Primaloft?

[Giles]

No, that's polyester lined…..

Thanks, guess I should have looked at the pretty pictures post first. What's the over/under on how many days it takes for the IHSH-156 to sell out?

@d.s3:

Question about the new 18oz vintage denim, and please excuse me if its a stupid one. What is vintage about it? The color, feel, or something else entirely?

Not a stupid question, I was actually wondering the same thing.

[Giles]

The vintage gospel according to H:
Denim has to be woven slow and low tension by old shuttle.
And it has to be the thickest made by this way. (Here H talks specifically about our 18oz)
_I don't prefer exaggerated face with just using thick yarn. It should be normal, natural face too.
Sanforized is also very important so that we can solve the problem while wearing and sticking to old style raw vintage is not first priority.

And the sewing should be tough like regular IH heavy oz denim, using core spun and thick thread. Again, if we stick to vintage, we would use cotton thread. But we don't do that.

Mixing old methods and new techniques is IH's "Vintage Style"_

Thanks for explaining it G! Makes a lot of sense and I'm looking forward to the vintage fabrics even more as a result of it.

Low tension weave?  So the guess would be more breathable than the current 18 oz?

[Giles]

Sounds like a reasonable assumption….

[manufc10]

Low tension would mean it should be slubby and irregular much like Oni's fabrics I would guess.  Which are great fabrics.

I can't imagine iron heart putting out something super-slubby like that. We'll have to wait and see, but I hazard it will be pretty uniform in texture.

Those indigo corduroy shirts are stunning.  I love cords, I love indigo…yep.

Too bad I'd probably have to get those tailored to fit me.  :<

[Jordonf9]

Glad I have time to save….the list of drool for me...

130(purple)
156(burgundy)
159
163(plenty of time to decide...ha)

The IHSH-164 is pure porn

[Giles]

I was asked if we could do it with pockets.  The answer was yes we can.  But I decided not to complicate matters.  These cost a small fortune to make, thus stock.  I could not justify having to hold double.

[Dion]

I think they're looking best without pockets.

[Dion]

A good tailor can always fix that for you ;).

The American instant gratification is really raging in me right now. After seeing the cookie monster western UHF just hanging in my closet everyday, I want the red, green, and purple to drop like right now.

September just seems soooo far away…..

Any available intel on the weight and the fabric of the upcoming 718 "heavy" cargos?  Does heavy = 16-18 oz.?  Anything extinct that's similar to the satin cotton material?  Cheers in advance –
