Glenn’s Denim emerged in 2012 from a collaboration between veteran tailor Glenn Liburd and Daniel Lewis. Liburd applies heritage techniques to create custom-fit jeans reflecting Tribeca’s artisanal denim culture.
Experience the story and craftsmanship behind Glenn’s Denim—a New York-based brand dedicated to authentic American jeans, small-batch production, and a master’s touch in every detail.
Founded by Glenn Liburd in 2019 after decades of experience as a patternmaker, tailor, and denim craftsman, Glenn’s Denim is rooted in the traditions of American workwear and the cultural movements of 1970s and 80s New York. Every piece is designed and manufactured in Glenn’s own NYC workroom, with a focus on uncompromising quality and a deep respect for denim’s heritage.
Signature Aesthetic:
Glenn’s Denim is known for its classic five-pocket silhouettes, sturdy construction, and minimal branding. The visual identity is both vintage-inspired and contemporary, with a focus on the character and texture of selvedge and non-selvedge denim.
