Samples - New Products We Are Working On

[Giles]

No.  There is one iteration of UHR.  It is this:

We have woven enough for 500 pairs jeans.  I just told H to triple it.

No other raw denim else exists at the moment.  But Haraki has been working on a new concept of raw denim for a couple of years now.  He is unhappy with everything that has come off the loom.  So he is going to take the principles of UHR and apply the concepts he has developed for the new raw and come up with something that after washing/shrinkage will be about 21oz.

It will not be UHR and it will not replace it.

@Giles:

Yep, it is the UHR (AKA 21/23).

Fair to say, my favourite IH denim tends to be the one I am wearing the most at any given time. That being said UHR is so much fun. A real denim head's denim, temperamental, difficult and very, very beautiful. Like my wife.

Oh okay. I think I know what you mean. Thanks

Might be the light of the photo, but that UHR looks like it starts out a brighter blue than the other denims? Looks great

[Giles]

It does, but not as much as the photo suggests….

sample size 30/31 maybe

[Giles]

Cut?  888, 666 and 555 are already spoken for.  The new way we are doing samples is that we will want them back after about a year to either go into the archives or be RE:LOVEd

would say 666 but given how I feel about my current pair, I feel 634 might be a better option given I'm riding more now and it feels like a perfect fit. sounds amazing to test ride a pair for the archives if you ask me.

[Giles]

So 634.  Tag 31 or 32?

Remember it's a sample so we may screw up actual - which is why we sample….

@Giles 31 please!!  it'll be exciting to see how far a sample pair can vary.. honestly, it'll be a pleasure.

[Giles]

I'll see what we can do

Thanks G. 

[atm23]

@Giles maybe too early but tonal or contrast stitching?

[Giles]

On what?

[atm23]

@giles sorry, the UHR.

[Giles]

I think we will go contrast.  Well, we definitely will for the samples, but we may change our minds for the production runs….

[atm23]

@Giles two versions possibly like the last? I'll just have to wait and see.

[Giles]

Undecided…..

[popvulture]

Tonal would actually be really rad, would love to see that. Bit o' variety.
