    It's "I think you're confused". Sorry: not trying to be a jerk…

      Good thing we've got a Belgian who is an English major!  Lack of trying has never stopped anyone from being a jerk…
      The way I see it, the 25 oz is constructed like the 21oz denim with two threads wrapped around each other to create the weft. This is why the 21 oz is so breathable when others of similar weight may not be. This becomes more apparent after breaking in. With the 23 oz denim I'm pretty sure it is not constructed in this way, hence not as breathable, probably just as soft because they are both made from some fine ass cotton.  Maybe G can clarify for us. I like facts more than opinions and bitching/moaning.

          The Weft of 21, 23 and 25 (and the upcoming 17) are constructed as per Scroogens description.  We change the heft of the 2 twisted white threads to get the different ounceage.  The different in looks between the denims is to a great extent dictated by 1) the number of dips in indigo and te amount of oxidisation time and the tension with which the denim is woven…..

              need pictures in here.  just started wearing these (full time) so i'll see if i can help out.  the rise is low & the back pockects are bigger than i'm used to . . . oh also, the denim bleeds indigo more than any denim i've ever experienced. these really remind me of the way my 3sixteen shadow selvedge jeans are cut.

              will get pictures up in the next week or so.  got a bunch but internet been spotty at best

                happy that you´ve decided to go with these instead of the 666 25oz…looking forward to your next update!

                  just at the start of our journey.  thought it would be nice to share:


                  under guys don't get mad, i'm really a what is easier for me kind of guy

                  when i put these on i realize i should have went with a 33 per the waist, but my thighs tell me i did the right thing with a 34.

                  as a random monday moment; i'm glad this denim was reused on the recent self edge collaborations. it is one of the many things pushing me to that blanket lined jacket.  Sandy slowed me down. if i could figure out where i can get someone to put a beige cord collar on it & the DC4/Ducks bronze buttons . . .

                                  anyone do a full wash and dry on these? Wondering if they will shrink in the waist at all.

                                    Mine were stretched and a little loose before it hit the water. After the wash they were snug on my waist. Haven't worn them much after washing since they need repair.
                                    0 soaks

                                    That's from my experience hope that helps!

                                        Hello IH people.

                                        Wanted to share.

                                        1 cold soak. Maybe 150-180 days of easy wear. 3-4 month more and i will give them a cold wash.
