Understood :).

@Giles:

Every time we weave a batch of 25oz, we think it may be the last…..

That being said, what's the word on the 25oz. Double Indigo?

[Giles]

Being woven.  Patch almost designed.  Two cuts, I'm taking about 40 or 50 of each cut….

@Giles:

Two cuts…

No chance of one of them being 555?

[Giles]

Well guessed…..

[neph93]

I'd have been surprised… Are there any plans for new iterations of the 555 cut?

[browniemcghee]

G, any ballpark idea when these will drop? I am having a tough time just getting funds ready for the two UHFs I hope to buy.  A little lead time to plan would be helpful and appreciated, if possible.

Oh, yeah! 

[Brock]

That's awesome! What cuts?

[Giles]

Fraid not….

I would speculate that we'll see the two most popular fits- so you'll get the 634-XHSII and the 666-XHSII.  But that, and the model names, are strictly a guess on my part…

Seems likely.

I dunno I could see a 777 double indigo for the Asian market. Bet they would be all over that in South East Asia.

[Giles]

Not necessarily, as the cuts are being driven by a retailer…...

[Brock]

G So what you're saying is, you can't tell us? Or you just love the suspense of watching us squirm and guess while we wait?

[Giles]

Short answer.  I could.

Long answer.  Any collaboration we do, I leave it up to the retailer to decide how they want to announce it.  If I went ahead and told you any more than I already have, without due deference to the co-collaborator, I would expect, and deserve a very uncomfortable phone or email exchange soon after I placed my foot in my mouth.  Sometimes the retailer says, say what you want when you want, then I do, but I always let them drive it, after all it's their gig not ours….

Two cuts driven by a retailer.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is Self Edge not the primary retailer of IH goods? This leads me to guess that the cuts would be 301s and 633s, SE's flagship IH cuts. If that's the case, then I'm beyond excited because the 633s is probably the best cut for me across at least ten raw denim manufacturers.

However, in my unwavering excitement for future collabs and new denim, I emailed Kiya specifically asking about the 25oz. double indigo denim and if SE would carry it. The response was that it was too rigid and heavy to be worn. So I don't know what to expect.

Also I'm very new to this community so please let me know if this kind of public speculation is appropriate.
