      Can't be done.  We made a sample 21oz shirt a few years ago.  Everyone got very excited, then we took it into production and it just could not be made.

      As a general principle, the best sewers in a workshop do the sampling, so sometimes they can do things that actually can't be done in bulk….

        I would like to see a revival of the IH-6526J, or a new version with pockets. And a restock on the chino pants.

          The IH-6526J will not happen again.  It sold slowly, and indeed we had to put them on special to move them.  A version with pockets is a great idea, but the minimum on this haraki designed double weave cord is probably too much for us to do again.  Once bitten etc etc…

          If you mean the poly-cotton Chinos - ditto...

          Sorry

                  I guess you don't move a lot of 40+ waist jeans. I had to turn to Japan to find the 666-xhs in a 40. Still a bit too small. Is the demand not there for sizes over 40?

                      Yeah, but unfortunately when a straight cut jean is sized that high, and my foot isn't an enormous size, it fits like a boot cut jean. I think I'm going to give the 1955 a try soon though.

                        These are what we have in stock in 42:

                        and these are what we have in stock in 44:

                        If there is evidence of sufficient demand, then we will of course broaden what we offer.  But generally demand for sub 30 and plus 40 is really low compared to other sizes.  Jean size demand is a really really steep bell curve…

                          I understand G. Thanks for at least making a few bigger sizes. I am going try a pair of the 1955s in the next month. After a stretch, a size 40 non-selvedge 634 fits pretty good, I just want another pair that's got a little more taper to it.

                                Two things I think would be awesome, even if longshots.

                                1. Requested previously but worth repeating a Navajo blanket shirt and/or jacket. Really want something of this nature and think H's take on such could be killer.

                                2. And this I think is the less likely of the two…more variations of Triple Works jeans. I know the current crop haven't exactly flown out the door, which is sad because the 17N fabric alone is something to behold. Just an OD or SBG of that would be something special

                                  What are the chances of y'all offering more denim selections in size 35 or 37?  I just ask because you mentioned the sizing curve earlier and it would be beneficial to some of the larger guys such as myself.

                                    Great suggestion Clint! I find myself at the 37 mark for most jeans that i want

                                      They sell really well actually, we have rerun at least once.  But we're dropping the TW label and branding everything Iron Heart.  A number of reasons, but one is that many people appear to be brand snobs and were missing out on some amazing gear….

                                        Amazing is a good description G. The 666N is easily the toughest piece of denim I have ever owned, and super comfy to boot.
