Sergio Valente

Sergio Valente is an American clothing brand best known for juniors' and women's designer jeans and stretch-denim fabrics. It is currently owned by the privately held Seattle Pacific Industries Inc. of Kent, Washington, which additionally owns the Reunion and Saltaire menswear brands and the Unionbay teen-clothing brand.

This article is about the clothing brand. For the Portuguese footballer, see Duda (footballer, born 1980). For the Argentine footballer, see Sergio Valenti.

The brand dates to 1975, but its supposed original designer - 'Sergio Valente' - is fictitious. Mr. Valente, in fact, never existed. The actual creator of the Sergio Valente brand jeans, was Englishtown Sportswear Ltd., a New York City-based company formed by William Hsu, Martin Heinfling, Brian Leung, Tony Lau, Eli Kaplan and Leo Zelkin. Kaplan was bought out around the early-to-mid 1980s, and Zelkin and Heinfling left the company by 1992, the latter a prominent Broadway producer at that point. The remaining shareholders, Leung and Lau, merged Englishtown into Seattle Pacific Industries, which relaunched Sergio Valente sometime thereafter.[1][2]

Sergio Valente has fashion showrooms in New York and Los Angeles. Its jeans are sold in the United States, United Kingdom and Japan.

gollark: > this is standard programming dogma, detailed logging takes a lot of space and typically you enable logging on the fly on clients to catch errors. this is literally cookie cutter "how to build apps 101", and not scary. or, phrased differently, is it scary if all of that logging was always on? obviously not as it's agreed upon and detailed in TikTok's privacy policy (really), so why is it scary that there's an on and off switch?This is them saying that remotely configurable logging is fine and normal; I don't think them being able to arbitrarily gather more data is good.
gollark: > on the topic of setting up a proxy server - it's a very standard practice to transcode and buffer media via a server, they have simply reversed the roles here by having server and client on the client, which makes sense as transcoding is very intensive CPU-wise, which means they have distributed that power requirement to the end user's devices instead of having to have servers capable of transcoding millions of videos.Transcoding media locally is not the same as having some sort of locally running *server* to do it.
gollark: That doesn't mean it's actually always what happens.
gollark: Legally, yes.
gollark: Also, that post complaining about the post complaining about tiktok appears inaccurate.
