No matter what your body type Fidelity has a pair (or two or three) that will fit you perfectly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me: What kind of denim fabrics Fidelity uses most(eg Selvedge denim,Flat finishes,Ringxring etc and also their preferred source eg Japanese denim,US denim,Italian etc).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jason<\/strong>:Fidelity Women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s is all Japanese and Italian stretch&#8230;We are having great success with boutique Japanese denim mills and have some amazing sources that we have stuck with because the formula works&#8230;Fidelity men&#8217;s is predominantly Italian denim but lately I have been using good old U.S. made denim by Cone&#8230;.American classics&#8230;true backbone denim!!!<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nMe: If you were to distribute marks (out of 10) between Fabric,Fit and Finish, what would be your distribution?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jason<\/strong>:Fabric 3, Fit 5, Finish 2&#8230;The fit is 50% (or more of the game\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6actually it is 100% of the game) but if I had to split it would be the forementioned. Fit is the most important by far but without quality fabric and amazing finishes, you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t qualify as premium. The consumer is smart enough and the competition is thick out there. There are no cutting corners in this game. You have to be a complete package to stay successful in the market.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nMe: Which is the next big style in denim ?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jason<\/strong>:Fashion denim and anything straight. That is where I am hedging my bets in \u00e2\u20ac\u02dc08.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me: We keep on hearing that black denim is coming back. Is it so?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jason<\/strong>:Personally I don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t see it&#8230;.black denim had a great run the last few falls but the look is limited. The trend is becoming more fashion and luxury so I believe black\/black is still important but as more of a general color\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6not necessarily for denim.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nMe: As per you which are the best styles from Fidelity &#8211; for men and for women?<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nJason:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s<\/strong><br \/>\nHYACINTH: 5 Pocket Trouser jeans\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6wide leg mid rise\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6fits all body types\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6always dressy!!!<br \/>\nBELLADONNA: Mid Rise Boot Cut\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6Most versatile cut for a woman\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6.The Belladonna medium rise is the perfect rise  @ 8.5\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, the thigh is slimming and the boot cut open allows for both dressy or casual occasions.<br \/>\nTHE LUX: flare, Do some damage with this cut\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6clean tailor details on a 5-pocket  jean with a long lean flare.<\/p>\n<p>Again, there are many bodies too numerous to mention, but our specialty is our fit\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 many customers swear by our \u00e2\u20ac\u0153uplifting\u00e2\u20ac\u009d qualities and has been coined as the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153butt bra jean\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MEN\u00e2\u20ac\u2122S<\/strong><br \/>\n5011: My favorite style is the 5011 straight, the cut is lean and mean yet masculine.<br \/>\nCHARGER: Boot cut&#8230;the best boot cut on the market!<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nMe: Which celebrities are fans of Fidelity Jeans?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jason<\/strong>:Heidi Montag, Blake Lively, Lindsay Lohan, Kristen Cavallari, Eva Longoria, Demi Moore, Eva Pigford, Vanessa Minillo, , Virginia Madsen, Debra Messing, Sophia Myles<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nMe: Which countries is Fidelity Jeans currently available in?  <\/strong><br \/>\nNORTH AMERICA: Canada, USA,<br \/>\nEUROPE: Germany, Italy, Luxemburg, France, U.K.<br \/>\nMIDDLE EAST: Dubai, Israel<br \/>\nASIA: Japan, Indonesia<\/p>\n<p>We hope to be moving even further into the international market in 2008!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some photographs from FIDELITY<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href='http:\/\/denimiscool.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/02\/blue-belle.jpg' title='blue-belle.jpg'><img src='http:\/\/denimiscool.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/02\/blue-belle.jpg' alt='blue-belle.jpg' \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href='http:\/\/www.denimsandjeans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/02\/honeysuckle-crop-light.jpg' title='honeysuckle-crop-light.jpg'><img src='http:\/\/www.denimsandjeans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/02\/honeysuckle-crop-light.jpg' alt='honeysuckle-crop-light.jpg' \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I am featuring an inteview with Jason Trotzuk &#8211; the designer of a premium brand from Canada &#8211; FIDELITY JEANS..This is an upcoming denim brand and making inroads in the US market..
