      @jothishan:

      What is the difference between UHR and XHS?

      They are very different. UHR stands for Ultra Heavy Raw.

      It is loomstate, so no post weave processing, a lighter indigo, fades very quickly, and will shrink quite a lot. Must be soaked and washed before wearing. It is also a very tight weave.

      I was wearing my IH-888-UHR yesterday in fact:

      I like UHR so much I squirreled a couple pair away-I'll get to them someday

      Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
      Well, I have others.

        Is there going to be an 888 UHR this time around? I’ve been really wanting to get into some 888XHS but I’ve never experienced the UHR and I’m thinking about waiting for it…

          555 UHR Would definitely check a lot of boxes for me.

                Is the 16oz slubby denim going to be a looser weave like the 16oz Vintage was?

                Looks loose

                Excellent. Sounds like a great warm weather option.

                  About 11 years ago, I asked Haraki to make a denim pullover, the response I got was less than enthusiastic.  About 6 years ago, I tried again.  Same response.

                  I sent him a mail yesterday, saying, I'm going to ask one more time, and if you say no, I will never ask you again.

                  He said yes, and is working on a design…..

                  BOOM

                        I'm wondering if it will be more of a WWII derived piece or a whole different animal. My problem with popovers is that they tend to be really blousy. Coupling that with a heavier fabric and typically narrow IH shoulder/ medium length could make for a very unfortunate bell shape. I'm curious to see what the Boss comes up with.

                            Yep

                            I have pic somewhere in one of my Mr Freedamn books, that is what piqued my interest all those years ago.  I'll asee if I can find it

                                I’ve seen some with Western pockets and yokes,which I’ve thought were interesting.

                                    This is a screenshot from the page for the Dixon Rand popover shirt. It wouldn’t let me save the images. Western yoke is in the back.

                                        I brought this up many years ago here. But one of my favorite shirts I ever owned from like 20 years ago was a military style pullover shirt that was made of this stubby material. It had a a button closure diamond shaped pockets (like an IH western), and a collar.

                                        I'd love a shirt like this that had snaps and was made from the same material as the IHSH-64 😄

                                        Either this, or some kind of Buffalo plaid UHF (besides red or green) would be awesome.

                                          I can kinda appreciate what they’re going after but that Dixxon shirt is painful to look at.
