I wonder if perhaps the coarseness of the 21 oz cpo might wear down and degrade the softer chambray lining of the parka over time? If this is the case, is that worth the damage to the lining of the parka? Perhaps another more rugged denim layer would best be used to create the rubbing you’re looking for, for fantastic fading friction…
This is something I hadn't thought of and further solidifies my newfound conclusion to wear them together less.

@Tobi yup! I’ve been layering my lefty over my IHJ-86…
See, I did this with my Slubby Type 2 and IHSH-409 and it worked out well. Seems it would be better suited for two more rugged denim fabrics with no lining.

@Oaktavia All this overthinking is definitely part of the fun. And the 189-IND is looking great.
@denim-dawg That’s interesting, I would have expected some serious fading after 250 days. (And thank you for sticking it out that long in the name of denim science).
@Mizmazzle I had the same thought regarding the chambray lining.
-
@Oaktavia Solid plan! Look forward to seeing progress.
Has anyone said when this is potentially dropping?
-
@natefreezy it was forecast for 2027 at some point.
-
@Oaktavia excellent work as always! Love the different hues that are coming through!
-
@Oaktavia Looking great!
-
@Oaktavia Love it! Wish this was coming next year!
-
@Oaktavia So Awesome. It’s been fun watching you evo the shit out of this. Do you think there’s a discernible difference in softness after all of these wears? I know their 21oz stuff starts out soft but I don’t have anything close to 144

In any case this is must buy as soon as they release!

Oh absolutely, it has softened up considerably and is super cozy wearing. My goal is 300 wears by the summer so I am nearly halfway there.

@Oaktavia The pink backdrop really just sets this photo off. lol Any washes/soaks yet?
-
@Go-For-Chill hah...it's a purple wall in my house. Looks pinkish in the photo I guess. It gets the best natural light from the skylights above it.
Here is my data from my wash/wear chart:
Start: 6/15/24 2024
1st wash: 61 wears, 8/20/25
2nd: 74 wears, 9/11/25
3rd: 112 wears, 10/26/25 -
@Mizmazzle yeah it goes all the way around, 21oz roping is quite nice.
-
@Oaktavia in my opinion this is your greatest project yet, based off these latest pics, really showing off the fade potential of this piece in 21oz. Bravo sir!
Hope measurments work out and I can pick one of these up once released, signature denim in such a great cut. Take my money!
