IHSH-45 - 12oz Raw Indigo Selvedge Denim Western Shirt

[yen]

What's the diff between 27 denim & 33 denim when they are both raw.  I thought they were both the same except one was raw and one was washed.

[dasilva54]

thank you Monday, just needed someone with a little more knowledge to confirm that for me. 

I think I'm going to have to snatch this one up

[madmonday]

no more knowledge buddy, i just followed the link & the handy chart with the denim details

i sent G$ a million pms today trying to understand the differences in the denim 

it was really ugly

We utilise 2 different 12oz denims for our denim shirts.

China warp/Zimbabwe weft: IHSH-27
Zimbabwe warp and weft: IHSH-33 and 45

The Zimbawe denim fades with quite a lot of vertical fading, very like a vintage denim
The Chinese/Zimbabwe denim fades a little slower and with more uniformity

Just stumbled across this thread (missed a lot on holidays, it seems). Interesting, i didn't know about the different denims of the 33 and 27, I always thought they only differ in cut and raw/washed status. I also was wondering why my 27 doesn't seem to fade as nice as people's 33 - now i know the reason.

[Giles]

Nice is subjective, I love the fading of the 27

[Max Power]

Yeah, i do, too. it just takes longer than i thought, after all I've been wearing it for four months now, at least 2 days a week and still only the cuff shows a little colour.

[Giles]

Well you are in trouble then.  DC4 took none…....

for some reason I find this very interesting… thanks for the insight G

For those of you that have extensive wear experience now with these raw shirts.. how much bleeding is there on undershirts/pants? I had the 33 but never had a chance to wear it and now i find myself totally lusting after the 45 (picturing myself wearing this with the khaki 701s G sent me) but worried that they'd bleed all over everything haha

[Beatle]

not that much bleeding on the inside, so ur good

[Seul]

Something bled fiercely on my 801s and it can only be either IHSH-27 or IHSH-34…  :-\

[jacoavlu]

Did you wear the 27 damp?
I haven't had any signif bleeding/transfer

[Seul]

No…

[FurattoHeddo]

^Could very well be indigo transfer from the inside of your belt (though it seems a bit too much to be the case)?
