We’re getting in some bangin’ new jeans from this rad new company called Verses Jeans. They were profiled on North Carolina’s Public Radio in a story about the state’s garment industry.

Click here to give the interview a listen.

“Sarah Yarborough and Victor Lytvinenko started Verses Jeans in their Raleigh apartment last year. They’ve since moved into a warehouse near downtown and are shipping jeans to several stores across the county, and even one in the Philippines. The denim, zippers and almost everything else that goes into a pair of pants comes from North Carolina. They join Frank Stasio to talk about their business and their lofty goals to revive North Carolina’s garment industry.”
