          Such amazing pictures! Thanks for all of these. Seeing the indigo as it comes it is so cool and those are some very well maintained machines it looks like. So thankful to be able to follow along with the trip through all the pics!!

              @Giles Can you tell us what weight you are weaving the new natural Indigo denim? I know you ran it in 17oz before, but any other weights previous?

                The indigo/persimmon denim is beautiful! Please tell me you’re going to make something from it (Type III - Non Modified- for us shorter folks).

                I loved that so much. Haraki, not so much. I'm considering starting a new brand to make shit out of stuff like this 🙂

                I actually thought it would suit a Type II more than a III.....But hey, what do I know.....

                Why did he not liked it?

                    Looks like an awesome trip and I loved the behind-the-scenes stuff--truly denim nerd heaven. Also really shows the company as a family more than any other brand I can think of and that makes me very glad to be a customer.

                    That indigo/persimmon...I think I drooled over it for at least a few minutes lol

                      Thanks for sharing @Giles ! Being able to visit factories like that sounds like a great vacay, if you ask me.

                      Hoping Haraki changes his mind on the kimono fabric. I get it though, it would have fit under TW than it would IH.

                      I'm as ugly as you

                              He liked it, but has other priorities
