      Whoa. I never thought I'd see these go away.  😞

      End of an era! Fortunately the vintage 18oz is seriously good stuff.

        We had to decide whether to continue with 2 18oz denims or cut one out.  I decided that sticking with one was a more sensible approach….

          Does this mean the SH-177 and SH-178 18oz CPO's will switch to the 18oz vintage in the future too?

            I have enough for about 200 somethings of the original (IH-666S) 18oz denim, the IHSH-177 and 178 are safe for a while…...

              I agree, I have a pair myself.

              Makes sense. Does this mean that this denim is going away completely then? Not just in this cut?

                  That's sad.One of the most beautiful denims out there.Would it be a good idea to run 888?Does it mean after retiring 21/23 and 18oz IH goes fully sanforized ?

                        Damn, now this makes two discontinued denims I'll need to pick up that I don't have (18 and 21/23)

                              The UHR (21/23 oz) and the raw endangered 18 oz are amongst the most beautiful denims I've encountered. Jus' sayin'…

                                If you had to pick one between the two?

                                  A difficult decision, probably the UHR but I slightly prefer heavier denim. Go for the one with the least numbers in stock… then for the other one 8).

                                    Smart man.  Looks like I have time to sort this one out.  There are still large quantities of the 555 18oz and 888 21/23oz left in my size.  More of the 555 though so I'll cop the 888 21/23 first.

                                      I always intended to pick up a pair of these and always assumed I had plenty of time considering this is Giles's favorite denim and cut. Totally out of the question to buy a pair in the near future, so I might have to make my peace with these being one of the ones that got away.  😞

                                      On a brighter note, I'm ecstatic that the weather has cooled off enough to take my 666-XHS out of hibernation (along with my SEXIHXLSXA13's).  😛

                                        I haven't had a chance to see this fabric in person, is it noticeably slubbier than the new UHR or 18oz vintage? Not expecting PBJ-level slub, I just don't want to have two 18oz pairs that are too similar.

                                        Works on my machine.

                                          It is very different from the 18oz Vintage…..
