    Come on all you heavy weight hitters! Time to tell us what your favorite IH denim is and why? What dyeing/process do you prefer for your favorite denim?

    21oz is my favorite at the moment. The 21oz feels so great to the touch, breathes remarkably well for the weight and is fekkin beautiful. Indigo is all I own so that as of now is my favorite dye, but I really love the look of the OD.

      I'm a traditionalist, so 21oz for me  🙂

        I'm going with the 18oz.  Nothing will ever surpass the traditional 21oz for popularity and it is a truly brilliant constructions, the double spun weft gives the denim supreme heft but keeps it amazingly soft.  That said, the 18oz was my idea and Haraki built it to my specs, I love the feel, I love raw and I love the high contrast fading.

          G, I also love the 18oz. When it gets cooler I think the 18oz will become the ATM favorite, I know that seems backwards but the 21oz seems cooler in hot weather. The feel to the touch of the 18oz is my favorite though, and high the contrast fading is just awesome. To me it's honestly a love affair between the two.

            The 18 has a much tighter weave than the 21, thus it breathes less readily than the 21.  Which actually is another remarkable thing about the 21, it breathes fantastically well, often feeling cooler than a tightly woven 13.5oz…

              though i´ve voted for the 21/23oz denim (i love my 634s-raw!) i´d also say that the 21oz denim is the best…used to own the 7301s and till today they were the most comfortable denim i ever owned!...can´t wait to get my hands on another 21oz pair (301s or 8301s) 🙂

                i voted for 21 oz, but i guess that's just because i havent tried on 25 oz yet..

                  G and his "This 18 oz. denim was specially made for me by Haraki" lah-die-dah nonsense…

                      It all prefers on temps though…

                      Hot: 21 oz
                      Do-able: 19 oz 07 denim
                      Cold: 25 oz

                      But since I don't want 3 pairs in rotation: 25 oz. denim and 17 oz. duck...

                      And I suppose a THANK YOU GILES is in order  😉

                        21oz overdye for mine..

                        Although I hake Mankarats 24oz inbound, so my opinion may change 😉

                          I'm not sure I have a favourite; they all have their points.

                          At the moment I'm just getting back into 21oz after a long period of 25oz - I'd forgotten how 'welcoming' the 21oz denim is. It's like coming back to an old friend.

                          In terms of fast/contrast fading, my 19oz Indos are wayyy ahead of the others. The 25oz is as stubborn as a mule, but after some wear it looks great.

                          Still haven't ventured into the 18oz IH denim, but sometime soon that will change.

                            I'd have to go with the 18 oz..yes the 21's are magical in The way they are soft but the shine that is developing on my 18 oz pair is pretty damn cool.  Oh and im a sucka for rigidness.

                                      I love 21 oz in both forms, sanforized and od. They have great look and feel and all.  I want to repeat: I really really love them.
                                      But
                                      every time I jump into my 666XHS… Ouch!
                                      25 oz is the ultimate, period.  😘

                                        25oz hands down. I don't understand why people say it's warm in 25oz.. I wear it every single day in 35 degree celcius weather and I still don't find it warm.

                                          Looks like 21 oz is where it's at so far?
