…and there is probably a pocketed Sonny Barger in my future, to give an inkling of the strength of this conviction

I do have another denim jacket in the works.  Not saying anything about it until I have seen the first sample…....

[hajduk]

please, say something…

[Giles]

101

[hajduk]

bingo!
lined or not?

[Seul]

Blanket lined, is my guess then…

[Giles]

101 is all you are getting…..

[Giles]

And you know what?  I can't even remember what denim I specced, but I am not going to look because I like surprises too…...

[mclaincausey]

I was just fantasizing about an IH 101 with sawtooth contrast stitching on the placket last night…

[Giles]

What else you dreamt about?

@Giles:

This is a public forum unfortunately

Hmm a 21oz blanket lined 101 - two words - ding dong!

[mclaincausey]

Maybe a broken twill just to be crazy…

I love the details on this jacket… handpockets on  jackets are great (I always miss them, when they're not there) and embrace the extra length on the body and arm.

Regarding the one-wash vs. raw discussion: I know that most raw IH models sold slower and many people love sanforized denim for sizing security, but here you got the possibility to experience the whole soaking process in person - a must for denimheads.

A solution that could satisfy both groups would be to split the Lot in onewash and raw models, like already suggested. Gives you an impression of the occuring shrinkage and still offers the possibility of soaking yourself. I personally would like to control the process, as I don't think japanese maidens gently handwash my jeans over there, it should be a rather industrial procedure (correct me if I'm wrong)...

Raw ftw. I don't know why but they fade better.

Most people have no idea that we wash the IH-634S.  Indeed I had a stand up argument with one retailer who refused to believe me…..

[mclaincausey]

Wow that surprises me. It's so soft and pliant I'd have been surprised if my 634S weren't washed.

This band I've really been enjoying (Rival Sons–I think I mentioned them in Music, check em out) demonstrates impeccable style, a Lee Storm Rider 101-LJ (I think) being rocked on their Facebook cover:
