      I was wondering, how is the black over dye process different from the indigo black process. The black ODs fade to a sort of washed out grayish blue, while tie IB seem to turn all the way back to blue…how is each applied that they would fade away in such different ways?

        @Mizmazzle The way I understand it is that an indigo x black fabric has an indigo dyed warp yarn and a black dyed weft yarn. These two yarns are then woven together on the loom. The over dying process happens after the fabric is already woven together. So in this case I think they take a "regular" blue denim with and indigo warp and a white or off white weft and dip it in a black dye.

            I don't know if anyone has asked this question before but are all the Iron Heart buttons all made of brass and coated in another metal like copper or aluminium oxide as the silver ones underneath look brassy with wear?

                Does hickory denim, by definition, only use indigo as the dye colour, or is ‘black hickory’ a thing? Or any other colour, for that matter….[emoji848]

                        Who is selling it, @Daniel San ? A German, or are you seeing a Japanese for sale listing on the German eBay?

                                  They should not have been sold, they were giveaways, primarily for Japanese retailers.  No idea how many were made.

                                    Just noticed that, since the forum change, I’m back to being “Raw and unwashed”. My post count is over 600. Any way to get me “upgraded” to my rightful status 😂?

                                      @jerkules i had the same issue. You can change it in your profile. I had to post at least once that the groups have been updated.

                                          Question…when an IH item goes into production, does that include the creation of the fabric as well? For example, sometimes someone will ask when a restock will be, and it’s said it just went to production so could be months until ready. I’m curious what the steps of “production” are?

                                          In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...
