My intention was more like a pooling of ideas of your overall favourites. But you're right @goosehd, here are my criteria:
- Versatility: Can be worn (with some layering) most of the year.
- Fabric: Rugged but comfy, makes me want to wear it all the time.
- Fade Potential: Can and will fade (vintage or high contrast, doesn't matter).
- Length: Rather short or cropped.
- Style: Timeless, nothing fashionable (but that counts for all IG gear I suppose).
PS: The sleeves, especially the forearms, must be quite roomy.

Thank you sweeties!

@ShopatIronHeart Just curious; are there any indigo/black jean releases in the pipeline for the near future? In any fit or weight?
-
@Go-For-Chill 14oz indigo/black in production in all cuts, should be here soon hopefully
-
Same here. If either of those get released in a 1955 it'll be a guaranteed cop for me. I might be talked into a 634 or 888 as well.
-
@Go-For-Chill I think the fans of the 1955 cut would loose their denim minds if that cut ever came out in that denim. I did that when it ,originally,came out in the 555 cut.
-
@Jett129 Agreed. I think it will be a while before we see it, but one can always hope. Maybe the more we talk about it...

Why don’t all my pocket linings have print?
I tried searching for the answer but couldn’t find anything. I noticed I have a few pairs that have a label/print on the pocket lining and some don’t. Is there a reason some do and some don’t?
-
@Duffputter Wondered the same thing today. 555 21 doesn't have any. Others I have seen do.
-
@Duffputter a lot of inconsistencies have crept in over the years. Something like this will be due to @Giles not directly specifying it when he made the first run of these jeans (same reason some jeans have flashers, and some do not) as he assumed that details like this would be carried over, but the Japanese followed the spec sheet to the tee. Prints in shirts, for example, Works decided to stop doing to try to keep RRP lower as costs rose, but we asked them to go back to doing it, so some shirts do and some shirts do not. etc etc

Hello dear friends,
I am in market for new pair of heavy denim IH, and can’t decide between IH-888-UHR – 21/23OZ vs 888 25OZ.
I checked out both but I couldn’t find any significant differences except the weight, I will appreciate some help can make it easier for me to choose one.
Thanks in advance! -
I would suggest reading the product threads for jeans of these denims. They’re VERY different.
Briefly: UHR is raw and will shrink significantly and mold to your body with first soak/wash. UHR is also a very dense weave, and has a crispy texture. XHS is one-washed. There’s still a little shrink in there, but not like UHR. 25oz XHS is very heavy denim, but IMO softens very nicely, and if you put in the time, eventually it can be the softest heaviest denim sweatpants you’ll ever own.
