IHSH-409-IB - 19oz Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo/Black

[CosmoSix5]

This will be an exciting restock

@CosmoSix5 and quite the waiting game…:) like the 292 restock multiplied by 1,000

I know this is the wrong place to ask this due to every single one of you being enablers: Would this be a redundant piece to own seeing as how I have the OD CPO?

@Oaktavia , since you have hands/pants on experience with both pieces, input please?

[Oaktavia]

@VegaS10 Definitely nothing redundant about the 409. Both pieces are 19oz, that is about where the similarities stop. 409 Indigo/black is worlds different than overdyed indigo. Texture is totally different. Color is not the same. No little W on the pocket of the 409, no side selvedge gussets.

@Oaktavia What 19oz OD CPO are we talking about? I have the 19oz IB 409 and the 18oz OD (293), and those are indeed completely different in almost all respects (except that they are both hefty)

@Oaktavia What 19oz OD CPO are we talking about?

There is only one 19oz OD CPO and it is the Self Edge collab that dropped last month.

[Tobi]

@Oaktavia OK, sorry.. slipped my mind due to general unavailability in Europe. I have seen the general excitement though

[Oaktavia]

@Tobi no worries all my dude, all the 409, 293 and SEXIH25CPO are different beasts from one another.

[VegaS10]

@Tobi , I currently own the previous OD CPO (non Self Edge piece).

which one is this? the 293?

[VegaS10]

@Oaktavia Correct.

[crollee]

Toss my name on the long list of suitors for this one....and the 293 OD.

There just so much great s**t; it's annoying ...

@Oaktavia I don’t have the 409, but would love to know your opinions/analysis of the two fabrics (themselves).

I’ve come to the resolve that 19oz is my sweet spot for jeans…i end up wearing/fading this weight the most on my legs…and evidently, I am all-in on the 12/14oz for tops.

Regardless, I would love to hear your insight into the differences wrt these two denims. In my mind, the 409 ib is more similar to 19L. or else more similar to the RHT 19oz SEXIH07/09 collabs? I wonder if the 409 fabric existence was borne out of SEXIH25 sampling?

[Oaktavia]

@Boit The 19ozib is like a royal blue, highly saturated almost purple when new. The richness of the denim color yields sophisticated ranges of indigo unlike any other I have seen. The denim is smooth.

The SEXIH25 denim is like ballpoint pen ink in some areas, while having that muted OD look. The slubs are soft yet rigid, irregular. The color is in and of itself with denim.

19ozib is not similar to the 19L. Difference in color, texture, everything. These two denims could not be more different in my opinion.

Does this help provide insight on the three 19oz beasts? I quite love all three for what they each are, individually.

I was also wondering if the 19ozib was rejected during the 5 year development of the SEXIH25 .

@Oaktavia can I hire you as a consultant to describe to my wife why the indigo shirts in my closet are different? This is a service I need my life. O.D.C. Ltd. (Oaktavia Denim Consultants Limited.)

[VegaS10]

@Oaktavia , thanks for the great insight!

[VegaS10]

@derek111 My wife won't fall for this. I just play dumb and say "shit, they're like Pokemon...gots to catch them all!"

[Oaktavia]

@derek111 hahaha yes!

[Oaktavia]

@VegaS10 You are welcome
