needle work is somewhat standardized on jeans. there are way to cut some corners 5 beltloops as opposed to 7. zippers and rivets will vary. and expensive jeans have much more work of hand sanding.While in general this may not be true, it not a totally false statement.
I've toured factories overseas using the same processes on $40 denim and $150 denim. I've seen laundries in LA using the same processes on $40 denim as $250 denim.
This of course doesn't mean fiber content is the same.
