I can see GMB's perspective and this rings true for anyone who appreciates the passion behind IH denim and works.

That said I don't think any less of Gustin because of their take on production. They choose the fabrics, they design the goods and if it's economically viable -enough people commit before an item goes to production- then the schizzle happens. This model accelerated their growth and means of getting their passion and design out to as many as people as possible. I don't think it's fair to say they lack passion. Their products are from the same genre of hard wearing Americana that I love but that doesn't necessarily mean I love everything they do, like any brand. I say more power to them and any interviews or features I have read with their founders brims with an appreciation and passion for what they do.

I don't think they lack passion. They love what they do - spend a little time looking at their blog and listening to their customers on their forum.  I got exceptional customer service from the co-founder when I had a question/issue.

Looks like Gustin is finally releasing a heavyweight  26 ounce denim today.
Should be interesting.

You're not crazy. I had a pair of the 18oz  for a bit and the weave reminded me of my 461 (non S) but obviously the Gustin's are lighter. I was tempted by the 23 oz they have available now - a very dark and tight weave.

I met one of those guys at Imogene and Willie last summer. He seemed alright enough, but like I+W it doesn't seem like something I would go nuts for anymore.

What's up with anyone's boner for anything? Let the man point north for whatever he likes. No need to be desultory just cos it doesn't do it for you….
