Guides for this product
Questions about the straight jean
What is the minimum order for the straight jean?
50 pieces per colour on stock fabric, in any stock colour (indigo and black), spread across your sizes. Custom-dyed or printed fabric carries the mill's own minimum, which is higher — we confirm it against your fabric before quoting.
What sizes and colours does the straight jean come in?
Waist sizes 28 to 44. Stock colours at the 50-piece minimum: indigo and black. Any other colour is custom-dyed and carries the mill's higher minimum.
How much does the straight jean cost?
It is costed to your specification. Send your tech pack with the quantity per colour and we reply with a price within two working days.
What fabric is the straight jean made in?
Rigid cotton denim or cotton / elastane stretch denim. You specify the fabric and the mill sources it; it is made in Egypt, which keeps the EU duty preference.
How long does it take to make the straight jean?
Proto sample 5–7 days, fit sample 3–5 days, pre-production sample 5–7 days. From proto sample to ex-factory is 45–65 days in total. Samples cost $20 per sample, which covers shipping it to you.
Does the straight jean enter the US and EU duty-free?
Yes. Into the US at 0%: clothing from QIZ-certified factories enters duty-free, and we only use QIZ factories. Into the EU at 0% with a EUR.1 certificate, because the fabric is made in Egypt and the garment is sewn there.
