
