      I got this note from Ayumi this morning.

      _Even though people behind 21oz production who have been used to it, 23oz and 25oz are totally different experience. Haraki san can give pretty accurate cost for 21oz items, but it is hard to tell when it comes about new items.

      There is always possibility that the factory give up making them or deny taking order from IH since IH items are very hard to sew. Haraki san has to make them do by visiting them a lot, find solution together and keep eyes on them which cost a lot too. This is how hard making items like Iron Heart and Haraki san would like you to understand._

      I don't want to unnecessarily hype the 25oz jeans, and I really hope that we can continue making them, but it is clear that these really are at the limit of what is sensibly possible to weave and construct.

          And on an even more positive note - the shipping date for the IH-666-XHS has just been bought forward to 6th September.

          ARE YOU TOUGH ENOUGH?

                            No idea about these.  None out there to look at other than my sample pair…...

                              I do love the rough feel of my 18oz 666s though more than the 21oz

                                I really want these, but this fact alone sealed the deal 😉

                                    cant speak for anyone else but for me nothing feels better than braking in a new pair of jeans to its like a second layer of skin and this would be the most ultimate challenge to date.

                                    not knowing how this denim will wear is another very appealing thing to me too.

                                        Because no other pair of jeans has the ability to end you

                                            666's were painful at 18 oz… 666XHS will be torturing.
