Ring Denim
A ring denim is a denim with a soft feel - but with a somewhat uneven surface. The weft thread is made from a ring-spun yarn.
The ring-spun yarn is a more complex spinning process in which the longer cotton fibres are processed with a strong twist. This creates natural thickenings - these are what characterise the classic denim look, in addition to the pithy feel. The yarn becomes firmer, denser and has no lint. It is of higher quality, has more structure and more stability - but therefore also more expensive.
If not only the weft thread is made of ring-spun yarn, but also the warp thread, then it is called ring-ring denim. This then also gives the most interesting washing effects - after thorough wearing in, of course.
