According to incomplete statistics, China's annual production of denim has reached 2 billion meters, accounting for 1/4 of the world, China's annual production of denim clothing in more than 2.5 billion pieces. It can be said that denim in China has become an important international producer of denim, a large number of more advanced denim, denim clothing in terms of quality and variety has been basically in line with international standards, initially reversed China's denim products in the international market belongs to the "low-grade goods" concept.

Denim fiber raw materials are very rich, generally including synthetic fibers, natural fibers, renewable fibers, new cellulose fibers, etc., the above denim fiber raw materials have their own characteristics only. Among them, synthetic fibers used to weave denim raw materials are mainly polyester and polyamide, especially after the modified polyester fiber, soft drape, winter warm summer drying, is the "spring, summer, autumn and winter" ideal denim fiber raw materials. Polyester-based simulation of various types of differentiated fiber development has expanded the scope of application of polyester. Now a few more examples for industry reference! For example, with cotton and polyester fibers as raw materials woven polyester-cotton denim is a popular new varieties of the market in recent years, the use of polyester fibers, high brightness, good luster, colorful features, a breakthrough in the conventional denim single-color, dull style of the cloth, to the denim family injected a new vitality; viscose fibers and polyester fibers and cotton woven viscose polyester-cotton denim because of the combination of viscose, polyester, Cotton three fiber characteristics, so that the fabric is soft and rigid, clear grain; with viscose fibers and cotton as raw materials woven out of viscose denim is to play the soft characteristics of viscose fibers, viscose and cotton through the blending or interweaving, so that the fabric feels soft and not lose the firm, wearing floating, comfortable; with ramie and cotton as raw materials woven out of linen-cotton denim, but the use of linen fibers feel more coarse and hard, the characteristics of the strip is more obvious, with Cotton fiber blending, the use of a variety of dyeing process, so that the fabric style rough, very contemporary. Again, DuPont's T400 multi-component polyester fiber raw materials, can be woven directly into the clothes, but also in the market to cause a turn of shock. T400 can be coiled like a telephone line, it can be easily made many treatments to provide a lot of advantages of the denim: it is very resistant to abrasion and it is not elastic fiber synthesis, and therefore not afraid of bleaching, made into a denim jeans do not need to be patched up can be extended to all parts of the pattern. Tactel's gold and silver yarns are also stunning when applied to jeans. Because the yarn combines two different polymers in the yarn to achieve a fascinating two-tone effect with a layered sheen, it creates a wide range of visual effects and two-tone effects, creating a multitude of new design possibilities. The denim woven by TEDA does not shine so brightly that it catches the eye, but rather emits a light, elegant glow that makes the denim ideal for wearing at dinner parties.

From the denim product development aspect to explore, although the denim development history has been quite long, but the domestic specifically on the development of denim products, or a late start, but the starting level is higher, the pace is also sold faster, with the airflow spinning, automatic winding, ball warp dyeing, shuttleless looms (a large number of rapier, followed by a piece of the shuttle, and again is the air-jet), the heavy-duty shrinkage pre-finishing machine, and other more advanced equipment, so as to develop varieties of denim for the Equipment, thus for denim varieties development, improve the quality level has created good conditions. In recent years, denim new products are also endless, so that denim family members more than a lot, and each has its own characteristics. At present, the more popular denim varieties at home and abroad are ring spindle yarn denim, warp and weft to bamboo denim, super indigo dyed denim, color, color denim and weft stretch denim and so on.

In summary!

The word "cowboy" actually comes from the word "cowboy". The word "Cowboy" actually comes from the Spanish language and is a direct translation of the Spanish word "Vaquero". "Vaquero" is developed from the root word "vaca", meaning "cow", so "Vaquero Cowman" translates into English as "Cowboy". The earliest cowboys were the descendants of Europeans who came to live in the Americas. The English and French colonists who landed on the east coast of the United States were unfamiliar with Spanish animal husbandry, and began raising cattle only in pens. When the grass in the pen was eaten up by the cattle, the herd was driven to a new place where there was grass to continue herding. Such a cattleman is called a "driver" in English. The Spaniards were not like the colonizers of other colonies who came to escape political and religious persecution, they were aristocrats and adventurers, they were rigorous, intelligent, gentlemanly, bold, ambitious, adventurous, and liked to express themselves. ...... They put the essence of "I Can They put the essence of "I Can" into "America Can". The way they raised their cattle was true pastoralism, putting them out on the open grasslands and the cowboys rode with them on horseback. The spirit of these Spaniards represents the traditional cowboy spirit. Inhabiting the countryside of New Mexico are such stubbornly traditional cowboys, descendants of the Spaniards who are found throughout the United States, and whose lineage and culture have been well preserved.

In 1846, the United States went to war with Mexico. In the war the Americans defeated the Mexicans and established the state of New Mexico. But very ironically, the cowboy culture of New Mexico completely conquered the United States. No other region has had such an important and far-reaching impact on the development of American cowboy culture as New Mexico.

In fact, cowboys were not as strongly heroic as the movies reflect. According to one cowboy expert, Lawn Taylor, real-life cowboys were farm workers on horseback who tended cows. They spent 12 to 14 hours a day outdoors, and their work was heavy, dangerous and poorly paid. Most cowboys had to find other work in the winter, but the 1865-1895 period was the heyday of the cowboy, when new methods of meat preservation, a dramatic increase in demand for beef, and the extension of railroads to most villages led to a boom in ranching in the southwestern United States. Grazing, ranching owners raised large herds of cattle in the West at low cost and then shipped them by rail to markets in the East. And cowboys ran cattle outdoors and shipped them to the nearest railroad.

But it was these cowboys, at the bottom of the social ladder and full of the American pioneering spirit, who formed and perfected their own cowboy culture and carried it forward. They usually wear the "uniform" - jeans, and the cowboys contained in the independence, freedom, rebellion, rugged, heroic spirit complement each other, interplay. Jeans have since become almost completely detached from the original meaning of a pair of pants, especially blue jeans, has become an important cultural symbol, continued to be embedded in the highly developed "modern" society after the Western Industrial Revolution.

The American cowboy culture that emerged from the ground was different from the European and Indian cultures, and absorbed the essence of many cultures to develop itself. As the United States became stronger, American culture began to popularize the world. Cowboy culture has been y rooted in the hearts of the people along with the image of cowboys in movies. Through many facts and legends, cowboys have become a great representative of American culture. And jeans and cowboy clothing, has become a distinctive symbol of the American cowboy culture.
