Denim
A strong, durable twill weave cotton fabric, originating in Nimes, France, made with different coloured yarns in the warp and the weft. The weft passes under two or more warp fibers, which produces a diagonal ribbing found on the reverse of the fabric. The twill construction causes one colour (blue is most common) to dominate the fabric's surface.
