DENIM uh makers.

Anyone know of a company that will do small orders of denim? Quality.

[urban sprawl]

depends which country and how much you wanna pay or sell them for.

I´m located in Berlin, Germany. Here is a shop located that did their own jeans made of cone mills red selvedge, also here is a shop selling cone mills red selvedge denim per meter. I have to say both is original cone mills denim. Like that? I have heard the cone mills per meter is affordable. You´ll need like 10m for one single pant.

I thought selvage denim was 3-4 yards per jean? Am I mistaken?

Evolution Global, I would be very interested in purchasing that denim, can you help me?

You're not mistaken.

First, i guess i´ll not be able to make money on this, so i could help you with any information i have: Visit www.rock-a-tiki.com, they now finally opened their online shop last week.

Btw, official LVC Seller, also Lee and APC in stock. That´s also the shop creating own jeans out of cone mills, three years so far. Always cone mills, far as i know. And that isn´t too much.

Well priced shop, i bought the 1955 501 for a good price. There is only Rock-a-Ticki and a shop called "Buttenheim" in Berlin (BTW:Germany) selling best denims . Whatever.

Best they can get, i guess. And i love it. I prefer Rock-a-Tiki because of their nice contact/service. They help you out with anything you need, products or information.

Anyway, the cone mills denim is sellout, got to make clear. As i or we all know cone mills isn´t producing anymore. So visit the webshop for their own collection if interested.

I can hook you up with contact info for the pure cone mills denim, if interested and anything left. It´s like a secret, i guess. So nor the people living here or the tourists with the big wallets will "steal" any denim from the market here... Drop me a mail or post to topic, as you prefer.

And please note : This is just my 2nd post plus i´m german, so don´t mind any faults or wrong spelling... Hope all is fine. I like this board.

Im in the US. Trying to find some sort of balance between quality and price. Somebody else mentioned Mexico?

[andewhall]

Yeah your right, depends on the waistband. If not pretty much two times the length, 2.4m dont know what that is in yards. Front and backs lined up along the selvage and the waist band and other peices cut from the middle section.

I have also been looking for some sweet selvage denim. I contacted Kihara and Itadenim, but the minumum order was approx 4000-5000 yards, which worked out to be 20g+. Really nice stuff though. If there was a place selling around 200 yards on a regular basis I would be in like flyn. My brother is going to Thailand soon, and have got him on the job to go to a few denim agents. So will keep you posted. What was the place in Germany with the Cone Mill selvage? Was that a no-go?

Cheers
