IHJ-121-IND - 12oz Indigo Whipcord Type III - Indigo
-
@Mindfulbiscuit I would not expect high contrast fades, no. Though this is indigo like our jeans, the amount of indigo required to dye whipcord is very high, so it will fade much slower than jeans

@Mindfulbiscuit Here's a picture of what @Nik was able to do with his N1 out of the same material:

@tody nice I’m thinking about fading this one

If you want high contrast on indigo whipcord you’d need to accelerate the process. You could do the Filthy method of starching the creases. Or do the old silly APC ocean wash at a sandy beach so you can rub the sand into the areas you want faded. But as Alex says if worn naturally it is slow going. I didn’t notice any real fading of my N1 after years of wear until I washed it. What’s nice about this fabric is that it is soft and strong. This type 3 will be really comfortable to wear and will look a bit more dressed up. I saw the sample and it is a stand out piece. Last bit of indigo whipcord too.

@Nik thanks

@Nik Greetings.. Just wondering that does it bleeds like the other indigo dyed jackets? (as I was thinking to layer this with IH-634S-WH)
TIA -
I didn’t notice any indigo transfer into lighter fabrics but the N1 is lined so there are less points of contact. You might get a bit but it won’t be as much as denim.

@tody that jacket in that bag… shiiiiiiiiiit
-
@tody good catch
-
@tody made for you!

@mapotofu We are same size and I am waiting mine excitedly too. Your ID is interesting.
Mapo tofu is my fav and go-to dish whilst back in Singapore.

I never thought that I could pull of Type III.
But whipcord gave me a chance and it looks alright
Proper dressed up.

@oblivion-sila Looks great!
I got mine as well and I can only wear a tee shirt underneath. Not sure if I should size up or not.
