Roaman’s® Denim 24/7® Brand Launches “Invisible Stretch® Jeans” for the Plus-Size Woman

Feb. 22, 2010 - PRLog -- New York, NY – Roaman’s®, a fashion leader in the women’s plus-size category and one of the most successful multi-channel retailers in Redcats USA’s portfolio, recently announced the launch of yet another ground-breaking design innovation – The Invisible Stretch® jean.  This jean has already taken the market by storm, filling an untapped niche in the plus-size category.

The innovative design of Invisible Stretch® (http://www.roamans.com/clothing/Ultimate-Straight-Leg-Jeans-with-Invisible-Stretch-by-denim-247.aspx?PfId=188606&DeptId=9831&producttypeid=1&PurchaseType=G&pref=ps) lies in a unique waistband that stretches, smoothes and supports--all without elastic. The customer can feel comfortable and look sleeker in her jeans while still enjoying the classic look of a conventional waistband. Equally impressive is Invisible Stretch®’s new pocket size and placement, leading to better proportions and an ultimately slimmer appearance. The jeans are available in three styles: boot cut, straight leg and capri – and in six washes.

Roaman’s® customers expressed that they wanted a more comfortable jean that looked like missy jeans.  But that wasn’t enough. They also wanted a slimmer look and feel, and until now, it seemed almost impossible to find.  The Roaman’s® design team was determined to figure out how to make the jeans feel more wearable without looking like typical ‘plus-size’ jeans.  And their mission was accomplished with outstanding success reflected in the positive feedback from customers and the better-than-expected sales since the initial launch.

“What could be smarter, or simpler, than listening to your customers?” said Blanca Vera, Vice President and General Brand Manager for Roaman’s®.  “We set out to deliver what our customers thought was just an unattainable dream. And we made it come true.”

The Invisible Stretch® line (http://www.roamans.com/clothing/Ultimate-Straight-Leg-Jea...) is currently featured in Roaman’s® catalogs, online at roamans.com (http://www.roamans.com/) and on the web’s only plus-size shopping mall at OneStopPlus.com. Customers can also order Invisible Stretch® jeans by calling 1-800-436-0800 and speaking to a knowledgeable customer service representative.

Customers can also follow Roaman’s on Facebook and Twitter.
