Selvedge is the term for the self-finished edges of fabric. The selvedge keep the fabric from unravelling or fraying and is a result of how the fabric is created. In woven fabric, selvedges are the edges that run parallel to the warp (the longitudinal threads that run the entire length of the fabric), and are created by the weft thread looping back at the end of each row.

Hidden rivets are similar to the exposed rivets on the front of a pair of jeans, but they are attached before the stitching is done rather than on top of the pocket after stitching. This means that the rivet is only visible inside the jeans. Hidden rivets were generally dropped in the 1980s as they are complicated and expensive to attach, but have since featured on “proper” jeans.

side seams and fly construction
The fabric to be sanforized is moistened by water and/or steam, this lubricates the fibres and reduces the inherent friction within the fabric. Once moist, the fabric enters the sanforization process proper. Here, an endless rubber belt is squeezed between a pressure roll and a rubber belt cylinder, it is here that the stretching of the elastic belt surface occurs. The more the rubber belt is squeezed, the more the surface is stretched. This point of squeezing is known as the pressure zone, or the nip point. The fabric is fed into the pressure zone and upon leaving it, the rubber belt recovers itself and the surface returns to its pre-squeezed (stretched) size carrying the fabric with it. The effect of this action is a shortening of the warp yarns, which packs the filling yarns (weft), closer together: at this moment, shrinkage occurs.
After compaction, the fabric enters a dryer where the fibres are locked in their shrunken state as the moisture is removed from the fabric

The stretch that occurs can be eliminated when the friction within the fabric is reduced. This will happen during soaking and/or washing, where both water and soap act as lubricants. The lubricants, along with the mechanical action of the washer, help the fibres relax and contract (shrink) back to their original length.
One of the reasons that dry cleaning does not shrink natural fabrics is that the friction within the fabric is not reduced by dampening.
