Not necessarily - remember Nike's factories? It may be the case that it's all markup for the company with no extra $$ for the workers.

There's a price threshold below which you don't get good fabric - but that threshold is way less than $280 from what I've seen (and yes, I've seen what I consider good jeans in the $15 range).
