IHSW-10 - Ultra Heavy Plain Loopwheeled Sweat

[seanocono]

@Giles:

Could be.  Hope so…

Me, too.  Like Mike, love my -05.  I nearly pulled the trigger on the -10 a couple times, but the length held me back.  If we see a return to measurements like the -05, I will cop two.

Anybody know the ounceage on these?  N&F (yeah..yeah…) has a loopwheeled hoodie they describe as 14oz vintage knit.  What are these, I know the tees are 7.5oz.

[mclaincausey]

Heh no "yeah yeah" required. Nothing wrong with N&F.

That said, I have no answer to your query, except to say "fucking heavy". Only Strike Gold among the fleeces I've seen exceeds it.

Functional gusset, roomy neck, heavy, soft fleece. IH is highly recommended.

[Ponyboy312]

Thanks.  I gots some N&F, but I see 'em get dissed in the forums alot so I figured I'd offer a yeah yeah disclaimer so as not to become the victim of a hate crime.

[mclaincausey]

Haha. I think we may be a less judgmental bunch here.

Here's a shot of the pile and some folds on a natural, hopefully this gives an idea. Details like the yellow overlock stitching… I mean it's Iron Heart. That means reliable excellence

Nice shot. I can tell from the detail, if I go IH, I better be ready for some heat…this wont be a casual, any weather hoodie.

@MikeC:

Is the new version for fall still coming in olive?  I fucking love my IHSW-05.

G, any more word/discussions on an olive hoodie?

[Giles]

There was a discussion yesterday on the forum about whether it was going to be olive or dark green.  I was originally told olive, but it may have morphed.  I will know in the next few days….

[veloaudio]

Dark green would be nice. Thanks for the update

[Giles]

Black, grey and dark green inbound….

[Max Power]

Oh. Didn't see this coming. Might have a look at the dark green.

[Giles]

@volcano:

Yes, Yes

Yes, Yes

thanks G! seems like it's easy to choose.. looks and focus at the GREEN one in medium

[crankyfart]

and, ordered the Green in Medium. 

[Winchy]

Sizing for XXL is available now as are restocks and two new colours (Green & Grey).

Hey G do you run the same long staple cotton in the sweat as is used in the jeans?
thanks
Love the new green color BTW…

[Giles]

I suspect not, it may be longer than normal because of the heft of the fabric, but cotton for a sweat has very different requirements than a cotton for denim…

Thanks G,
Quick rephrase: are they soft as hell, durable as rock, not prone to excessive pilling, get softer with wear rather than breaking down, and hold dye better than death?
If so, they be long staple cotton.
