IH-526V-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Type III Vest - Indigo

[Allisnoise]

I think this my favorite Iron Heart score so far!

It’s a size small (the last one left), so I was worried it would fit too tight, but the fit is damn near perfect!

Just in time for summer in the swamps of Louisiana…  ::)

Nothing like a bit of heat, sweat and dirt to aid the break in. Great score.

@daltmeyer  keep it up. I have the 18oz IHV-21 which is a stuff denim that is also bonded with red felt. Took a long time to break in and I have to admit I didn’t commit to it. Now after owning it two years it’s softening and I love it. The point being, do the work now, enjoy the fruits of your labour sooner

@Giles:

I guess we made about 80….

If there will be another production run in the future you should include a black overdyed version.

I'd buy one immediately… 

[Giles]

We will likely do an indigo/black 25oz version….

Made out of the same denim as these:

(I asked retailers for orders today).

You know what to do with the info don't you @theshigster ( @Kentaurus ) 

[neph93]

Black 25oz you say? Well played, sir. Well played.

I think I said indigo/black

Count me in for a 3x please. Edit: also a matching pair of 888s.

I don’t think I could resist that,along with the jeans. The Black and Blue combo.

I did let @Jim know, that I'd like to order…

I'm sure someone will point out if I'm being an idiot, which is highly likely!

I'm unsure what indigo/black from the same denim actually means.

Does it mean there's some overdying, or that it's going to be indigo warp with black weft?

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Indigo warp, black weft. I'm only speculating, but it could possibly end up looking like this: https://www.heddels.com/2017/06/fade-friday-3sixteen-shadow-selvedge-3-years-unknown-washes/

Edit: except the fade would be predominantly more black because of the reactive dye they are using.
