Who said it's cheap quality? Unbranded doesn't mean cheap. The company puts more money into the product rather than marketing, which the savings then get passed along to the consumer.

If you know anything about denim, you'll know that raw denim is pure denim that is not washed after it is dyed during production. It doesn't matter if there's stitching on the ass or not. Right away you can tell it's raw when you feel it. If the pocket stitching wasn't there and you touched 3 different pairs of raws, would you be able to tell which one is branded?

And what do you mean by "quality fades?" Any pair of raw denim will fade with wear over time. And theoretically, any pair of raw denim will "last longer" because of the lower amount of washes its been through.
