      Good question.  I do the broad strokes and never consider the details…...

        @Giles:

        Requested the following samples today:

        IH-526S-14 - Modified Type III in 14oz selvedge
        IH-777S-ABC - The ABC is a Pseudonym for a retailer.  777 cut in 21oz SBG with all tonal stitching (inc arcs and "W") and charcoal herringbone pocket bags…..

        I've changed the title of this thread as my posts don't always come with pics.....

        @Giles regarding the 526S Modified Type III, does the "Modified" mean it will have the same fit as the 526L with a longer body? Or will it fit more like the 526J?

        You won’t be satisfied until you wear Iron Heart.

          More like the 526L, longer and with hand warmer pockets….

            G, Tonal stitching on the handwarmer pockets by any chance?

                    Damn, those OD pieces look great.  Any idea when the type I sample might be done? (I'm expecting to hear "whenever it's done."…)

                      We have sampled that bloody jacket 2 times already.  Firstly in the non NI 17oz, we loved it, then decided to retire the denim, so we did another sample in 18oz, but the 18oz proved too stiff for the OD process, and the denim got seriously damaged, so we're now trying the 14oz…..I've given up even looking forward to iteration 3, when it turns up it turns up.....

                        So the stealth 526 with tonal stitching is cancelled?

                          NO.  The stealth 526 is being made from Natural Indigo 17oz.  The denim we have stopped making is the non NI 17oz (that is why the IHSH-76 and 99 are being end-of-lifed).  And the reason we did not use the NI for the Type I is that a combination of NI, organic cotton and overdying was going to make the price stratospherically high…..

                              Every time we weave a batch of 25oz, we think it may be the last…..

                              That being said, what's the word on the 25oz. Double Indigo?

                                Being woven.  Patch almost designed.  Two cuts, I'm taking about 40 or 50 of each cut….

                                  No chance of one of them being 555?

                                        G, any ballpark idea when these will drop? I am having a tough time just getting funds ready for the two UHFs I hope to buy.  A little lead time to plan would be helpful and appreciated, if possible.
