IH-555-xx - Super Slim Jean

[Giles]

This a new very slim jean that we have developed with and for The Denim Vault in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Vincent would like your view as to whether we should do indigo or yellow arcs.

NB:  There are three versions of this jean:

IH-555-01 21oz Sanforised Indigo Selvage Denim
IH-555-02 18oz Raw Indigo Selvedge Denim
IH-555-03 21oz Black SBG Denim

[unharmed]

Nice! I am assuming that the indigo thread would not fade at the same rate as the denim (if it fades at all) so would become more apparent as the denim fades around it, right?

[Giles]

Yes, that is what'll happen.

[unharmed]

That gets my vote then.

[Giles]

"Stealth" arcs will look like this over time….

[unharmed]

Cool. I actually really like that. What are the jeans in the pic?

[Giles]

DC4001's

[bagley920]

I like the stealth

^ DC4001 (I believe they are ChuckDenim's pair).

cool beans, i am looking forward to these & the Denim Vault dudes are maniacs in a good way.  remeber the party pics with all the Iron Heart soldiers

[unharmed]

Thanks.

[Finn666]

please go with stealth arcs…i actually would like/love to see more stealth arcs on IH denim! looks dope whn wearing a faded pair of jeans!

[madmonday]

it's real early on these, but i have a good feeling about them & can see them done-up in a few different types of denim in due time.

[Giles]

I'm with you MM.  I think they will do real well and I already have plans for different denim make-ups….

So would this be like the 25 oz where it starts as a store version but ends up as a regular version?  And what kind of "super slim" are we talking about here in relation to the other slims?  If the 666 is the Devil's Fit would the 555 be the Downstairs Neighbor of the Devil's Fit?

I voted blue by the way.

[Giles]

No, it will only ever be sold at The Denim Vault and ironheart.co.uk…

[Kikuchi]

Stealth arcs wud be very sexy indeed.. Think I'm a bit biased since all my jeans have either stealth or no arcs.. Haha
The picture says it all.. They look awesome with indigo arcs

So yea indigo arcs shall be my vote..

[og kush]

So yellow is the normal arc stich color? If that's the case would the works W then be red or would that be yellow as well?

[Giles]

The W can be any colour but yellow.  This is reserved for Triple Works….

I gave Tom a verbal design and for the life of me I can't remember what opening I specced, but it should be significantly narrower than the 666S.

Part of the reason we went with 555 is that it looks like SSS - Super Slim Selvedge
