To make the most durable work denim possible, we turned to the strongest lightweight fiber in the world. The newest addition to the Patagonia Workwear line, our Steel Forge Denim blends 92% organic cotton with 8% Dyneema®, a fiber that's light enough to float on water but 15 times stronger than steel. It's used in crane slings, tow ropes and anchor cables, and now it's helping us fuse a traditional fabric with advanced technology to build a more durable material that will withstand years of demanding work.
Hard-working and lighter weight
Like most hands-on tasks, the requirements for work clothing have stayed much the same over the years: Let you lift, move, heave and haul while keeping the elements at bay. Whether it’s innovative hemp blends or tough and warm synthetics, Patagonia Workwear is built for comfort, ease of motion and long-lasting durability.
