The site's 'Five Questions for Five Pockets' has received responses from industry heavy-hitters like Ernest Sewn's Scott Morrison and the blog was one of the first such venue to report on Zac Posen's amazing white denim wedding dress.  Denimology.com is in a similar view, billed as the right place to 'find that perfect pair of jeans.' The blog has easy-to-navigate links to online sales venues of major and emerging denim brands and is a-poppin' with paparazzi images of celebrities, wannabe and hangers-on in denim triumphs and tragedies.  Jeans.com---the name says it all. The all-inclusive web site is the place for denim jeans industry insiders, emerging talent and regular mortals who just really like denim jeans. It has a magazine-style Designer of the Month feature, a comprehensive glossary, denim jeans' shopping site recommendations and an intriguing section on global denim trends. The inclusion of the shopping venues within jeans.com is noteworthy, since online shopping for everything, even denim blue jeans, is here to stay. |
