What are the different types of denim weave available in Indian wholesale fabric market?

Denim is not a single fabric — it is a family of twill-woven fabrics. The type of denim affects the garment's look, feel, stretch, and price. Here are the main denim variants available in Indian wholesale:

TypeCompositionWeight (oz)Best For

Acid Wash DenimCotton, chemically treated10–13 ozCasual fashion jeans and jackets
Knit DenimCotton-poly knit, denim look6–9 ozComfortable casual co-ord sets
Coloured DenimCotton, dyed in non-indigo colours8–12 ozFashion trousers, kurti fabric
💡 For wholesale kurtis, stretch denim (8–11 oz) and chambray are the most commercially viable — heavy rigid denim is difficult to stitch into ethnic silhouettes and uncomfortable for Indian climates.
