Here’s one…In light of the popularity of the recent Indigo Fade Competition,there’s a lot of talk about “CONTEST JEANS”,by contestants or by manufacturers who are making special edition  jeans for contestants to wear In the contest. Early on in my IH days there was a Denim World Championship for which IH was making a special limited edition jean. I ordered a pair because I thought they were really cool,not thinking I might be depriving a genuine contestant of the opportunity to have them. When I voiced my concern I was told not to worry. Nonetheless Contest/Competition jeans might need a space in the glossary.

This is splendid work, sir!  When I first opened it, I thought there might be 20 entries in there, but I've been going through the list for a few minutes now and I'm still on the Bs

[neph93]

I'll be writing updates based on what has been mentioned here in the next week or two. Last chance to throw more terms into the ring.

I was reading something online about IH and they used the term, "grand indigo dyed". I've not seen this term before and a google search shows some jeans with this descriptior, but no explanation can be found.
