    i love corduroy but real good quality ones are hard to come by, i am sure these would be up there with the best.

    not so keen on the cargos myself. super dense soft fabric in a worker double knee design just dont make sense to me.

              Sick stuff… Don't think I'll venture out beyond the corduroy shirt, but that gear looks top bollocks...

                        About USD400.  Spenny, but the double weave is super expensive to make…....

                          Eeek :o. Comfortably more expensive than the EG's then, would need to decide if i could afford/want to drop something else in order to pick these up instead :-\

                            Sorry, the cost of the cord is WAAAAY more than the 21oz selvage denim.  A pisser, but true…

                                  Because a double wave fabric is more complicated to weave than a single weave.  And we make miles of 21oz denim,  we effectively have one loom running full time doing it, it is a known quantity, and we do it well and relatively easily.  The cord is a new fabric that has taken a lot of experimentation to create and we are doing it in small batches…

                                    Ahh yes double face of course i should have saw that coming. Anyway if all goes well do you think it will join the line up on a permanent basis?

                                        Personally speaking a great move and one i predict will do well, in the straight cut anyways.

                                          And a IH-701 style cargo pant done in the Green

                                          Not sure of timescales….....

                                          Your thoughts.......

                                          I don't own much corduroy, and generally don't like cargo pants…and yet I kind of love these.  🙂

                                          However, do I 375-dollars-worth-of-love them?  If I'm honest, probably not.  But since you asked for our thoughts, G, there are mine (for what they're worth).

                                          ...but if I win the lottery, will definitely purchase!
