IH-634XHS and IH-666XHS - VMC 25 Year Anniversary's

It is harder and more rigid, does not have the supreme softness of the 21oz….
Fabulous, I LOOOOVE the rigid stuff.

GB, we learnt, when doing your one-off pair, that ODing the 21/23oz denim was not commercially feasible….......
Giles, I tried never to mention that you guys had had the generosity and kind heart to OD one of my SR's because I did not want to start a long discussion! But now that you broke the omerta, I can feel free to say that these are the fuckingest baddest pants I own.

Giles had posted about it before but I did not know it was you! Pics pls

Maybe this has come up here before and I missed it, but this was a quote from Kiya over on sufu in the Self Edge thread a few weeks ago, while he was talking about the upcoming SE/Leather Soul collab boot:
"New Iron Heart jean will be releasing at the same time designed by SE and LS. A new heavier denim that's sanforized, super dark indigo. This will probably be the longest lasting IH denim to date and will age closer to what a unsanforized denim ages like due to it's short oxidation period between dips but high dip count."
Assume this is the same 25oz. denim? Just thought it worth quoting here for anyone interested in the denim.
-
Correct me if I'm wrong but I remember reading that Kiya posting a picture on his twitter of a 23 oz denim - and mentioning it will be in the next IH collab. I'm assuming that is the denim that will be used on the above mentioned jeans?
-
Holy rap, we're going to face a glut of super heavy IH jeans.
-
Kiya was talking about a 23oz we have made specially for him. It is not the same stuff as he 25oz
Man, there are so many new fabrics and cuts coming out…hard to overview it (and even harder to resist)

+1

Wow, dunno how I jus found out about these, insanity. Wish I had waited instead of coppin the 666od's… Well not really. These are gonna straight up leave blisters on the back knee and hips lol.
-
You say that like it's a bad thing…
-
Lol, no way!

i'm really excited to see & handle the denim on these. since Iron Heart -in my humble opinion- tend to actually under report on the weight of their textiles, these are going to give heavy duty a new meaning.
**as a side if you ever get to go to a meet-up ask G about the nice humble guy that does all the textiles for Iron Heart. really no point here but i'm a lateral thinker so it pooped in my head when we meet briefly and he was the nicest guy . . . very random but i can't delete it
here is G$ response:

G and I discussed these monday, really looking forward to them…Wish he had brought a fabric sample.
