Shades of IH Denim

[SKT]

Thanks Reuben. Agree on the left hand twill. I hope it sticks around because it’s pretty awesome stuff. Our kids are 10 and 7. My sons’s grade sent 11 kids home to quarantine after ONE day!  The positive kid was not in his class but the spectre is there constantly. Good luck to your kids at school and hope everybody stays healthy.

Cool thread @SKT!! Way to give your neighbors something to talk about too!!

Cool to see them side by side. Would be great to see this with not only XHS but also OD, SST, and Slub. the ih indigo palette

This would be cool to see, even if it was made of hem scraps or something

@zhivago I’m sure the neighbors were scratching their heads

I know no one asked for a multi-crotch shot but here it is anyway

You can really see the 142 beginning to fade in this shot.

Also, the reason I went down this road in the first place was because I had all my denim out to re-hang on new denim hangers. They had been folded (bad idea) on traditional hangers. That practice was making some pretty irreparable creases, especially in the 142’s. Lesson learned.

@SKT:

but will there be more cuts available down the road in the left hand twill?

Not sure about the 21.  But we are doing all the core cuts in the 19…..

Great pics @SKT , I need to expand my collection, love the different looks

[SKT]

@Joberwocky Thanks man! I’d like to add some whip cord cargos and a pair of XHS. That would do it for me. I wish that my collection had a little more diversity when it comes to age and fade intensity. Maybe in a year I’ll do another shot of all and compare. Incentive to wear more!

I hear ya, being pretty new to the IH game myself, none of my fades are crazy yet, though I do have some XHS and bibs, the latter of which are conspicuously missing from your array.  The different feel and details of each fabric are really cool.  I'm gonna have some hernia surgery coming up soon (not excited) so maybe I, too, will take to posting some photos of my collection.

@Joberwocky Good luck getting fixed up and while you’re mending snap some photos of the collection!

You are clearly missing a pair of black denim (or you just don’t show them here).

[Joberwocky]

At the very least, an excuse to go snag some.  I'd love some mad black

@Filthy Crotch shot! Love those shades of blue

@Dmart @Joberwocky  I definitely need some black denim and it’s on the list. I’ve actually never owned a pair of black jeans so overdue. And the last pair of bibs I owned were probably some Key overalls I got from my farmer grandfather. I loved those things and his always took an awful beating and looked incredible. Farms are one of the best ways to beat up clothes
