Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about selvedge denim fabrics, sampling, MOQ, custom selvedge development and denim production support.
Selvedge Denim Fabrics
Fabric selection, weights, constructions and applications.
What selvedge denim fabrics do you supply?
We supply premium narrow-width selvedge denim for denim brands, designers and manufacturers. Available options include rigid 100% cotton, stretch selvedge, black denim, indigo denim, organic cotton options and selected specialty constructions.
What weights of selvedge denim are available?
Our main rigid selvedge range typically covers approximately 12oz–15.5oz, while selected stretch selvedge fabrics are generally available around 10oz–13.5oz. Other weights may be available depending on current stock and development requirements.
What is the width of your selvedge denim?
Most of our narrow-width selvedge denim is approximately 77–83 cm wide. Exact usable width varies by article and should be confirmed before ordering.
Do you offer both rigid and stretch selvedge denim?
Yes. We offer rigid 100% cotton selvedge denim as well as selected stretch constructions. The right option depends on the intended fit, product, wash and performance requirements.
Can you recommend a fabric for jeans, jackets or workwear?
Yes. Send us your intended product, preferred weight, composition, color, stretch requirement and target quantity. We can recommend suitable in-stock or development options.
Stock, Sampling & MOQ
Start small for testing before moving into bulk production.
What is the standard MOQ for in-stock selvedge denim?
Our standard bulk MOQ is generally 300 yards per fabric/article. Stock availability, shade and quantity should be confirmed before placing an order.
Can I order 10–20 yards for testing?
Yes. Selected in-stock fabrics can be cut in approximately 10–20 yard quantities for sampling, garment development or wash testing. Cutting quantities are priced higher than bulk orders.
Can I buy one full roll instead of 300 yards?
Yes, when suitable stock is available. A full roll is usually around 100 yards, depending on the individual fabric and actual roll length.
Can I request fabric swatches before buying yardage?
Yes. We can provide selected fabric swatches or fabric cards so you can review shade, texture, weight and construction before choosing a fabric for testing or bulk production.
Custom Selvedge
Customize the selvedge edge for your brand or collection.
Can you customize the selvedge edge color?
Yes. Selected base fabrics can be developed with custom selvedge color combinations, including single-color and multi-color constructions, subject to technical feasibility.
Can my brand name or logo be woven into the selvedge?
Yes. Short brand names, wordmarks and simplified logo designs can be woven into the selvedge edge. Simple, high-contrast designs usually provide the clearest woven result.
What is the MOQ for custom selvedge?
Custom selvedge edge development generally starts from 1,000 yards using a selected suitable base fabric. Final MOQ depends on the fabric and development requirements.
Do I need to develop an entirely new fabric for custom selvedge?
Not necessarily. For many projects, we can begin with a suitable existing fabric and customize the selvedge edge. This is usually more efficient than developing an entirely new fabric construction.
New Fabric Development
For projects requiring a completely new denim construction.
Can you develop a completely new selvedge denim fabric?
Yes. For qualified projects, we can develop new selvedge denim based on requirements such as weight, composition, yarn, color, construction, performance and selvedge design.
What is the MOQ for new fabric development?
New exclusive fabric development generally requires a bulk MOQ of 3,000 yards per fabric/color per production run.
Is there a development fee?
Completely new fabric development generally requires a USD 1,000 development fee. Final feasibility and development requirements are reviewed before the project begins.
Garment Development Support
Optional jeans, jacket and denim garment development support.
Can you also produce finished denim garments?
Yes. In addition to fabric supply, we can support denim garment development including jeans, jackets and selected custom denim products through our manufacturing network.
What is the MOQ for finished garments?
Standard garment MOQ is generally 300 pieces per style. Selected projects may be evaluated from approximately 200 pieces, although smaller quantities normally have a higher unit cost.
Can you make a sample before bulk production?
Yes. We support sample development before bulk production. Tech packs, reference garments, measurement charts and design images can all be used to help develop the first sample.
Ordering & Shipping
What to send us and how international orders are handled.
What information should I send when requesting fabric options?

Do you ship selvedge denim internationally?
Yes. We support international shipments for fabric samples, cutting quantities, full rolls and bulk orders. Shipping method and cost depend on destination, quantity and shipment size.
