In their first week of release, the various Tens combined to sell 55,000 copies - including...

"You cannot make this business work by just spinning commodity yarn, making commodity-type fabrics and competing only on price," says Hensley. "We take a market and hone it and make the highest-quality [yarn] at the lowest price. We're constantly trying to find the next new thing...
