      @Giles what should we expect for "continuous" items during the sulpher dyed phase out? I'm currently wearing the 293 OD. Will the next run, or further into the future runs, be dyed using a different technique?

      @Giles:

      @mclaincausey:

      [is that MB the same as the or is that something else? I love the way the shirt looks in person so I am curious.

      To date, all of our black overdyed garments are basically just indigo garments with a black sulphur dye dunking post-construction. The only current exception to this is Mad Black jeans which have been overdyed using 2 different techniques and those are secret.

      In the future, as we phase out sulphur dyes, you will see more experimentation.  For instance, SS22 includes some reactive overdyeing which as a process, is much better for the environment than sulphur dyeing.

          Thank you @Jett129 and @Giles

          I love the matte black and it looks like the mad black could have a similar sheen to it even if a different technique. At least I hope it does. Either way, kudos for ditching sulphur.

          Think it, be it.

              Luckily (well no luck at all, Haraki being the man he is), we are using arguably the best and most efficient sulphur dyeing factory in Japan, so whilst many have closed, ours has not.  I think we could continue to sulphur dye for years, the real question, is should we?  We will test out alternatives and switch as soon as we possibly can once we feel we have a viable route forward.  However, expect the price of sulphur dyed garments to increase in the meantime as our during factory makes more and more concerted efforts to minimise the environmental impact of using sulphur.

                  Probably the most underrated fit, but its my favorite because it's so comfortable.

                                    Haha now I see what you mean. I too presumed he is my son but didn’t wanna question the wife too hard, she gets defensive.
