She's in tears about how she started. That's love.
This is the kind of all in attitude that made America great! We......can.....do....it....again.
Fantastic. Totally worth the price when you consider the overall impact on who is making them, where they are made, keeping this skillset in the U.S. not allowing persons to be paid a garbage wage in a country (turkey, bangladesh, china, mexico etc) and in a country or place in the world where they have no respect for the water, the neighborhood, or the environment overall when jeans are being made and processed. So glad you do this/did this. Heartbroken that the Cone Mill in NC shut down this december. If the average murican took just a few thoughtful minutes to really consider, all that they effect by purchasing handmade, unwashed/raw or selvedge or sanforized denim from a maker in the US, they might realize the dollar cost is wholly worth it. Its not about just the dollar amount its about putting your money where your mouth is to get a fine and sturdy product avoiding all the things working class Americans complain about: not having enough U.S. jobs, U.S. skills, outsourced labor, cheap materials, good working conditions, companies that care etc. When someone buys denim from you, they avoid all that and keep it at home and in the best sense possible. Cheers and thank you for what you have done.
Made in USA is the most important thing today.
Never owned a pair and came across this because of my own interest in creating my own jeans. I appreciate their care and passion, and after seeing this I’ll be grabbing a pair 100% 😊

How many of the workers have some ownership?
I'm as into jeans as this guy,I just dragged a pair of jeans last week on my scooter to get them extra dirty,so anyways I'm LITERALLY putting studious time into choosing some raw denim,and Detroit has won, getting a pair,just have to choose a cut..Thanks
Excellent project, but for consumers: where is the cotton made, who harvested it, how was the fabric spun and woven?
Mmmm that McDonald's analogy couldn't be more spot on
I really would like to purchase a pair of denim from your company. However there is no skinny fit available in men’s. Bummer. Hint* skinny taper.
xyz hi
What sewing denim jeans, How much fabric would you say in metres length it takes to makes 1 pair of jeans (Waist 42" INSEAM 36") with a width of 150 cm? Your best caluclated guess would be okay.
8 miles of denim to make half a pair of jeans so you'll need 50 miles in total to just make the belt loops. Best of luck!
@@musecratelive7682 miles?
@@IEXECUTIVE he's a really big guy
Where can I buy a few?
You can go online to www.detroitdenim.com or stop in the store. Thanks.
Well there you go they shut shop
