Microsanding jeans
Sanding is basically done 3 ways: Sandblasting, as above.
Machine sanding - just like machines that you'd use to sand a wooden table.
Handsanding aka Handbrushing - just a piece of folded fine sandpaper.
All three methods are used in various ways, on the flat (tables, ironing boards), on the dummy
(inflatable dummies, sometimes standing, sometimes flat, sometimes 'seated') and various templates
can be used to create a 3D effect.Any sanding can be enhanced with chemical whiteners.
Whiskering the denim
Also known as 'Cat's Whiskers'. These are the crease lines around the crotch. Industrially these
can be done with laser, sandblasting, machine sanding, handsanding and abrasive rods. Same techniques
are used for 'knee whiskers' (whiskers on the sides of knees) and 'honeycombs' (crease marks on the
back of the knee).
Overdye on jeans
Basically dyeing over the fabric or jeans to add another tone of colour. Most often used is a
'yellowy' overdye to create a 'dirty' look. Also can be applied with spraygun or paintbrush for
local colouring (ie. if you wanted just 'dirty knees').
Laser etched jeans
Taylor Togs owner Grier Lackey displays jeans material with
intricate designs etched by a laser machine. Laser designs
are virtually unlimited. Could this be part of the future?
