DL also takes eco-friendly measures like having its own onsite self-power generation that uses a heat recovery system, being partially solar powered and using laser machines to create character on garments as a waterless process to eliminate the use of chemical abrasives for a safe and fair environment for employees.which has a low rise and full length, super skinny leg.
