Open end denim is faster and less expensive to produce than the original ring spun denims. Open end denims create denim with a courser look and feel. (Not nearly as comfortable or appealing as the original ring spun denim.)

Open End Spinning- is a process for making a more coarse yarns used in denim. It is faster and cheaper than ring spinning. Fibers are fed into a high-speed rotor shaped like a cup. The end of a yarn is placed inside and drawn out as the fibers accumulate on the ?open end.? Open-end yarns are not as strong as ring-spun yarns of the same size, because some of the fibers do not lie parallel to the axis of the yarn.

The open end method will most likely be used? with the cheaper denim brands because it is not as comfortable, strong or appealing as the ring-spun yarns.
