        This question must have been addressed previously, but I haven't been able to find the answer and can't help wondering: what exactly is the treatment that the 21 oz denim receives to delay fading? And is this an IH-specific process, or is it more commonly used in the industry?

          To my knowledge, it's a process Haraki designed and he has no intention of ever sharing the specifics.

              Where can I find a photo(s) of a pair of flagship 21oz  jeans that have been washed dozens of times/super vintage fade? Is there a gallery or a sub on here for washed out fades?

                    I’m hoping that this “Hall of Fades” can grow to include lots more pairs and lots more denims, but first things first with so much going on…

                      If Photobucket cooperates, here are a couple of my old pair.
                      @Chris:

                      I recently washed my pair and thought I'd take a couple of pictures when they were fresh out of the dryer.

                            @Chris @neph93 nice photos from the both of you. I sit here with my pair of 555-01 hanging on a hook on my wall. I love that I am taking part in the Indigo Invitational but hooo boy seeing your all's photos makes me miss wearing my pair.

                                How about an alteration to the IHJ-80 black mountain parka to add hip side zips resembling moto jacket?

                                  Came across these photos in the r/rawdenim Reddit page. OP stated it is the 21oz flagship denim, 7 years old. Anyone else on here have IH that is this shredded and light in color?

                                      I'm wondering the same…the post said "lots of wrecks" not sure that that means?

                                            @Giles had a pair of IH-634S in 21oz that are that kind of colour. They used to hang on the wall at SENY, maybe they still do. I think he has an early version of the type III in that kind of state too.
