Traditional denim is made from cotton indigo-dyed warp yarns interwoven with natural-colored weft yarns in a three-up one downright twill pattern. It is generally classified as light, medium, or heavy. Light cloth weighs 200-340g/m² (6-10oz/square yard), medium cloth weighs 340-450g/m² (10-13oz/square yard), heavy cloth weighs 450g or more yarn thickness; heavy 7 x 6, medium 10 x 10, light 12 x 12 (British) or more. The width of the cloth is mostly between 114-152cm.

What is the best denim?

Denim is a thick, thick cotton fabric in indigo blue. Although it is cotton, why is it different from the cotton we usually come across? Well, that's because denim is made from cotton with a shrinkage treatment, so it shrinks by almost half compared to normal cotton fabric, so it feels tighter to the touch!

Currently, the more common denim fabrics would be stretch fabrics. This is because a lot of the time, with denim, we like how it fits, which helps create the perfect shape. But if it's a plain cotton fabric that's lost its stretch, it loses the effect of shaping your figure!

Denim in the bamboo fabric is also very popular with young people. This is because this kind of denim, if washed turns into a different kind of check. Checked clothes are particularly popular these two years, and they look classic and generous! There is another type of denim that is a clever combination of stretch and bamboo fabric. This is spandex. The use of a mixture of spandex and bamboo spandex makes for tighter denim, and checks have been particularly popular and have become the driving force behind people buying denim!

The surface of good denim is generally simple, without too much fuss, but in various lines and clear patterns, without other impurities, and without giving you a bad feeling. Generally speaking, we can easily see the pros and cons of denim. If your denim smells bad and feels uncomfortable to wear, then it's not good quality!
