IH-666L - The Devil's Left Hand

[Matt]

Does the Left Hand weaving process affect cost?  Can you do that on any old antique shuttle loom or is there something special you'd need?

I'm also interested in why the lighter material is being used for this… was there something standing in the way of doing the 18oz or 21oz backwards or was there just an interest in doing something cool with this denim?

Look at me with all the questions today.

LHT more than RHT?  I don't think so.

Nothing standing in the way.  But I routinely hassle Haraki and Ono for what they have squirrelled away.  When I find something interesting, I try and use it.

Thanks for bringing these to the table. If I hadn't put my cash down for contest Mega Beetle Busters I'd be all over them. Edited to add that the patch is amazing.

All I can keep hearing in my head is Johnny Cash's The Devil's Right Hand. Lets hope the Devil's Left Hand is as awesome as Cash's Right Hand version. (I know they will be)

If only you could get past copyright, that would make an amazing patch! ^

Still, I'm loving theway these are shaping up. Dunno if I'll be in the market for them, but I'll watch with interest from the sideline.

So ive been wearing these for around a week now and they are fantastic.  The denim has a great feel and look, and the devils cut is great.  Ive been letting them settle down before I got pictures up but will try to get some up tomorrow.  If anyone has any questions about these feel free to ask here or pm me.

Anyone waiting on these, be stoked for the release. here are fit pictures and a quick snap to show how hairy the denim is right now

[Chris]

Why?  You don't like the IH arc?

Which is fine, not everyone is.  I have to admit, they took a while to grow on me.

I was just curious…

[corporalclegg]

I think he was saying maybe it would have been cool if they were a different color or perhaps reversed to symbolize the left hand twill. But who knows

[ironheartfan123]

^^ yeah pretty much that, i like the darker arcs on jeans like the vulcan, 555, etc.

@corporalclegg:

This is a cool idea- I like that.
