    I hope I can taste this wonderful SB-denim when the 666SB is back (in my size ;)).

      When I started working with Haraki almost 10 years or so ago, selvedge was not that important to him.  He had designed some denims for the biker market in Japan, and as long as the denim performed the function it was required to do, he did not care less (nor did most of his customers) whether it was selvedge or not.  One of the 3 denims he sold at the time was projectile loom woven 21oz superblack.

      As we worked together more, and I opened up the western market, the issue of selvedge became more and more important, because that is what the majority of customers prefer.  So, if we can make a fabric that is good enough for our needs on a shuttle (therefore selvedge) loom, we will.

      Yes, we can make the 12oz superblack denim on a shuttle loom, so we do.  We can't make the 12oz UHF on a shuttle loom, so we don't.

        This thread definitely deserves some more pics, even shitty mobile ones. This shirt has been on my list for quite a while and thanks to @Hereforthebeer I finally got it . Superhappy about it! 🙂

          True, true. I'll try and follow your example. Mine's a wardrobe stable, worn at least twice a week. Great fit btw.

                    Starting to get excited for these, sizing has prevented me pulling the trigger on the black wabash western to tide me over until these are restocked.

                      Anybody got this beauty and the super stealth 16 oz black shirt (IHSH-08ss)?

                      I'm copping one of these but can't decide on sizing. Millimeter by millimeter it's size one down from IHSH-08ss to this one, but that makes me an XS which is alarming (I wear rather small IH sizes usually though).

                      Or anybody got experience from buying a new IH shirt model and deciding sizing simply by comparing measurments with a shirt you own on the website and going with the closest? Was it successful?

                            I know nothing about ihhs-08, but these do shrink meaningfully. Not as much as as raw but you can get a lot with hot wash/tunnel dry.

                            I buy all my IH stuff based on measurements, not tagsize. Works for me.

                                aaaand copped.  Been waiting a while for this, and went starter pack with a pair of 666D's.  At least i'll be a well dressed divorcee when my wife finds out.

                                  I know this shirt won't fade much due to the reactive dye, but I'm curious to see if anyone has some updates on theirs.

                                  Me too, I am curious to see some evo picks of this or the western

                                  It is incredibly difficult to prove some evo. In the end this shirt is still black.  🙂
                                  The grey pic; leading us to believe that there is some.

                                    @DrBabyhorse just give the shirt to me. Problem solved. You're welcome. 😁

                                      Thanks @aetas.  Seems like there is some evo to be had.  Looking forward to beating the crap out of mine!

                                          Anyone get one of the newer XXL and done a wash?  Curious to see how much the shrinkage is on these length-wise.
