It does? It does and I am not sure how I forgot that. What about leg twist on LHT?

Edit: perhaps better stated as broken twill would imply no leg twist.

I think that both right hand and left hand twill get leg twist and from my understanding the twist follows the direction of the twill. I think it happens more on unsanforized fabric as it has not gone though the post skew process. The IH 19l jeans get left twist. Again I am not an expert just stating my understanding

[Boit]

the tracks go the other way on LHT as @yannis say. think about how the cotton is spun before it goes into the loom…and the layup of the twill.
eg
19RHT
.

19LHT

leg twist aside

definitely looks like RHT from here

Also clearly a standard, non-broken, twill weave here visible on the weft side.

Man I feel like a doink as I have read about this all before and just could not recall any of it. Thanks for the refresher, gents.

Short story, we’d know if it was LHT because they would have told us already. QED, it’s RHT
