IH-888XHSib - 25oz Indigo/Black Sample Thread

Was thinking tea core would be cool because it would do this:

Edit: also the embossed text would probably stay black and crack. Because it is below the surface protecting it from any friction.

@Dion:

A black leather patch (e.g. like on the 9666Z) and navy arcs for the 555XHSib as well have my vote, too. Note that the 21 oz SuperBlack denim is pretty rigid and can stand on its own so I imagine the XHSib is gonna be pretty tough as well. Tougher than the usual XHS.

Yeah it’s def rigid but the UHR is more so IMO.

In production already with natural patches I'm afraid….

It's all good Giles. When is your fictional expected release date? (I need to see if I have to go pawn some of my stuff or not).

[Giles]

I'd reckon 4-6 weeks…

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Thanks. I should be able to come up with the cash by then.

Interested enough judging by this thread.

I imagine them looking close to @Brock 's pair when fully trashed- but with ever darker lowlights and a black inside.

I don’t know why , I have the feeling this denim will not be a Guick fader. Fingers crossed.

Hope to see fade sample from Matty soon

I think the indigo is gonna fade pretty fast imo. The Black won’t fade at all…. but we’ll
See soon. I sent them to indigo proof for hemming. Have em back in about a week.

Considering it’s the regular indigo 25oz denim for the warp. That fades relatively quickly and with high contrast. However, I think the black weft will downplay that. Only time will tell. Matt has to get that pair back and start living in them 24/7 since were all so damn curious. This is like the coolest science denim experiment ever

I’m sorry about the delay guys. Been so busy with work. A coworker had a death in the family so For the last wwwk I’ve been working like a dog. Starting next week I will LIVE in these.
