Kingpins Show
Textile Manufacturing
Global denim supply chain show with a focus on innovation, sustainability and transparency.
About us
Kingpins started out in 2004 as a tiny denim supply chain show for folks tired of the mad scramble and soul-deadening crush of handshakes and "who are you's?" and badge-checking at the huge, impersonal sourcing shows that dominate the industry. The idea was: keep the exhibitor list tight, invite only the best brands, serve tasty food, treat everyone like family and create an atmosphere that's conducive for networking and relationship-building. It worked out pretty well. We are still small, but we've gone global. You can now find Kingpins shows in New York, Hong Kong, Amsterdam and China. But we haven't let that go to our heads. We're still invitation-only and our exhibitor list is still a highly-edited selection of vendors that include denim and sportswear fabric mills from the U.S., Japan, China, India, Morocco, Pakistan, Egypt, Mexico and Europe, wash houses, full package manufacturers, trim providers and business solutions. Basically, if it's denim or can be worn with denim - we've got it. king·pin noun /ˈkiNGˌpin/ 1. (motorized vehicles) The axis around which steered wheels pivot; a bolt that holds the axis in place - a kingbolt. 2. (ten pin bowling) The pin at the center of the triangle of bowling pins (originally the tallest pin in kayles). Sometimes also the headpin at the apex. 3. The most important person in an undertaking or organization. Synonyms Most important person: big cheese, big enchilada, big kahuna, bigwig, big wheel, grand poobah, head honcho, muckety muck, top banana, top dog, big noise

Prepare to accessorize in style! TENCEL™ by LENZING is gifting denim bandanas to all show-goers! As the fashion industry seeks out sustainable material options, TENCEL™ Lyocell and regenerative cotton are a perfect match! The denim industry has always been highly reliant on cotton as the main raw material,” said Tuncay Kilickan, head of global business development, denim at Lenzing. “With the increasing pressure to address sustainability concerns, the denim industry has started to rethink a new way of cultivating cotton, which traditionally requires large amounts of land, water and chemicals, which not only harm the environment but also farmers and their communities. By using regenerative cotton, denim brands can align with consumer preferences and differentiate their products in the market.” You are invited to explore Lenzing’s TENCEL™ x Regenerative Cotton collection in the White Area, Booth 4 and celebrate Kingpins 20th year anniversary with TENCEL™ denim bandanas! Kingpins Show NY July 17-18,2024.

Many of the denim industry’s 2025 sustainability commitments are not aging well. How can we accelerate ahead of 2030? Apparel companies are racing against the climate crisis clock with progress on 2025 goals slower than expected. Looking ahead, government intervention offers hope for accelerated change while the denim industry anticipates a mixed outcome next year.

Fashion’s Big Shift: Over the past fifty years, the fashion industry has shifted from Western-owned garment factories to reliance on foreign production centers, transforming brands into marketing entities. Today, there's a growing trend for factories to reclaim brands, emphasizing innovation and consumer loyalty through quality products rather than price alone.

What is the most insightful piece of exhibitor or buyer feedback you have received that you are incorporating into the remainder of 2024? One of the thoughts in my mind has been that women are an important part of this community, and I want to see them recognized and rewarded for their talents, their knowledge and their ambition. Thankfully, our platform provides us the opportunity to make the idea into reality. I am grateful for everyone who support us thus far. “Fight for the things that you care about. But do it in a way that will lead others to join you.” ~ Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Supply Chain News: INTENTIONS VS. IMPACT As the two-year mark approaches and stakeholders push for more, the effectiveness of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) depends on who you ask. U.S. brands & retailers navigate hurdles under the UFLPA, reshaping denim sourcing. The law bans goods from China's Xinjiang region prompting supply chain shifts. The industry and importers, burdened by proof requirements, adapt with tech solutions. Yet, concerns rise over enforcement and EU actions.

Legler’s Legacy Once upon a time (that is 2-3 decades ago) European mills dominated the fashion denim world; in almost every country there was one or more denim mills producing some of the most interesting and innovative fabrics. Sadly, they are almost all gone. One mill stood out for a long time for their cotton products in denim, corduroy, and flats: Legler. Originally set up in Switzerland in the 1700s, by the 1800s it relocated to Ponte San Pietro in northern Italy.
