@Filthy:
@Giles I know you said Haraki won't/can't do anything heavier than 25 oz. But I was thinking today about the double rope dyed indigo debate, and like what about 25 oz double rope dyed indigo left hand twill? It kind of has a nice ring to it, to me at least.
Or the 19oz LHT in Indigo Indigo ( absolute delicious denim :)))

I’d love an IH denim bottom specifically aimed at motorcycle use that provides pockets for protective pads at hips and knees. The Shinayaka stretch denim would be an ideal fabric for comfort during long hours on the bike. If abrasion resistant fibers could be included (kevlar, …), all the better.
I currently ride with a pair of Revit jeans and substituting those for an IH pair would be perfect. The fades from motorcycling activity would be epic and presumably different than those due to physical labor activities (or office duties).
Those pics are from a recent trip and the Revit denim fades are nothing great. I can just imagine what those bottoms would look like if the were IH. I would hope that a motorcycle jean would interest the japanese market too, maybe more so than the non-Japan customer base.
I understand that making samples is risky due to the very high initial cost…I would be willing to pay up front for the first sample if made in my size. Has IH had this discussion before given its strong slant towards the motorcycle community in Japan?

Just thought I’d throw this idea in the ring again:[emoji362][emoji189]
CPO, made of the 14oz. Wakayama Sweatshirt fabric, with twill pockets, placket, collar and cuff linings in black and navy blue, with IH copper snaps [emoji41]

I'm still hoping and praying for the IHSH-64 fabric CPO

That’s great news! Thanks [emoji120] [emoji41][emoji106]

I'd love to see the melton wool cpo in black come back around.

@adam313:
UHR
And for those of you who have been paying attention, this is not instead of, but as well as, the new raw denim H is working on…
Just soaked and now wearing my new 634SR, the same type of denim that is now being remade! These have turned out to be a prescient purchase. The 23oz is still the GOAT. The most crispy. The most rugged. Soaking these for hours and switching the water brought back good memories of better days. Thanks IH! The new UHR denim is gonna be great.

I still wish I had a 21 oz IH one of these.

@Filthy during the first forum happy hour Giles discussed IH improving its sustainability, and part of that was making small items from scraps of denim. Add the coin pouch to the list of cool things that could be made.
