Oxford's Original Approved denim receives its biggest upgrade since the range launched in the form of the new Sofia jean. From improved Dynamic 2.0 protectors and using more comfortable denim, the Sofia delivers original denim styling combined with CE AA rated protection.

Enhanced Dynamic 2.0 protectors provide an improved contour fit around the knees and hips, complimented by knee protector pockets that allow full adjustability of protector positioning, ensuring a perfect fit for every wearer.

As part of Oxford's Sustainability Initiative, a significant amount of research and development has gone into the reducing our denim's environmental impact.

A sustainable wash and laser finishing process avoids the use of extra chemicals, fully removes the need for potassium permanganate and eliminates several washing and rinsing cycles. This technique consumes much less water than the industry standard and eliminates stones and heavy chemicals to create the vintage wash effect.
