NY-DARK WASH



Today 7 For all Mankind has a wide range of products and tries to find new stuff to put into their collection to keep on defining the Seven lifestyle. But looking through their portfolio you will feel that they still have their heart grounded deep down in denim. Because in the end, it’s all about the heritage! That’s why this post will give you a small insight to their absolute first pair of jeans that was the very start of the LA based brand. Enjoy everyone!


The New York dark wash denim jeans was first launched in a boot-cut fit, only for the hip and trendy Hollywood women. Made in the dark inky blue 11 oz Italian denim, with a special washing process that makes every single pair unique, the wearers will never find anyone else with the exact same pair of denims. A perfect match for the picky and self-aware women of the Californian coast. Of course they have the signature 7 whiskers featured at the pockets, this “squiggle” back pocket design is still Sevens best selling product.  

As for now, Seven jeans can be found in a range of different styles, cuts and washes, but the original is still a favourite among the lovers, you will be able to find the Dojo (the name of the 5 pocket original jean) on both women and men, both famous and anonymous, everyone wants their Dojo. The contamination by the 7Fam is thereby complete. The Seven lovers already knows, are you in?

LESSON ON THE GLOBAL DENIM MARKET

Nothing better than a little introduction to the denim market to start the day!!!


After reporting $ 51.6 billion and more than more than 1.8 billion sold jeans in 2007, the global denim market continues to grow. Being an essential fashion accessory, jeans demonstrate the international division of production (design and skilled work in the "North", implementation and operation of the raw material in the "South") and see its demand increase by 5% on average each year.

Registering a significant growth in the United States in 2010 (14% of imports more compared to 2009), the results for the jeans market are positive and very encouraging in the current economic scenario, despite slightly higher production costs, especially for men’s jeans that are characterized by a move upmarket.

Competition becomes greater and companies see a major asset to thrive in the marketing of jeans. Nearly 70% of sales are primarily made in developed countries (39% in North America, 20% in Europe and Asia 10%), while 13% of the world's population consumes jeans. In addition to that, the leading brands strengthen their market position and resist quite well to the major distributors of ready-to-wear offering a wide assortment but with a more moderate price (eg. Zara, Mango, Celio).

Far from being destabilized, companies now tend to increase their prices and enhance the exclusivity of their product range as evidenced by collections of key stakeholders, which increasingly worked. Jeans are not only a utilitarian garment, but a sign of identity, often asserting by its form (slim, boot cut, relax, regular, etc.) or by the brand (Levi's, Diesel, Wrangler, Acquaverde, Pepe jeans, Lui Jo, etc.).

However, since the beginning of 2011, the denim market recorded a relaxation (-14.3% of imports). China showed the largest drop in export figures (-23,5%) like some other countries such as Bangladesh, Cambodia, but in smaller proportions. The steady decline this year reflects that there is some saturation reached due to ongoing expense increased on denim. But there is no real reason to worry because denim has always shown a similar trend (rising and declining to rebound later).

It is right time to keep your fingers crossed so that jeans continue to be on you… ;)
