Good point, they will have indigo arcs.  Good job you noticed that…..First post updated.....

@Giles:

(or USD370  :D)

you wanna go the hard way by all means, don't you…

Brand new cut in the denim I always wanted.  I might have to do this.

@Giles I'm assuming this is the last of the 21/23oz fabric?

[Giles]

We have in total enough for about 350/400 pairs left.  Because we have to make many more jeans than pre-orders to allow us to juggle actual orders versus pre-orders, we will make a parallel run of IH-888-UHR (same jean, different patch), which will use a few more yards of denim up….

BTW - UHR in Arizona........ :o :o :o

lol…I know! Hey if the Pronto guys can wear the heavy denims in their climate than I should be able to do it in AZ right???

IIRC you have said (or someone at IHUK) that this is extremely dense and unbreathable denim?

Jesus wept - this is tempting…

The 25oz breathes like linen by comparison.

there is almost no way to justify this to my better half… almost.

[Jordonf9]

Same denim as the 10th anniversary 21/23?

[Giles]

Similar - same yarns, different loom….

[Jordonf9]

So looser weave? Just wondering as the 21/23 was a pretty stiff denim.

[Giles]

Maybe a tad…....

The webpage will go live just as soon as I have a time.  Have to run a mission to LHR at sparrows in the morning to pick up @twin and twin Bobby who are staying with us for a few days…....I expect to be otherwise engaged some of the time....

Have fun with that madness… One of my least favorite airports EVER (Next to only Clark International Airport; Angeles City, Philippines)

Shit happens….....But honestly, I think you'd regret it.....

TRUST IN THE JOURNEY!

If you're married, you can surely survive a pair of jeans…

[Matty123]

These will ship out in October…. hmm I've got some figuring to do

It's also probably the best denim IH have ever made (at least out of the ones I've tried) . Really spectacular stuff.

G & Megatron,

1. Please use a heavy fabric (standard in other IH jeans) for the pocket bags. The herringbone fabric used in the UHR Beatle Busters was too thin and fragile in my opinion, especially for such an abrasive and stubborn denim like the UHR.

2. Will hemming be free?

3. Will the 888-UHR cost the same or more?

Thanks!
