The undisputed leader in the rating of comfortable wardrobe items can rightfully be called jeans. Agree that despite the change in fashion trends in the closet, each of us has a beloved couple that we want to wear and never take off. And if we talk about youth, then, for sure, these are Collins jeans .
Reviews have long proved that the brand worthy passed the test of time and confirmed a decent level of product quality. But what is the success of the brand connected with?
How it all began
Eroğlu Holding was founded in 1983 by Turkish entrepreneur Nurettin Eroglu. Initially, the company was engaged in the production of coats, raincoats, jackets and down jackets. Denim production began three years later and was sold under the Kulis brand. At the same moment, the long-awaited event occurred - the opening of the first company store. A little later, the Eroglu factory expanded its assortment and began to sew blouses, trousers and t-shirts.
If in 1983 the company employed only 15 people, then by 1991 their number had reached 200. The turning point in the brand’s history was 1992, when a new large factory was opened and the brand itself was renamed Colin`s.
Active international expansion began in 1994. The first company store opened in Russia in 1995, and five years later in Ukraine.
The increase in production capacity in subsequent years led to an increase in the number of points of sale. And in 2003, the company launched an enterprise for tailoring its own products in Russia. Thus, marketing activities intensified, and the brand became more popular.
Secret of success
Undoubtedly, jeans constitute a fundamental part of the assortment. In particular, youth models of club or sports style. However, you can find more austere styles in the form of casual trousers or classic Collins jeans. Customer reviews of the brand emphasize the good quality of the products, but according to their claims, it cannot be called outstanding. What is the secret? Japanese denim? No. Selvage? Again past.
Mostly clothes are made from natural material - cotton. However, polyester, rayon, and elastane are added to some models. In general, the brand’s products can confidently be called practical and suitable for people who want to look a little careless and not boring.
What do customers think
Denim clothing is an integral part of our wardrobe. Of course, we all strive to acquire only quality items from a trusted manufacturer. Despite the enthusiastic comments about the products, many complaints were associated with the high price of Collins jeans. According to the layman, the brand's authority in the fashion industry is not so significant as to value its own products so dearly.
According to reviews of Collins jeans, the popularity of the brand encouraged enterprising businessmen to organize mass sewing of fakes. At first glance, the fake is no different from the original. The difference is noticeable only in cost - a fake is much cheaper. However, over time, the signs of an artificial brand are manifested by a low quality of fabric, breakage of lightning, uneven seams and quick abrasion of paint. To protect yourself from acquiring a fake, you should know several features of Colin`s brand identity.
Bright signs of models of jeans "Collins"
Having picked up Colin's products, examine the seams and pay attention to the color and density of the fabric. The fittings should not have flaws, as it is made of the same material. On the back of the buttons there is an imprint with the image of the brand, and metal zippers are equipped with double fixation. Collins men's and women's jeans along the bottom edge are always stitched with a duplicated seam.
Confirmation of authenticity are 2 company labels. The first in the form of a leather patch with the brand logo is located on the outside, the second, executed with a machine line, is inside the product.
A figured pattern on the back pockets is another feature of Colin's products. The original drawing is stitched with a double thread.
