@kiya will you be doing anymore of the 633 18oz overdye or is this all she wrote?
There are currently no plans to remake that jean in the near future.
Thank you @kiya . Will you be doing the overdye IH 14oz fabric in the 633 cut? I thought I remember reading that somewhere but I could be mistaken
Yes, but not until the late fall.

Flat Head Flannel Shirts & The 3002 Slim Tapered Jean
This week from Flat Head we've received two new long sleeve shirts and the 3002 model jean.
Flat Head produces some of the most intricate textiles for shirting we've seen. With both of these shirts they've taken fairly common patterns and made them explode with the level of detail they contain. One is a brushed winter flannel and the other is the newest take on their "Native Check" series.
We've also received the Flat Head 3002 slim tapered jean. This is made of their flagship 3XXX 14.5oz loomstate denim which is one of the best denim styles for those wanting to achieve a high contrast fade over time with regular wear.
_All these items along with a full restock of wallets, cordovan card cases, and hoodies have hit all of our stores. _

If you're a slender person: they had so so many nice Iron Heart shirts at SELA.
That store was awesome and the guy working there was super friendly. I brought his some Iron Heart stickers I had to express my gratitude for helping me.
I got to hold that Wild Child TFH wallet and I most definitely gonna have to buy it. They had this short sleeve Wabash Studio D'Artisan shirt I loved but they were way too small.

@Filthy25ozJunkie nice! Good thing I don't live in Portland anymore, I lived about a minute away from SEPDX.
Did you see the black Wild Child wallet by chance? How thick are they?
Cheers.

Yeah the small black one was what I saw (and want). The spine is about as wide as my thumb.About 1.25 inches uncompressed. It will flatten out to like around .5 inches in your pocket. It is so so nice.

Sorry @QuantumMechanic forgot to tag you. I don't read every post in the forum. Idk if you do. So tagging.

They are really nice wallets. I will post pictures of mine soon on the leather thread. Highly recommend them.

@Filthy25ozJunkie thanks. I'm planning on getting one in the spring, unless something else catches my eye, but so far I'm undecided between the black or tan. Cheers.

@Filthy25ozJunkie or @kiya ,
Does the TFH Wild Child wallet use cow tendon thread? The website doesn't specify (all the TFH wallets state they do). How do you feel it compares the IH wallet? Any chance of a side-by-side comparison shot?I love the look of the IH one but just don't see any need for the coin pouch. The mid-length version is glorious also but a bit too massive for me.
-
As far as I know the mid length does not. It looks like waxed and twisted polyester.
-
As far as size goes take the longest side of a regular bifold wallet and square it. The midlength is almost square.. Almost because the vertices are about .25" shorter.

Sorry, I should clarify… the TFH mid-lengths all say "waxed cow tendon thread." I was wondering if the Wild Child utilizes the same since the description doesn't mention the thread.

Thanks! So less rectangular than the IH folding wallet. And it sounds like it may be about half the thickness.

Manticore, I believe the Wild Child does use cow tendon thread.
As far as thickness, I can pm you pictures if you would like of the overall thickness once they break in.
The Wild Child wallets now use a special nylon thread that's designed for hand sewn wallets, it's over twice as strong as cow tendon thread, which is quite important if you're trying to keep a wallet for many years.

Nice I did not know this. Would my older one have cow tendon?
It's probably 3 years now. Thanks for the clarification.
