Denim

Denim (which gets its name from the French city of Nîmes (de Nîmes))[1] is a rugged cotton twill textile, in which the weft passes under two (twi- "double") or morewarp threads. This twill weaving produces the familiar diagonal ribbing of the fabric, which distinguishes denim from cotton duck. It is characteristic of any indigo denim that only the warp threads are dyed, whereas the weft threads remain plain white. As a result of the warp-faced twill weaving, one side of the fabric shows the blue warp threads, the other side shows the white weft threads. This is why jeans are white from the inside and what makes their fading characteristics so unique compared to every other fabric.
