    thanks for sharing. if you wanna go way back, go read through the IH and Self Edge threads on sufu, loads of interesting stuff, unfortunately the bits and pieces of real history and interest are sprinkled amongst an assload of useless junk

    for instance what became the 19oz SExIH07 originally was to be a SExTW collab with 16oz natural indigo dyed denim. And the Levi's lawsuit stuff. And leftofthedial's story about getting stabbed and his jeans getting cut off in the ER and then Kiya and his friends hooked him up with a new pair which are now one of the highlights of the sexih07 thread here. Good stuff

      @jacoavlu:

      And leftofthedial's story about getting stabbed and his jeans getting cut off in the ER and then Kiya and his friends hooked him up with a new pair which are now one of the highlights of the sexih07 thread here.

      I actually read his post on Sufu a couple days after he posted it. I've been a lurking on Sufu since I was introduced to the denim culture back in high school, but I should go back and do some reading as it's been awhile.

      And if remember correctly, the first pics of an IH jeans on the IH Thread were taken in the owners office and the brand was so unknown at the time that no one could really give him feedback on it. Pretty unbelievable now, since IH is synonymous to quality heavy denim jeans.

      And it's always a pleasure reading the posts during the levi lawsuit. The tense planning and and waiting on what the outcome of the court case was, and then the immediate change in arcurate design/leather tag/red tab. Which, if I'm not mistaken, was literally down overnight. All great information people need to be exposed to.

      It's great that their are veterans out there like you Jaco that can school us young folks on denim history/culture. Otherwise, it'll all just be another brand to us.

        oh no no I'm not a veteran at all, quite the opposite really. the vets know all this stuff and loads more just that most of them don't waste as much time here as I do

          There are (a very few) pairs of IH out there that have zero arcs….....These were made in the "oh feck what now?" lawsuit days......wonder where they are......

            Oh, I know what you mean by "veteran." But to be honest with you, with your knowledge of stuff and ability to answer some stumping questions, its not hard to mistake you as one.

            I'm sure we all know who the "Veterans" are. They seldom speak. They rather have their actions(or rather, their wardrobe) do the talking. 😉

            Mr. G; I believe Haraki-san posted a picture of a "prototype arc" on his blog. He stumbled upon on it when the owner needed it to be repaired. But no arcs? Never heard or seen…

                            wow, great random page.

                            jaco like it or not you have veteran hunt skills & have been around long enough not to be considered a newbie.  the only reason i shy away from calling you a vet is cause you are still actively buying.

                            j-iv i like reading the old stuff as well, lots hidden in plain sight

                            hajduk, you get help yet? a glowing endorsement from seul goes a long way
