“You’re doing what?!”
In March 2025, David made the first-ever locally-made denim in Tulsa, OK, and turned it into a jacket. Hand-dyed. Handwoven. Historic.
To our knowledge, it’s the first fully handwoven denim jacket made in the U.S. since at least the 1700s.
This project was supported by the Artists Creative Fund.
We thought that might be the high point. It wasn’t.
Since then, we’ve been building momentum. Here’s a taste!
Bespoke Handwoven Denim Work/Wear Jacket
Because you asked.
If you know BZRO, you know we like to keep it fun (and a lil' weird). We offer In the Shop: Puppetry hands-on workshops to build puppets, explore character development and movement for TV/film puppetry, and learn from David's decades of puppetry building and performing experience!
Oh, and…
This is just the beginning.
Our dream is to bring back the heart of American-made denim (and other garment textiles!)—fabric and craftsmanship that’s sustainable, made with care, and rich in history.
We hope you'll come along for the ride. 💙
