Denim has a vocabulary of its own, from weaving and dyeing terms such as twill and rope dyeing, to fit words such as rise and inseam, to finishing terms such as stonewash and distressing. This glossary collects that vocabulary from A to Z in one place, with a short, plain explanation for each term and a link to the full entry.
Use it whenever you come across an unfamiliar word on this site or on a product listing elsewhere. Each entry also links back to the guide where the term is discussed in more practical depth, so the glossary works both as a quick lookup and as a starting point for exploring a topic further.
