      A 21 oz yard of denim will shrink when washed to a density of 23 oz but a smaller area. To have one yard of 23 oz material you will need to start with a bigger 21 oz of material in the beginning as its density increases as it shrinks.

      I believe @motojobobo and @Jett129 are both correct, if I’m reading their responses correctly.

      Hopefully my response makes some sense.

      The journey is the objective.

        I was just curious about how the fabric feels heavier with more of a drape on the OD compared to the SBG.

          @Mizmazzle So you’re making the observation that OD is denser in feel and appearance than SBG, and you’re wondering if anyone else has noticed it?

                It was just supposed to be a fun topic to discuss if others feel the weight of the OD fabric feels heavier than the SBG. My first SBG so I was curious.

                      I have a pair of the OG 777XHS and a pair of the Pronto XHS jeans,and I’d swear that the Prontos are different,ever so slightly lighter than the OG 777s. Who knows what happened the day that each of these denims was woven. It’s like you have 2 kids,exact same DNA,but different as night and day,and both equally great in their own right.

                        My understanding of the 21/23 oz UHR beefing up is that it occurs on fabric on a ‘per area’ basis. Since your pair of jeans probably shrunk after the wash, I doubt they would become heavier jeans.

                        @motojobobo is correct and that is also why the anny Ultra Heavy Flannel is heavier per square yard. Overdyeing also causes shrinkage, so more cotton is in a square yard.....

                                    …that picture brings up a really good question. Laura likes to have a mimosa for breakfast once in a while. Maybe I’ve been misunderstanding her and she’s been asking for a Momoa.
