14oz Selvedge Indigo

[StarsSuck]

I am pretty excited for this-Philly gets brutal hot during the Spring/Summer months and all UHFs and 21ozs get hung neatly aside… Sigh.

Un saludo!

Hoping for the 634 to go up or be posted soon

Talk about shifting gears!  Going from the 21 to 14oz 777s … high speed low drag!

Just photographed the 634S-14's @Jordonf9 they'll hopefully be going live today.

@Giles have you noticed about the same stretch compared to the 21oz selvedge? Looking at knees and thighs, thanks.

[Giles]

About the same…...

Sounds like a good fabric weight for hot climates! I'll be buying a pair cut from this fabric as soon as a suitable cut exists

Finally warming up here. Look forward to the arrival of the 666. Any ETA?

[Giles]

Next 2 weeks I reckon…..

Hallo @Giles

Any news about the 666s 14 oz incoming?

[Giles]

The Raw are ready to ship from Japan.  Not that I am taking any, so the one-wash won't be far behind….

Wearing my 634 in 14oz for the first time today.  I'm impressed.  I had plenty of denim in this weight range from other manufacturers before,  but these are seriously better than anything else I had.  Now waiting to see their fading characteristics.

It is definitely an impressive denim. Feels pretty substantial for 14oz for sure, my 15oz Strike Golds feel light in comparison. I have a feeling this denim has lots of potential for very nice fades.

Does anyone know who is going to carry the raw 634 or 666 ?

[Giles]

666 Statement, Denim House, Pronto, Volls
634 Pronto

But these are sanforised, so there is not a great deal of shrinkage. All we have done with the "S" version is washed them, which is what you really should do before you wear them anyway.

[ChrisJ]

Thanks Giles.
I didn't realize they were the same except for a wash. That makes things easier.

[Giles]

My sample 666S-14's after about 7 months and a dozen or so washes….

[Giles]

After spending 10 or so days in this denim, I have to say I'm blown away at how nice it is. When this denim was announced, I thought "sweet, I'll be able to comfortably wear a pair of IH's in the summer finally", and that was enough to justify ordering the 666 version. I have enough IH that I know any denim they release will be awesome, but this denim far surpassed my expectations. I can confidently say that the 14oz denim is even softer and more comfortable than the legendary 21oz, and while it probably has a tighter weave, it can't possibly be much tighter because it has plenty of stretch and give to it, and seems to breathe well enough. At the same time, it feels way more substantial than I'd expect, it feels more like 16-17oz to me. It lacks the "sheen" of the 21oz denim, but it makes up for it by having more character and texture. Props to @Haraki-san for being open-minded enough to try his hand at lighter weight stuff, he really knocked it out of the park with this denim.
