18oz indigo weft/indigo warp - IH-666SII and IH-634SII
-
I'm not so sure it would look 'cheap'. The 25oz jeans are almost this dark and have very thick, very bright stitching. I've never heard complaints about those, so I don't see why this would be an issue with the indigo/indigo.
true and true, but imo (and yes, i know the decision is already final!) these 18oz are serving a whole different niche. 25oz is brutal and loud, so the louder lighter threads do work pretty well with those…and o/course they are a bit lighter overall, so it matches the denim way better as it does on the 18oz blue warp and weft!
18oz and imo the way the whole denim looks like, it deserves to be a little less loud imo...gonna hold back with my statement until i've seen a "final" version with the indigo colored (after wash that is!) threads. maybe it doesn't even look that shitty from a far, but atm. blue would have been my vote!
so let's wait and see what the brilliant mind of G. (since H. doesn't like them that much) has for us in the end...watching and following this thread closely!

so i presume the work pant cut is out all the way?
i was super excited to see a selvedge work pant!
either way these look damn cool, will be hard to say no! i'm looking forward to seeing the washed version in hopes the thread takes on some indigo which is what i wanted in the first place.

contrast stitching on those is a bit loud… but it will look a lot better as they're worn in. Take the time with these (or any other pair of jeans) and you'll have great results.
