Sand Blasting

A bold, high-impact denim wash method that delivers localized abrasions and dramatic fades.

Defined Contrast. Rugged Character.

What is Sand Blasting in Denim?

Sand blasting uses high-pressure abrasive force to create bold fade zones. It’s perfect for giving denim a rugged, vintage edge—especially across high-friction areas like thighs and knees—while maintaining garment integrity.
