      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…

            Actually, just redone the sums, we can do USD375…...

                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!

                          I really like the cargo pants and hope to see them available for purchase some time in the future.  I already own the 6634 corduroy pants in olive green. Any idea if the cargos will be made in any other colors?

                            Possibly all 3 existing cord colours….
