Dont think we ever tried a 25oz Type III, it's that challenging, H just says no.
The original Johnny Cash was conceived to be made out of 21oz non-fade superblack. We made a sample (the seriously skilled seamstresses work in sampling), but just could not make it to a decent, predictable quality in production. We eventually released it is 16oz...

Curious if there's some more info floating around, but I noticed with all my pairs of denim, the indigos are always easier to break in/soften up faster than any of my black pairs. Is it because of the dyes themselves or is it a different process that might cause this? Sorry for what might be a rookie type question, just always wondered why that might be or if I'm crazy to think that lol. Thanks!

@Giles Got ya! Yeah, do you guys make a black pair with an undyed weft? From what I can find, (at least the 555 cut) it seems like all the black denim jeans have some sort of dyed weft from what I could tell. Could be just plain missing it though

@Ed-Rekuc Overdyed black might be an option, although this is technically not a black denim. SBG gets some great fades, although warp and weft are both dyed, even if it is different techniques

@Tago-Mago True! I do have a pair of Indigo ODs which did break in easier. I had to rephrase my thought process after writing because I though the SBGs were a undyed weft but then had to re-read the techniques. I guess the only true comparison I had was the Indigo/Indigo vs Indigo/Black that I have, where the IBs were slightly more (for lack of better terms) "Crunchy", but that could just be me. Thanks for the help though guys, I like reading about all the different types products/techniques when I can!
- I was gonna go for either a bright blue/teal or a smoke grey
