^ nice pics and a great fit on those nerkg! I feel like I should jump on these. Everyone's fit pics look great. I need to see how much I have in the piggy bank.

You won't be disappointed, I've owned IH 634s, flatheads, ROY,PRPS raw, and this is the best denim by far. The only bad thing is there are only 300 made. So glad kiya had these made.

I agree, these look awesome in most of the fit pics posted. I would blow my wad if they made the same jeans except used the 'regular' coloured stitching.

Given the popularity of this release, who knows…

[derivative666]

Can't wait to get mine

[Guest]

I wonder how many they sold out of the /300 made, theres a bunch left on SE site

[Guest]

All things considered, how well do these breathe? Realistically, can they be worn during the summer, or is that asking too much?

[Guest]

I really don't think there to bad, I wear them to work where I load ups trucks and am sweating, my legs don't feel uncomfortable, I will be wearing them all summer regardless, I wanna see these things fade, I've been wearing this pair 7 days and already see fading in crotch, and tiny bit on honeycombs and knees, in bright sunlight of coarse, but seems like they won't take overly long to fade, I wear them from 3 am till 7pm daily, and wear them pretty hard. Also Just yesterday and today I've noticed that they are much more comfortable, it took about that long and I assume they will get better and better, kiya says I think that iron heart denim only streches in the waist not legs or top block but I've def experienced strech in just a week, cause I could barely walk at first and now they are perfect, Mabey just cause its a diff denim but either way, there noticeably getting more comfortable. Way way more than you asked for, haha.

i think they're gonna be hot as hell in the summer, the denim is tight and of course they're so dark they're just gonna soak up the sun, they feel a lot more like the 19/23 oz unsanforized denims in terms of breathability, not like the 21 oz sanforized denim that breaths much better

[Guest]

Jaco or Giles, will these get any heavier when soaked or washed or stick at 23oz.?

[jacoavlu]

G is the expert but I would say no, no shrink = no change weight

[Giles]

They wil get a tad heavier as there is a tiny bit of shrinkage

[jacoavlu]

well there you go; so G does that apply to the 21oz as well, or are you saying this denim behaves a little differently?

[Guest]

Even if only ever washed in cold water?

[Giles]

The 21oz probably actually weighs a bit more than 21oz.  The weight is calculated in the denims loomstate.  Haraki dips all the 21oz jeans prior quality control, so it will have shrunk a bit from the loom state…

[jacoavlu]

thanks G. crazy how two sanforized denims so close in weight can feel so different, great stuff from Haraki and company as usual.

ok now back on track here, I will not post again without a fit pic

[Guest]

Giles,What technically makes the two denims so different? I'm extremely interested in the process.

[Giles]

I will answer when I have more time.  Bear with me…..
