What's the difference between jeans that cost as much as 2000 dollars and jeans that you wear for hundreds of dollars every day?

In Japan, the price of a pair of high-end jeans can reach 2000 dollars, so what's the difference with the jeans we wear for hundreds of dollars every day?

Denim woven by loom will naturally have some defects because of the low precision of loom. In the process of cutting, every marked place needs tweezers to repair. Jeans that cost as much as $2,000 are so expensive because they are made in a more traditional way, that is, by hand. It takes about an hour to weave a piece of 10 cm denim by hand.

Although time is slow, hand-woven denim is much better than machine-woven denim, which is naturally expensive. In addition, there is a very important reason, that is, the yarn used in denim is dyed with natural indigo, which comes from the leaves of indigo iron factory.

As for ordinary jeans, the color is synthetic indigo, and the price of one kilogram of synthetic indigo is only between four and five dollars. The price of natural indigo is more than ten times that of synthetic indigo. At the same time, the natural dyeing of jeans is completely handmade, which is different from the machine dyeing of ordinary jeans. Each yarn needs to be washed in the dye vat for about 30 times, otherwise the color will be off.

This dyed denim not only takes longer, but also costs more. When knitting jeans by hand, it needs to be cut by hand, and the stitches used in jeans are all sewn by hand.

It can be said that the final appearance and feeling of a good pair of jeans depends largely on the grasp of details. It must be carefully dyed with the best technology from the beginning. That's why it sells at such a high price.
