You're right, its not a handloom, I misspoke. This is a very hands-on process and the fabric is hand-dipped, but the actual looms are machines. I should be more precise.@riss: I don't think any of the denim makers actually "handspins" the cotton.... do you realize what that means?
Also, I have yet to see a 45RPM denim made with authentic indigo denim, that is, the original vegetal indigo (from plants, not chemicals) - the colour is totally totally different. Â The only ones I have seen using original vegatal indigo is Nudie.
However, you are wrong that some of these extremely high-end brands are not using real indigo. And yes, I do know that indigo is from plants, not from chemicals.
