Denim was born on a shuttle loom, hundreds of years ago. In the mid-20th century, these looms were replaced with more efficient full-width looms. As a result, shuttle looms are no longer produced and have become a rarity. Therefore, companies like Candiani* feel honoured to be able to keep the selvedge denim tradition alive.
