@Giles:

Sure that's all?  How many kids have you got?

I drink, eat and buy to forget. Also, I get taken advantage of, often. I'm a nice girl really.

Latest update on the Yenim.

We only got 26 good pairs of IH-634S-PD out of the run.  Absolute tragedy  :o :o.

They will all be sold from IHUK website, I think it may well be a bit of a bun fight.

The IH-666S-PD faired a lot better.

They'll be here in a couple of weeks.

You know the score….

Complete the form if you want an email when they hit…

:o

is 666s-PD going to be IHUK exclusive too? i wonder why the 634 would came out so differently

looks like the yenim might end up a one-time-only thing (unless haraki figures out how to do it without loom disaster).

[Giles]

It's a one off - we aint going through that (very expensive) pain again…..

IH-666S-PD will be available at Self Edge, VMC and Pronto....

We made the 666 first and then tried to make the 634's from the remaining fabric.......Just was not a lot of good stuff left.....

I'm super intrigued by these, but with three new pairs of IH in rotation already I'm going to have to take a ring side seat to the bun fight and regret it for the next 5 years 

My bet is that they are sold within a couple of days.

[wavehead]

you mentioned the yenim would be washed and somewhere said the warp was from the 18oz - is it raw/loomstate?

when does is it look like the yenim will be for sale, a week? 2 weeks? hope i have the $$ for it and the measurements work.

[Giles]

Its loom state before the wash…....We should have the jeans here in a week or so then they'll be online within a day or so.....

[ChrisJ]

Any word on when the Vintage 18oz 634 and 666 will be in ?

[Giles]

Probably early Feb…..

[GingerMagician]

Yenim 666 arrived yet @Giles ?

[Giles]

Nope…......Further QC issues, I think we'll see far fewer than even my pessimistic guess suggested.....

[_streetshark]

Do you know what exactly the issues are @Giles? What will happen to the faulty ones? If they were still wearable I'd be willing to buy a pair for a discounted price.

[A Former User]

Make very expensive coasters out of the flawed pairs/denim!

[GingerMagician]

Thanks @Giles - a shame things didn't really work out as planned with the yenim, but trying new ideas is what separates you guys from the rest.

Liking that idea @adam313

That's shite news G… Suz to hear...

Where does the term 'yenim' come from?

It's a pun. The denim uses the same tree pulp as is used to make money.

I know but what's the connection? (I'm not a native English speaker; I might be missing some slang reference…)

Yen is the name of the Japanese form of currency.
