Denim is mainly cotton, and a variety of raw material structures are also developed. There are cotton, wool, silk, hemp natural fiber blends, as well as blends with chemical fibers, and elastic yarn, tight twist yarn, fancy yarn, etc. are used as raw materials. The higher the content of spandex silk, the greater the elasticity. The yarn count has 7 * 7, 7 * 6, 7 * 8, 10 * 7 and other specifications. The organizational structure is generally twill (2/1, 3/1, 1/3), broken twill, and the radial tightness is greater than the weft direction.

Its varieties mainly include small fish scale terry, large fish scale terry, thick and fine twill terry, convex twill terry, plain weave sweat and so on.
