About the original
Marithé + François Girbaud is a French denim brand founded in 1969 by the husband-and-wife designers whose name it carries, credited with introducing stonewashing, acid wash, and the baggy jean silhouette to commercial fashion. The brand's X-seam is an inseam construction that eliminates the traditional crotch seam in favor of a continuous diamond-shaped gusset panel, removing pressure points and allowing a wider seat and thigh without excess fabric at the knee. Girbaud denim, particularly the X-seam baggy, was ubiquitous in 1990s and early-2000s American hip-hop and streetwear. The SS25 Supreme version is a co-branded X-seam baggy jean with additional Supreme labeling; current Girbaud production is available at girbaud.com.

Girbaud's baggy silhouettes were ubiquitous in 1990s American hip-hop and sportswear, and the brand has been revived in recent years with current production available at girbaud.com. Supreme has collaborated with Marithé + François Girbaud on co-branded denim and outerwear referencing the brand's 1990s archive.
