A good denim is hard to find . . . that’s why we were thrilled to find this Cone S-Gene denim deadstock, the last of its kind to be produced in the Cone Mills Greensboro, North Carolina plant before they moved all production overseas. This midweight denim uses a patented process that creates stronger stretch denim with excellent recovery by blending cotton and polyester fibres with lycra. As a result, it holds its shape and won't stretch out two sizes over the course of day. In a deep indigo shade with a classic diagonal twill weave, is ideal for stretch jeans, in addition to garments like pants, jackets and dresses where a touch of stretch is desired for comfort and mobility.

The History of Denim:
Where is Denim Made?
Denim, originating from De Nîmes, France (hence the name!), flourished in the 19th century. As workwear gained prominence, denim production shifted to the United States, where some of the world's finest denim emerged for decades. However, many U.S. mills, including the iconic Cone Mills White Oak plant, have since closed. Despite some small-scale production persisting, the majority of denim is now made overseas. Japan leads the pack, with a deep passion for denim evidenced by their acquisition of vintage looms from American mills, some even meticulously restored. Italy, Spain, and Turkey also boast stunning and innovative denim creations.
