      This maybe an ignorant question, so please excuse me in advance.

      Now that TW is gone, what about making lighter weight jeans (634, 666, etc) in the 17 oz IHSH-76, and better yet, the various 12 oz versions of IHSH-33 (-blk, -od, -85, upcoming indigoxindigo) fabrics?

      And oh, more colors in the IH-816 please! Perhaps gunmetal, chocolate brown, and olive.

      -D

        There's a 14.125 oz version of the 634 in development, so you just might be in luck…

          And 17oz 634 and 66 are being released this fall…

              I would really like to buy reinforced motorcycle denim jeans from you, because I think even the expensive options our there look awful. A good choice of polyamid seems to be Schoeller Dynatec, but there are also various Aramid and Kevlar variants that can be woven into the denim cloth. Some protector pockets would make sense too, to fit d3o or similar. As rugged as the 21+ Denim IHS' might be off the bike, they will go up in smoke in no time when sliding over tarmac. http://www.schoeller-textiles.com/en/fabric-groups/protection/schoeller-dynatec.html

                  Thanks @nicecrackaction .  Not sure we want to get into this specific market.

                    I understand Giles, but somehow having all that motorcycle bravado and not a single motorcycle-ready pair of jeans is strange as well. May some collab with a great brand in that area? Like Belstaff, Lewis Leathers or something of the sort?

                      And the maple people (like a number of others) simply sew in a layer of kevlar or Aramid in relevant areas which works fine as well, if weaving it in the fabric is too complicated.

                        I'd go for this in a big way too, and I suspect a lot of us who ride may be able to justify the purchase.  I'm picturing kevlar lining (or similar) done in a similar manner to the flannel lining in the X634sX. I don't expect they'd be cheap, but they'd be a great part of the line up for the 'Motorcycle Specialties' brand. I've looked at all the options out there, and this would blow them away.

                        Adding armour pockets may be more trouble than it's worth, I'd rather just see kevlar lined ones happen rather than nothing due to it being too hard.  You can get knee pads to go under your jeans if need be.

                          E.g. Pike Brothers do offer jeans with an attachable Kevlar-inner-pant for protection. It'd be very nice to see IH doing something like that:

                          http://pikebrothers-shop.com/PikeBrothers/ItemView.action?menuMainGrp=00000001&loadGroups=true&number=P0101-15-0004&request_locale=en

                          Or a seperate IH-protection-kit for your jeans?

                              There meanwhile a lot of (better and worse ^^) denim companies on the market, with 'special' bike jeans -> Pike Brothers 'Motoroamer', King Kerosin 'Speedking' and several more …...
                              IH Denim stands, from the first, for solid & superb quality and feels like bulletproof!  😉 ... therefore - who needs this 'rubbish' from IH?  🙂

                                I like that idea. And I'd love to see an olive pocket or plain Tee.

                                      Thirded. Although I doubt there would be an Advantage to getting three single Tees, costwise.
