      It's as much to do with the double twisted weft as it is weaving tension. And yes, the 25 does use a heavier warp and weft than the 21oz.

        @Dbol I think that's the IHSH-65, pale blue mock twist chambray. https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/post/1747

          Curious of the intent/proper use of the double button hole seen on the collars of the M-65?

            How fast does the CPO 18oz vintage denim sell out when restocked?

            I recently discovered the 18 ounce vintage selvedge denim CPO shirt and realized I'm very late to the party as it's sold out and past reviews of threads seems like it sells out quickly.

            How quickly do I need to move to order a popular size like XL when the restock notice Email comes? Is this a matter of hours, days, weeks?

              @backpackerx it depends on the item. But high demand items can sell out in minutes.

              That 292 18oz Vintage CPO is continuous production. If I had to put a guess on that restock, I’d say you have a few days to a couple weeks before XL sells out. But it very possibly could sell out faster too! If it’s something you’re really wanting, best to be ready when it drops and snag one straight away.

                  @backpackerx i'd like to add that there are plenty of retailers which often still have stock while UK is sold out.

                    @backpackerx 7.21 seconds 😉 The IB19oz CPO when it comes back will be seconds but hard to tell with this one. When the wabash CPO came back in I expected it to go within minutes but they are still available in most sizes.

                      @backpackerx There are no rules, norms or expectations. If there were, we would order the correct amount every time, so that we never ran out. Unfortunately retail is not a science and there are dozens of variables, many of them completely unpredictable. If Trump slaps tariffs on Japanese goods, then that'll suppress demand a lot.

                      If it is something you must have, then complete the request for restock notification and buy it the minute you get the email.

                            @flannel-slut As far as I know, these holes are intended for the cord of the hood to pass through when it is unfolded, in order to create a tighter connection between the hood and the collar.
                            Hope it makes sense, cheers.

                              May I ask another question :)? What makes denim "vintage denim" as in the 18oz CPO?

                                @flannel-slut traditionally to attach a parka hood to the jacket, which we have never sold but I presume Haraki kept them in the design to be more accurate

                                  …. Reminiscent of denim from the early to mid-1900s, this fabric is woven for us at the renowned Shinya Mill, celebrated for its authentic vintage-style denim. Woven under relatively low tension, our 18oz selvedge is looser and softer than some of our more modern weaves, resulting in a pair of very breathable heavyweight jeans that require minimal break-in time. Due to the slightly more irregular weave, you can expect character-filled vertical fading that emphasises the textured nature of the denim.
