    just thinking, the denim used in DC4001 is the 21 oz signature denim right? but why is it fade slower than any other 21oz signature models (634S,301S).. again, CMIIW..

      No reason why it should, they are exaclty the same denim….

        Funny, I would have said exactly the opposite. My DC4001 bled blue at great speed leaving me with smurf hands all the times for about 6 weeks. With the 634s I hardly see any colour loss on shirts etc. I even started to wear white shirts tucked in the 634s because they do not bleed.
        I guess it just depends on the production run and the way the indigo got into the jeans. Each pair or batch is different.

          Hippo, absolutely spot on.

          On a related point, difference in the temperature and humidity in the mill will make the shuttle looms behave differently as will the time duration since the last service.  All of these factors (and more) will make each batch of fabric different….

                          I should probably post this in the IH product ideas thread. Well my idea involves the dc 4001 patch so here it goes.  I'm actually in the market for a new bible cover and I'm thinking a 21 oz denim bible/holy Koran/whatever the fuck book cover would be the shit for us churchgoers. And this patch would be PERFECT on the front!  Or even the 666s patch would be a cool option for a touch of irony or for legitimate devil worshipers.  God, that would be cool!

                                ahh..should have explained meself a bit better. I get the patch part. It's the whole bible-churchgoing thing. I guess it's geo-cultural thing.

                                  I wish I didn't have this desire to sound cute or witty with every post.  I annoy myself.  But I really do carry this big bible to and from church twice a week and I really am looking for a bible cover/carrier. After searching for a high quality leather one, all I found were cheap ass nylon or pleather bullshit with "Jesus is my homeboy" written on it.  Then it hit me that I would absolutely love an Iron Heart book carrier for my bible in 21oz denim or 16oz duck with THIS dc4001 patch dead center.  Aside from my personal desire for one, "church stuff" is big business and it would sell like crazy!  Lots of Jesus people.  Probably wouldn't work with the Iron Heart brand cause "bible cover" sounds WAY too religious. Maybe even offensive to some.  Just the wrong market I guess.  But "book cover"…  I'll stop talking about this now.  Stupid idea.  This should be in a different thread.  Is there a thread for self indulgent rambling somewhere? Sorry to derail.

                                    we should have a thread called "jumping the shark ideas"

                                    like this, an Iron Heart denim book cover, it's not a bad idea, but that's basically the definition of jumping the shark, which I'd rather not see from IH

                                        Irrespective - I agree. An accessory too far…

                                          just to stay off track,

                                          uncut you might be able to source the goods you need to get a custom job done if you contact Giles & the Madame for scrap denim & maybe a patch.  Might cost you to have it shipped to the states or maybe the extras can be shipped to you when you place an order.  Just an idea to get the materials & then take them to a local artisan type to make your dreams a reality. & i don't think it's a bad idea & big up to you for standing up & saying what you believe in.  nothing wrong with that & i do respect it (even if this isn't really the place for it, but when is the place for it  >:()
