JOHN ELLIOTT
Design Aesthetic - Clean, Minimal, Sportswear, Texture
Key Styles - Cast 2 Denim, Mercer Tee, Escobar Sweatpants, Hooded Villain, Kake Mock Pullover, Vintage Fleece
About
When John Elliott was 8 years old, he sent his design sketches to Nike. Nike sent back a letter, politely declining the young designer’s submissions. This letter now serves as a source of inspiration for the designer and his collections. Fast forward to the present, John Elliott works on an eponymous menswear line and has collaborated with Nike on 3 sneakers.
John Elliott was formed in 2012 as a concept between the designer and his best friend Aaron Lavee, who serves as the brand’s CEO. In his early days, John worked closely with Simon Miller, who is best known for his intricate work at Fabric Brand. Through Simon, John met Nobu Yamamoto, who plays a large role in sourcing and developing fabrics for the brand. With the help of Simon and Nobu, John Elliott put together his first menswear collection in the spring of 2013.
The LA-based designer is best known for his meticulous approach towards details and fit. Each season, John is known to experiment with new fabrics. In Instagram posts, he cites frequent trips to Japan as an outlet allowing him to develop new textures and textiles. The majority of the John Elliott is produced in Los Angeles and Japan using custom-knit fabrics and RiRi zippers. John works closely with his production facility in Los Angeles overseeing all aspects of development.
The vision of each collection is to refine American Sportswear through a contemporary lens. John Elliott has taken trips to Vietnam, Berlin, and Joshua Tree to draw inspiration for his collection. The designer has presented his collection during both New York Fashion Week and Paris Fashion Week. The most recent runway collections featured collaborations between the designer and Blackmeans Japan, Nike, and Suicoke. For his FW18 Collection, John Elliott introduced his highly anticipated womenswear line.
Mainline + Collection
John Elliott splits his line into 2 categories - Mainline and Collection.
Mainline includes any item in Black, White, and Grey. You can expect items in these 3 colors to restock regularly from time to time. The most common mainline items are tees, sweatshirts, and sweatpants.
Collection pieces can either be mainline items produced in seasonal colors or specific items made exclusively the runway (ie: SRD Parachute Jacket). Collection pieces are hardly restocked so the general consensus is to buy them during the season in which they release.

Fabrics
French Terry
JE knits its French terry in the United States to custom specifications. You will most prominently see this fabric used on sweatshirts and sweatpants. JE terry is known for its comfort and durable fabric.
Jersey
The unique blend of premium supima cotton-jersey and micro modal allows JE tees to drape well and maintain a soft hand-feel. During Season 10, JE introduced tees featuring 100% cotton blends.
Denim
JE has released three cuts of denim - Cast 1, Cast 2, and The Kane. The Cast 1 and Kane are made of 100% cotton. On the other hand, Cast 2 is made using 3x1 stretch (98% cotton, 2% stretch) Japanese denim. 3x1 denim refers to the tight weave of the denim - 3 warp threads for every 1 weft thread.
RiRi Zippers
RiRi is arguably the best zipper brand around. These zippers are imported from Switzerland and known for their smooth glide. All John Elliott pieces with zippers use RiRi.
Seasonal Fabrics
John Elliott likes to experiment with new fabrics each season. Below are some fabrics he has used.
Co-Mix
This is a custom-blend fabric resulting in a thicker tee. The hand feel of co-mix most closely resembles that of a light-weight knit sweater. This fabric is used on select JE tees and hoodies.
Gauze Terry
This fabric was developed during Season 8 to reflect the weathered, destroyed feel of the Berlin Wall. The unique texture is a mixture of cotton wool and French terry.
Loopwheel French Terry
John Elliott has released two loopwheel collections. The first release consisted of a Hooded Villain, Flash Dual Fullzip, and Escobar Sweatpants. The most recent release features a Kake Mock Pullover and Ebisu Sweatpants. Loopwheel French Terry is known for its soft, durable hand feel. It is noticeably thicker than standard French terry. The fabric is exclusively knit in Wakayama, Japan utilizing a looming technique that can no longer be found in modern production.
Pile Terry
This fabric was introduced during Season 9 in the Oversized Cropped Hoodie and Oversized Sweats. The fabric is a melange loop terry that most resembles the softness of a beach towel.
Purl Knit
The fabric is described on JE’s website as an Austrian, marled knit fabric. It was used on an Oversized Pocket Tee that released during Season 9. The tee is considered a JE grail due to its unique softness, especially for a knit.
Vintage Fleece
John Elliott's softest French Terry to date. As states on the website, it came from the idea of trying to create the perfect vintage terry piece, that would look sun-drenched. The fabric draws cues from 1950’s era Champion fleece.

Denim
Different from most denim brands, JE denim undergoes a unique wash process called “dry wash” where no water is used in distressing the denim. JE Denim fits very similar to SLP. The subtle details on JE denim are its layered pockets, button fly, and custom rise featuring a higher rise in the back and lower rise in the front.
Styles
Cast 1
The Cast 1 is a slim-fit jean made of 100% cotton selvedge denim. The denim is made in LA.
Cast 2
The Cast 2 is an updated slim-fit jean made of 98% cotton, 2% stretch denim. The denim is made in Japan using Japanese denim.
The Kane
This is a new fit from JE beginning with FW17. It is a straight-fit denim made in Japan.
Sizing
True to size. My waist size is 30” and I am a size 30 in JE’s Cast 2, SLP D02, and Acne Ace jeans.
Keep in mind that JE denim is very tapered and has a narrow leg opening and fits similar to SLP D02. There is 2% stretch in the denim so your pair should be a bit tight in the waist when you purchase it, but after a few wears it should mold perfectly.
Other than The Cast 2 Dillon Indigo and Silent, John Elliott denim fits true to size. For The Cast 2 Dillon Indigo and Silent, it is recommended that you size up 1.

Footwear
John Elliott footwear is made in Montegranaro, Italy and features a custom molded sole. Each pair of shoes comes with a nice JE dustbag.
While JE has his own shoe collection, he’s collaborated with Nike on 3 pairs of shoes - Lebron 12, Lebron Soldier 10, and NikeLab Vandal High. In SS18, John Elliott also debuted an exclusive collaboration with Nike on the mush discussed Air Monarch.
