I think he’s trying to understand why he perceives the 19OZ to be heavier than the 21OZ,thinking that possibly something in the weaving process might account for the disparity.

If that is the case, maybe because the 19oz has a tighter weave than the 21oz, so it feels heavier…

@Derada:

out of my curiosity I thought that 19oz will be lighter than 21oz denim…

It is the differences in the fabric playing tricks on you. Its texture and heft make the 19oz seem heavier, although it isn’t. The same thing happens with the 12oz wabash. You can’t believe it is the same weight as th 12oz shirting denim. It seems much heavier. Heavier in fact than the 14oz kersey and 13oz serge shirting fabrics.

As someone who has a couple 12oz shirts and just acquired a 12oz Wabash- can confirm of feels much heavier.

I recently bought a IHSH-198 and love the little red W on the pocket. I also noticed there is one on the IHSH-197, another badass touch to a shirt.

Question is- what other shirts, if any, share this attribute? It is my favorite detail on my pants and jackets and would love to see it happen more. Anyone else on here share this sentiment?

The red W is killer! I agree that it’s my favorite possible piece of branding.

Thats exacly what I was trying to understand. Thanks for explanations. The 19oz feel heavier and sturdier than 21oz jeans. Must be the waving process.

IHSH-38 had the red W

@sabergirl heck yeah!

@Appfaff nice! I just looked that one up, I dig it.

agreed - the red 'W' would look awesome on any of the Dark/OD CPO's

Is 見習いボス"Boss's Apprentice" the highest rank you can achieve here? I noticed a few people have one more yellow square than me. But when I sort ranking it has me at the top so I guess it is not by post count? Edit: I guess 7 squares is the maximum and I have that. Idk if it changed since I checked?

Just put a Vintage Levis work shirt up for sale,and it has the Button fly style doughnut buttons. Thought that maybe,something like this, would give the work shirt guys some button pimping options.Having said that I have no idea if this is in any way practical from a fit,and or cost perspective. Never hurts to ask. 

[neph93]

That is a pretty interesting idea @Jett129 I wonder what H would think about it… I love it.

Speaking of Haraki,this picture was taken a year ago today.
