16.5oz Raw Indigo/Indigo Duck

Ooh, if there's going to be a 634 loombreaker, I might have to change my mind about waiting to see what self edge collabs might be…

I understand the weave is different on duck vs whatever, but how does it affect the fabric and fading tendencies?

G, count me in for a pair of the 634DD's

All things being equal, (dyeing process, yarn size & composition, etc.) I don't think duck would fade any differently than denim.  After all, they're just another form of cotton pants dyed with indigo.  Being a basket weave rather than a twill weave, they shouldn't stretch, which is a major difference.  I also think duck doesn't feel quite as soft as denim, but that could totally be a subjective difference, not one with any basis in reality.

So the Loom Breaker addition will or will not be selfedge?

So far it has only broken the shuttle loom, but I guess that remains to be seen. Maybe this fabric will also break the projectile loom.

The whole point is that the limited run is the selvedge duck that broke the loom.  I have enough for about 100 pairs.

No leg twist either.
