after 6 years

... it does fade

[beef_bonanza]

@Oaktavia and @Heavy_blue thabks dudes
@endo somehow it does. But it required years and years and loads of washes. And still the „fades“ just seem to happen on the very outer surface of the material

great work @beef_bonanza

[Oaktavia]

Finally got this patch on! I placed it to the side a bit so the collar doesn't cover it up.

@Oaktavia cool patch man

[polydactyl]

Sheer terror

[Choko]

I’ve had this on my list for a long ass time but I finally had to pull the trigger because it was about to sell out and I didn’t want to wait a year. It’s perfect on the bike. Can’t wait for it to soften up even more

[HeavyGenes]

Pulled it out today.

good evening dears, I can't wait to add some nice patches... I'll need some of your advice

[Choko]

Still one of my favorites

This denim may be discontinued. We are having big issues with the production, and I am in talks with Japan about it currently. It would be a major bummer, but - we are talking specifically about the Superblack Non-Selvedge.

Sadly this is now confirmed. The mill was forced to move the production to a different type of loom, and it created visual bumps in the fabric as a result. Haraki is not willing, rightly so, to make what he considered B/C grade denim, so we have come to the agreement to discontinue making this denim. There are still some production runs in the works, and we will hopefully still release those as planned with the A grade denim, but if that changes we will let you know.

Moving forward, as we have done with jeans already, the IH-9526PJ, IH-9527J and IH-9526V will be superseded by the Superblack Selvedege Denim. Accessories will move across too, at some point, but we have more flexibility to make these from B grade denim as we need smaller sections.

@Oaktavia your pictures of this on ig are too good not to share here if you want. Agree with @Raisinoux who I think made the comment there to over dye it indigo.

[tody]

@pechelman he already did, over in the 'evolution' thread.

[Raisinoux]

@pechelman that would be pretty awesome, some kind of indigo silver X black

[Oaktavia]

Overdyeing it indigo would be pretty cool. I would definitely want to step up my dye and purchase higher quality indigo. But I am not sure yet if I want to do that. First, I will keep sun bleaching it to see how light it will go.

@Luijim78 it’s perfect just like that, I have the jacket version and it’s my favourite piece, simple sturdy and minimalist, goes with everything I own!

[Luijim78]

@ÆRϺΔΚ yes I agree, I also have the type 3 of the same fabric and I love them both, thanks mate
