@cyclops cheers. before buying anything I copy and paste in the sizing chart below it and whittle away the sizes til I find the one that most closely matches the sizes I am happy with. Based on the numbers on the sheet and how I know it actually feels wearing them.
That way, when something goes Live, I just can go ahead and try and buy what I have already decided. No messing about.
I know the 'compare' tool can kinda do this but this way I can see everything I have at a glance in my own time and in whatever order I need. The key is just keeping it updated as you go and it's an always live database of where I'm at.

@Stringthing75 nah but this is good, its a bit more personalised to you and what you actually own etc so i see merit in this. Like i think mentally we might have an idea of what works for your own body shape for this brand but having it down i think would be cool. So thanks for the idea

Curious why is it SBG and not SBW. Is there some technical limitation that it cannot be white, or just preference?

Hi, noticed a small inconsistency between the what is uhr page and product pages

@harvestofgrief Good spot, I think it should say "is calculated at 21oz per square yard" then "becomes a denser 23oz"
I'm sure all the info on the product pages is a pain to write in such detail!

Why no retailers in South America?
-
We have never actively recruited retailers, we want them to find us. Making the effort is half of the process of qualification. No retailers from South America have bothered.
And for the moment, if they did, the answer would be no. We cant make enough product as it is and have recently gone through a very painful retailer reduction exercise in an attempt to lessen the strain on the factories and keep stuff on the shelves longer for us and the remaining retailers.

I should have been clearer. I was more curious as to why no one has opened the kind of high end denim shop that would stock Iron Heart in SA. I thought about it, and speculated about pricing and GDP per capita, but then I thought, no, there are loads of huge cities and tons of rich people down here. And then I thought about the climate, but that can't be it - it's plenty cool for heavy denim in lots of places and that's never stopped anyone in SE Asia anyway. I couldn't really come up with an answer, so just thought I'd see if you had any guesses.

I suspect anyone with money in South America needs a "label".
Case in point. I bumped into a extraordinarily shallow and socially insecure (but very wealthy) acquaintance of mine in the pub, soon after I started working with Haraki. I was wearing OG IH-634S.
He said, wow those are really nice, but I would not wear them.
I said, Why?
He said, Because I have not heard of themTosser
