      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….

              Two cuts…

              No chance of one of them being 555?

                  I'd have been surprised… Are there any plans for new iterations of the 555 cut?

                    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.

                                  I would speculate that we'll see the two most popular fits- so you'll get the 634-XHSII and the 666-XHSII.  But that, and the model names, are strictly a guess on my part…

                                    Seems likely.

                                      I dunno I could see a 777 double indigo for the Asian market. Bet they would be all over that in South East Asia.

                                        Not necessarily, as the cuts are being driven by a retailer…...

                                            Short answer.  I could.

                                            Long answer.  Any collaboration we do, I leave it up to the retailer to decide how they want to announce it.  If I went ahead and told you any more than I already have, without due deference to the co-collaborator, I would expect, and deserve a very uncomfortable phone or email exchange soon after I placed my foot in my mouth.  Sometimes the retailer says, say what you want when you want, then I do, but I always let them drive it, after all it's their gig not ours….
