Farkkusauma was born out of a deep love for denim and a commitment to sustainable fashion. Founded by Eila, a lifelong denim enthusiast, the company embodies the spirit of the 1970s when jeans became a symbol of youth and rebellion. Eila’s passion for denim, rock music, and dance has been the driving force behind Farkkusauma’s unique approach to fashion.

Farkkusauma is a Finnish word and translates as seam of denim. Located in Jyväskylä’s Tourukeskus, our store is a hub of creativity and sustainability. Farkkusauma is more than just a store; it’s a community of like-minded individuals who share a passion for denim and sustainable fashion. Join us in our journey to make the world a better place, one pair of jeans at a time.
