This week was fashion week in both L.A. and Seattle. Yes, Seattle. Winning awards for their Supima denim in L.A. were Goldsign, Seven for All Mankind, Paige Premium Denim, J Brand and more. What is Supima denim you might ask…Supima is the world’s finest cotton. Of the over 115 million bales of cotton produced worldwide each year, less than 1% is qualified to carry the Supima name. Supima, short for Superior Pima, is renowned for its superior fiber length, strength and natural luster. Seattle’s fashion week also brought awareness about Sling and Stones, an organic designer denim with 24kt gold rivets. Check out the HonestForum discussion on Green Jeans. Would you buy them?

Of course we all know that the best way to find authentic designer jeans on Ebay is to read up on HonestForum.com to learn all the tips and things to watch for! But have you also heard about Toolhaus.org? Toolhaus is a great tool which allows you to sort a seller’s feedback by only the neutrals or negatives, and gives you a quick glance at the seller’s history. Although a seller’s feedback may be mostly positive, if you see comments that jeans are fakes, that’s a good indicator that the seller may not be selling authentics. Remember, if you are unsure, ask the experts at HonestForum!
