Overall Assessment

The Crate Denim Jackets and Pants Collection presents a solid offering with good construction quality and authentic denim characteristics. The collection maintains consistent wash patterns and hardware quality across pieces, though minor variations in stitching tension were noted in some samples. The fabric weight and texture align with mid-weight raw denim expectations, providing durability without excessive stiffness.

Construction Details

Jacket construction shows reinforced seams at stress points including shoulder seams and pocket corners. Buttonholes are cleanly finished with bar tacks at both ends. The interior lining (where applicable) is properly attached without puckering. Pant construction features double-stitched inseams and reinforced back pockets. Belt loops are evenly spaced and securely attached.

Materials & Hardware

The denim fabric exhibits consistent indigo dye saturation with minimal fading inconsistencies. Selvedge edges on jacket cuffs and pocket openings show clean finishing. Hardware includes:

Buttons: Zinc alloy with proper Crate branding
Zippers: YKK brand with smooth operation
Rivets: Copper-toned with correct placement

Fit & Measurements

Jackets maintain consistent sizing within 0.5cm tolerance of stated measurements. Shoulder seams align properly with sleeve attachment points. Pants show accurate waist measurements but slight variation in leg opening widths (within 0.3cm). All pieces include proper size tags with care instructions.

Common Issues

Minor quality variations observed:

Occasional loose threads at seam ends
Slight color variation between jacket and pant pieces in same wash
Button alignment occasionally off by 1-2mm

How to Inspect Crate Denim Collection QC Photos

When viewing Quality Control (QC) photos for the Crate Denim Collection, pay close attention to the following details:

1. Inspect Stitching Quality

Examine all visible stitching for consistency in thread tension and stitch length. Pay special attention to stress points like pocket corners, armholes, and crotch seams. Look for loose threads, skipped stitches, or uneven seam allowances. Use a magnifying glass to check bar tacks at buttonholes and pocket openings.

2. Verify Hardware & Branding

Check all buttons, zippers, and rivets for proper Crate branding and finish. Test zipper functionality through full range of motion. Ensure buttons are securely attached and aligned correctly. Verify that all brand tags (neck, size, care) are properly stitched with correct information and placement.

3. Assess Fabric Consistency

Compare denim wash and color consistency across all pieces in the collection. Check for uneven fading, dye streaks, or discoloration. Examine selvedge edges for clean finishing. Test fabric weight and texture against reference samples. Look for any manufacturing defects like holes, stains, or uneven weaving.

4. Measure & Fit Check

Take precise measurements of key areas: shoulder width, chest circumference, sleeve length (jackets); waist, inseam, leg opening (pants). Compare against size chart with 0.5cm tolerance. Check pattern alignment at seams and pocket placement symmetry. Verify that all pieces in the collection maintain consistent sizing standards.
