        The zipper on the coin part of my wallet is stuck. Wat do?

        Anything snagged in it?

        Try teflon grease or candle wax?

          Ugh, that sucks. It won't budge even a little bit? And nothing is jammed in the mechanism as you can see?

            Are any of the teeth loose or out of alignment?

            The other possibility if nothing is jammed in there is that one of the teeth got deformed

              Nothing I can see. It's jammed open. I can sometimes (very infrequently) get it to close with a ton of effort. But then I open it and I'm back where I started.

              Perhaps the teeth are not in the right order.
              Try this:
              Pull the zipper as much down as you can.
              Then pull at one side of the teeth.
              If you can´t hear a snapping sound;
              try out on the other side.
              If it won´t work out …..??? @TrickHell

                I know the yardage varies per run. But, how wide is a bolt or roll of typical IH denim, before it gets cut up and such?

                      I suspect that's the issue. If so… anything that can be done?

                      Pliers and dental picks to undo the zipper, but it'll get stuck again if you try to zip it. That zipper is toast if the teeth are loose or deformed

                          Looks right to me. Trim and the shoulders look good. I bet it's really warm.

                                    Gonna guess like most first run shirts, it's gonna depend on how it sells.

                                          Due to an unfortunate (but ultimately brilliant) accident the first 10 or so rolls of the new denim were woven with the wrong weft…..Doh.  It came out lighter in weight than we wanted.  So that has delayed things a little, I'm hoping to see finished samples when I am in Japan in 4 weeks or so, and see general availability March-ish.

                                          Why the brilliance?  Because we have a 13 or so ounce vintage type denim to make shirts from....Feckin BOOM....
