IH-555-XHSib

Although I'm not a fan of reactive dyed denim these are looking superb. So many great 555s coming this F/W season :'(.

I am assuming indigo is same indigo as regular XHS ? Correct ?

It's not the same as the regular XHS.
The warp is indigo, like the regular XHS. The weft is superblack(will not fade), whereas the weft on regular XHS is white.

I would think that the guys at Pronto would be all over this,and at least this time it’s not a Pronto exclusive.

Got it , is there an example of the fade of this fabric anywhere ?

@Mustafa911 If you Google Shadow Selfedge Fade and click on images,you can see some examples of the 316 denim which is similar in the fact that it also has a black weft thread. The IH jean is not exactly the same because the black is reactive dyed an will not fade. Hope this helps.

@jett129 thanks . I was hoping to see indigo/ reactive fade . I now understand it’s something new

No, as far as I know, we are the first to make this

Excitment levels are through the roof for this pair of denim wizardry. Worst part is FW in the northern hemisphere translates to raging inferno in the land down under….. Still going to be worth it on Christmas day BBQ

The more I am looking at them the more I'm starting to like them.

Curious to know will the 888s come out about the same time?

Did I read somewhere that the 555-XHSib and the 555Sii would be sewn with Tonal stitching?

Judging by the pictures of the samples and the info in this thread then I’d say not. There was something that was getting tonal arcs but everything else contrast though, like the 555-01. There are do many interesting new denim iterations coming to IH land at the minute that I can’t keep track of the permutations.

@Alex:

**IH-555SII - Indigo/Indigo 18oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Cut

When this goes to production, it will have tonal stitching.

The 555SII will have tonal stitching everywhere, the 555XHSib not :).**

^ good man

[alexswords]

thanks for the info, i'm glad to hear that one will be tonal and one will not!! so pumped to see these beauties  :-\

I am IN on these.

I was going to buy something lighter weight for summer, but screw it. I live in Minnesota it's warm here for like 3 weeks.
