Type of jeans itself has a very diverse variants depending on the manufacturing process of denim; materials used to make the jeans.

Denim was a lot of variation. From there we talked styling, washing.
But there are some washing techniques and the process of the effects of the most widely used in the manufacture of jeans. Here it is the types of jeans based on two categories.
