634s-SEXIH13 - 23oz Selvedge - Straight Fit

[xtcclassic]

So no more of this denim is being produced? Bummer. It's so damn hardcore, yet so beautiful at the same time. I'm so glad SE was out of the 666-XHS when I tried to order a pair, otherwise I would never have discovered this glorious denim and would now be kicking myself furiously and repeatedly.

about the "no more 23oz denim" thing.

this is what Kiya told me yesterday:
@kiya:

Sorry but that fabric was a limited edition item we made and its now run out, we have a new fabric we worked on that will be out later this year though.

sounds like music to my ears

[tatmantall]

Yep. Same thing he told me.

Another vote for the nicest denim I've touched/interacted with. Mine still look nearly as good as new, as expected. Might see if I can get some detailed pictures up tomorrow. Love how they fit too. I'd buy another pair without doubt.

[seanocono]

Snowy, your SEXIH13s are one of the best few fits on the forum.

[fanya]

Is the 23oz denim a 100 percent SE exclusive? As in IH can't make another run if they wanted too?

[Giles]

We could, but we don't piss on agreements…..

[Seul]

Credit where credit's due…

[Nerkg]

Couldn't you come to a sort of agreement with kiya

[Giles]

No.  Kiya asked for exclusivity, we were happy to give that to him.  Exclusive = exclusive, at least where H and I come from.

[zhivago]

that's what it's all about right there!

[Seul]

Exactly!..

[fanya]

I understand, a man's word is all he has.

It just sucks this denim will never be rerun,. I'll just be grateful I got one pair

[tatmantall]

as giles always says, "Never say never." I'm sure that kiya has taken note that even just in the last few days there has been a peaked interest in this denim being reproduced. I think he just wants to put out some unexplored territory before rerunning a denim they just offered recently. From a business standpoint I get it that many customers are always on the lookout for the next best thing or being on the "brink".
But there will always be us old farts too who feel that if it aint broke don't fix it!

[Nerkg]

Well the sexi13 was a run of 300, it sold very slow, the 634 version was 100 and sold faster but I think kiya was prolly scared to sit on all that inventory, learned his lesson. But I agree with you tat, if there's a bunch of money to be made, I think never is a strong word. Espessially when you stumble on a denim that is that good. I'm sure they gave the specs they wanted but how could they know it would come out like that

[fanya]

The sexih13 was such an odd cut it doesn't surprise me.  Amazing denim, odd cut.

[tatmantall]

are you guys talking about the sexihxlsxa13? that was an odd cut… but the same denim as these. I don't feel like the sexih13 was odd at all... its very similar to the traditional IH634 it was modeled after.

[Nerkg]

It wasn't an odd cut. The problem was the waist size , it wasn't in proportion with the thigh. Possibly a mistake.. The 33 waist was actually 36. But the thigh and knee were as if it was 33

[mclaincausey]

If there's any of those available why doesn't somebody just buy one and run it through some alterations?

[tatmantall]

a jean with a disproportionate waist to thigh ratio such as I have read about with this particular jean is what i believe would constitute an "odd cut" , i dont know how else to describe besides that. Especially since a hypothesis of a mistake is pure speculation ( at least as far as my reading on this jean has educated me) one can only assume that it was in fact the way that the jean was designed and intended to be therefore making it in the particular "odd"
