German streetwear brand Vicinity, founded around 2020 and known for its blend of subcultural style and modular design, has built a strong reputation for its denim line. Their jeans collection captures a distinctive balance: oversized silhouettes, industrial attitude, and a palette rooted in classic denim tones.
Key silhouettes include the Baggy Denim Raw Blue, a loose-fit, relaxed jean with a vintage feel, and the Volume Denim Raw Black, which delivers structure without stiffness. There are also creative washes and colorways like “Veil,” “Terra,” and “Mudd Brown,” each reflecting the brand’s commitment to wide-ranging expression and accessibility. Importantly, all of Vicinity’s denim is priced affordably (around €79.99), positioning the pieces as premium streetwear without guilt.
From a design perspective, Vicinity leans into contrast: clean tailoring meets raw denim texture, producing jeans that look intentional and modern. The wide, sculptural cuts are a nod to both utility and comfort, rooted in street style but engineered for movement.
As a brand, Vicinity is also known for its modular system, emblematic of its willingness to innovate. While they have a global reach through their Shopify storefront, customer reviews suggest a mixed experience: many praise quality and design, but some note delays in order processing.
