Founded in Montpellier, France, in 1964 and established in Italy in 1968, Shaft Jeans merges French origins with a deep-rooted Italian production identity. The brand was acquired in 2004 by Francesca Bacci, a veteran of the denim industry, who now runs the Florence-based company alongside her children. With a design philosophy inspired by 1970s rebellion and nonconformity, Shaft is particularly known for its signature flared jeans, which feature in every collection. The brand’s identity is a mix of American denim heritage and sophisticated Italian craftsmanship, resulting in timeless yet contemporary garments.
