That's awesome. Sometimes I wish I followed my granddad, getting a degree in mechanical engineering instead of law. These old pieces of machinery are stunning!

Stunning indigo weft/persimmon warp denim

Traditional Kimono fabric (we bought a lot of different types of this )

Wow what beautiful fabrics and cool machinery. What's the plan with the kimono fabric and when will we see the natural indigo? Also will the 21ozSBG be in Gosport soon?

[AdamJ]

@Nik 21oz SBG won't be here for a good few months, if you're referring to the superblack selvedge non-fade, then current ETA is April

[Nik]

Thanks @AdamJ

[Giles]

We will use it at home and on SAKURA as table runners...

The natural indigo denim will be completed in about 11 months, then we have to sample and make stuff. It's unlikely that we will make jeans from it, as it will be fearfully (but gratifyingly) expensive....

@Giles Amazing to see all the time consuming details and hard work that is put into making the world’s best denim. Thank you for sharing. Geeking Mekka Hahha
