With not just one, or two, but three successful Kickstarters under their belt, Dish & DUER is showing the world what happens when fashion meets function.

It all starts with Gary Lenett and Abid Hafeez. One a performance fabric pro and the other, a fashion industry veteran, both with 25 years of experience.

Together the two have been producing men’s (and women’s) apparel suitable for everyone from bike commuters to everyday adventurers, professional athletes and beyond.

Curious to see what the buzz was about, I decided to give their Performance Denim jeans and No Sweat pants a try. Both left me surprisingly impressed and in a state of serene comfort.

I’ll tell you more about each below.

Men’s Heritage Wash Performance Denim Relaxed Jeans Review

DUER’s Performance denim jeans don’t feel heavy at all, however, the construction is about as tough as it gets.

Regardless of where you look, there’s double and triple stitching virtually everywhere on these jeans. Add in a gusseted crotch for preventing blow outs and double layered rear pockets and you’ve got exceptional durability.

In terms of stretch-ability, these relaxed denim jeans are out of this world. You can literally grab a handful of the denim/spandex and pull it away from your body not a few inches, but more like six or more. It’s truly amazing how much these jeans will stretch out if you tug hard enough. Best of all, the moment you let go, they revert back to the original non-stretched position.
