Pursuing Sustainability... Genuinely!

It is common knowledge that the concern for environment has been growing, and, more and more consumers, across the globe, are asking for eco-friendly products.

We, at Denim Club, feel that we should also be making our proverbial ‘drop in the ocean’ contribution to the fast evolving causes of sustainability and environment.

Denim Club proudly presents “handloom” denim – an eco-friendly and sustainable variety of denim – produced using ethical and sustainable material and methods.

The Handloom Denim Initiative by Denim Club is a step in the direction of sustainable clothing and socially responsible fashion, which has made available an innovative product line which has all these years lived only in the imagination of fashion designers.

At the same time, this initiative by Denim Club is also a small step towards preserving the Indian culture and helping the weavers in keeping alive their traditional skill and craft and ensuring their livelihoods.

The handloom denim fabric collection offered by Denim Club has a very low, almost negligible, carbon foot print.

Authentic Hand-made Denim Fabric

Handloom Denim fabric offered by us is completely artisanal in nature.

The entire process of making fabric from yarn is hand-based, involving hank dyeing, hand sizing, hand reeling, hand warping and hand weaving.

The handloom denim is made out of 100% cotton yarn, and is offered in two basic varieties, based on the type of yarn used for producing fabric, one being handloom denim, made out of mill-made yarn, and the other being khadi denim, made using hand-spun yarn.

The handloom denim fabric made out of hand-spun yarn is called “khadi-denim”.

Chemical-free Organic Natural Dyes

The handloom denim offered by Denim Club also distinguishes itself by being 100% chemical-free. The color used for dyeing the warp yarns is extracted from natural sources, like, eucalyptus tree leaves, pomegranate rind, onion skins, marigold flower petals, madder roots, and indigo plant.

The colored fabric, dyed with organic / vegetable dyes, is completely free of hazardous chemicals, and safe for the human skin.

The dyeing of yarn is carried out in small lots, and is done manually – in hank form – in a heated dye bath.

The dyeing with indigo is done without using any heat, in a vat at normal room temperature.
