Trade shows are usually about deals and discovery. But at this July’s Kingpins in New York, the most important moments came from the conversations happening off the show floor. In this solo episode, Andrew Olah shares what he saw, what he heard, and what’s on his mind. The turnout was strong, the food was excellent (people notice!), and the hospitality made a difference. Still, there was an undercurrent of unease about what comes next.
At the heart of it all is one thing: uncertainty. With shifting tariff threats and delayed decisions, many in the denim world are stuck in a holding pattern. In this update, Andrew breaks down what that means for mills, brands, and workers. He also shares a broader view of the trends he’s watching, with a focus on staying informed, staying sharp, and finding ways to move forward even in a stalled moment.
This isn’t a forecast. It’s a clear-eyed look at where things stand right now. Andrew connects the dots between trade policy and the very real pressure that mills, factories, and denim businesses are feeling around the world.
