634s-SEXIH13 - 23oz Selvedge - Straight Fit

Thanks to mic and nerk. Half thanks to Mr. Giles for keeping cards close to chest re: trade secrets (since your response did answer my question in part since there was a tacit admission anti-fade chems are used in IH denim).
Nothing tacit about it. We have never made a secret of the fact that we treat the 21oz denim to retard it's fading. What is a secret is what we do.

Is there a reason the 21oz indigo gets it and the other jeans dont?
-
Haraki's first denim for Iron Heart and his baby. He decided he wanted to retard the fading, so he did. I've never bothered asking him why, it just is what it is. He asked me the other day if I wanted to release some jeans without the treatment. I said no, mainly because I did not want to mess with his baby. Plus there's a shit load of other denim available now or soon to be available.

Without hijacking the 23oz denim thread (a major love of mine), I love the slow fading and major softness of the 21oz flagship. I know the 21oz's are going to be around for MANY years and still look nearly new; that durability is what I love.
THIS 23oz denim is really rich, it feels soft and stiff at the same time and has so many hues, that and it gets electric blue fades. Would still buy another pair of this 23oz

Me too

Anyone have any compromising pictures of Kiya or something?

Hahaha

Yeah but I can't edit myself out of 'm…

Oink

I don't get the reason for not re running, I can see if they didn't sell in the past. But wtf? Mabey pride. He said no so that's it.
Can't blame kiya for wanting to try something new. It doesn't mean that the 23oz is gone forever; it just means that there are no plans for it in the immediate future.

Gave my pair of these their first wash over the weekend, and wearing again now. It's like first love all over again. No real fade changes as a result of the wash, as expected, what I was not, however, expecting was the texture to change so much. They've gone from feeling silky smooth and bullet proof, to bullet proof and fibrous. Very exciting development.

^That will happen with every wash btw, but they soften up again after 2 or 3 days.
Oh, and pics please!
