IH-803-indigo - Denim Herringbone Logger Pants

[Guest]

Those are beautiful. Weight please ? Just  an FYI, Giles, you should probably always mention the weight in a product introduction because people are interested in that info. Those are gorgeous pants though.

Good point Shub.  In this case, I have no bloody idea!!  First I knew about these was yesterday, Haraki likes to keep me guessing, possibly beacause I make his life hell ("Can you change this? Can I cancel that? Can you add this to the box you have just packed? Can you take this out of the box you have just packed? Can you get these to me earlier than humanly possible? etc. etc) and it's his way of getting back at me!!  He promised to get me close ups and much more info in the morning Tokyo time….

Totally LandoCal. I can so relate. If these gorgeous little motherfuckers are anywhere near 21-oz, I'm in DEEP SHIT !

My guess is that they are not. More likely somewhere around the weight of the IH-801 and IH-802 (16oz or 17oz). Just my guess. The wait is part of the fun.

Phew ! Or I was gonna be homeless next month ! We'll see. 16oz or heavier is very respectable though.

Don't knock it until you've tried it. 

[Guest]

Tried what ? Being homeless or 16-oz IH denim ? Heee heee. That's my lame attempt at being funny. I'm sure 16-oz is plenty heavy LandoCal. No doubt about it. I need to get over that prejudice I have against lighter weight IH jeans.

double knee ? so u better hope it´s "only" 16oz…

[Giles]

Well, here are some more images  Haraki says 10.25oz, available beginning of May, designed primarily as a light weight pair of Summer work pants:

That herringbone sure is cool!  Hopefully it makes it into a shirt or two…

Nice idea - on the case….

These are up on the Japanese site:

As well as the hickory logger:

Giles, didn't you also say that these will also be produced without the double knee?

[Giles]

I did, but I got so few +ve enquiries, I decided not to give Haraki the extra hassle - sorry (& now I'm about to be hated by those of you who wanted them).

I may stock  few of the double-legs, but safer to PM me if you want a pair.  G

if these are IH-803, then they should be herringbone loggers

not that it's a big deal, it has the same measurements as IH-802 in hickory.
personally i'm liking this more than the hickory. the faded blue in herringbone works so much better in bootcut than the monochromatic hickory.

Fobsquad, you're right.  My fingers did not follow my brain when typing the title.  Have changed it.  Thanks for noticing…G
