  • Yarn Conversion Calculator

    Remember our “GSM  and Fabric weight calculator”  that we had put on our site last year for helping to convert the weight of fabric into GSM and  Oz/Sq. Yd and vice versa ? 
    We are now adding another calculator to this section – the “Yarn conversion calculator” . This calculator is useful for converting the yarn parameters into different units at one go.
    Eg , what is the conversion of 600 Denier into English Cotton Counts and Tex and Metric systems ? Just enter 600 , select Denier and click ‘ Convert It’..  You will immediately find the values of 600 Denier converted into different Yarn count systems and even those like Linen and woolen systems.

    For easy remembrance of our calculator section, just remember our site name ie Denimsandjeans.com and add ‘Calculators’ after a slash – www.denimsandjeans.com/calculators

    If our readers suggest need for more calculators , we will put them up . Just leave in comments below .

  • New Denim Data Sections Launched

    We are happy and proud to announce the public launch of  new data sections related to denim industry. These sections provide various kinds of information and data related to denim industry worldwide.
    To explain better, we have first created a video below from these sections which you can see here and then I can explain what these sections are about ..

    Denim Buyers in USA and Shippers Worldwide

    This section gives micro information on the shipments made related to denim products from around the world to US . Thus it would be possible to find out which companies in US are buying what denim products from which factories and suppliers around the world  . The contacts of buyers and suppliers both would be visible so that the members can benefit from their availability. 
    Since the data is searchable, it would be possible to see , eg , which are the important suppliers from ‘Vietnam’ to US or to find the companies in US and around which are buying denim products from China.. 
    We have created the databases since the period starting 2008 mid.

    The data shows shipments made from 2000 to the latest available period and is helpful in sourcing and management decisions.

    India Denim Fabric Exports

    Our third section deals with checking out the prices and volumes of shipments made by Indian denim mills to countries around the world .. Thus it would be possible to have an idea of fabric prices and trends for shipments made from India . Also, it would be interesting to find the countries where more Indian fabric is being shipped. But , no mills or buyer names would be available in these reports and these would be more of macro reports of statistical nature.

    Besides the above three, we also have a denim buyer section where buyers of jeans and denim products from some countries are listed.

    The above sections are constantly updated enabling our subscribers to get new info on a regular basis. To get more info on these sections including pricing etc, contact us here

  • Denim Reports,Trends Etc – From A Single Link

    Do you find it difficult to browse through a number of articles on Denimsandjeans.com and would like to see most of them but don’t have the time to browse through them. Would you rather prefer to sit back and watch as the articles unfold ? Well, its not a fanciful thought and you can do the same . Let me explain this :

    Denim Reports : Visit this link and you find it opening like one of our denim reports with a frame like this on the top of the page :

    image On the frame you will find a counter which is set to 20 seconds by default – which means that you can view the current page for 20 seconds and then it will change to a new article(see image below).
    denims2 However , if you want to view the current article for more time, just press the  pause button  as below :
    pause
    If you don’t  , the frame will change to next article after 20 seconds (you can change it to any fixed period eg 100 seconds) and keep on moving like this . And you can just browse through a number of articles in a small period.

    What if you want to change the category of articles ? Eg go from Denim Reports to Denim Trends or any other category ? Well, click on the current category that is showing on the frame – in this case “Denim Reports”.
    denims3

    Now you can easily change the category of the articles and shift to a new category eg :Denim Mills . However, for the articles to play automatically, you will have to click on the CLOCK sign and set the time .

    And finally, if you don’t want to set any clock time but would still like to see the next article just click on NEXT at the top right of the frame .

    You can also revert to previous article by clicking on PREVIOUS.

    You can save almost 70% time by viewing our articles like this  or if I can put it this way – “You can view 3 times more number of articles than you view by visiting the site normally”

    Here are some opening links so that you can start at one category and go to any category later on . Sit back have your coffee while our articles open up one by one in front of you !.

  • Search Denim jobs,brands,buyers,blog and forum posts etc

    What do you do when :

    a)You need to find about Denim brands or
    b)You need to find Denim buyers to sell your fabric and garments or
    c)You need to study about the Trends in Denim or
    d)You need a job related to Denim in(say) New York or Delhi or
    e)You have any other denim related queries..
    f)You need to buy a particular style of a jeans brand but do not know where to buy from.

    Well, for me, I used to go to Google and hope to find some answer. Or I would to visit some denim forums or blogs and try to search them individually. By the time I would find any answer, I would be totally exhausted and probably give up many times..

    As I earlier mentioned, it seems to be much easier to SEARCH ANYTHING ON DENIM ..
    Just visit the at Denim Search Engine . I use it regularly for searching various denim related articles and I thought it might come in handy to others as well..This engine SEARCHES ONLY DENIM RELATED WEBPAGES

    How do I use this Search Engine ?

    a)To find which Denim Brands(well known) has created Color Jeans,I would just
    make a search ‘Color’ and click on ‘DENIM BRANDS’ label in the search results
    and I would know that the brands that have come out with color denims.

    b)If I need to find a job in New York for a denim designer, I would just search ‘NewYork Designer’ and in the search result, I would CLICK on ‘DENIM JOBS’ label and instantly get this list of denim jobs in USA.
    c)Buyers –Since nobody employed me 🙂 , I decided to export some denims to USA and searched ‘USA’ and in the search results, I clicked on ‘DENIM BUYERS’ and I found a long list of buyers (on various sites) who had current enquiries on denim.
    d)Recent articles : I sometimes need to know what kind of posts people are making about various brand names. But it is difficult to find in reverse order – the date of posts . Now, suppose in this engine, I search for ‘DVB’..In the search results, I click on ‘RECENT4) and I get the latest posts related to DVB brand. It kind of enables one to keep track of what people are saying about your brand.Also I can check out if some top news sites have made a mention regarding DVB and I click on the label ‘TOP NEWS SITES’ and I find that Reuters had a news item on them recently.
    e)Denim Blogs : It is interesting to search any term and then click on ‘DENIM BLOGS’ label in the search results. It gives an idea what top denim bloggers (including myself 🙂 ) think about that search term..No need now to search all these different blogs to find any relevant articles.

    Now the Denim Search Engine Search box is available right here on our site. On the right panel, you willl see the search box . Just make any search on Denim and use the Labels like ‘Denim Blogs’, ‘Buy Jeans’ etc to refine the results.
