The best fades come from initial soaks composed of 1 part tears, 4 parts tap water

Congrats @deanclean

Excited to see everyone's pics and hear their experiences here. Should have mine in hand in a week or so.

Guys on the other side of the big water receive theirs within 2 days while the UPS has Euro customers by the proverbial bawls and takes forever to pull the thumb out of the ol' gary glitter and actually get the goods delivered.

Yeah, I am super grateful that Iron Heart is cool enough to spring for FREE 2 day overseas shipping. I have tried to pay for the same UPS service and it was over $100.

Also, I am in love with the leg openings on the jeans, and the stacks.The honeycombs look freaking epic too because of the thickness of the denim. These jeans are a masterpiece.

Looking good Bro!!! Making me excited to get mine in a few days.

For the first time ever, I sized down, and (I hope) I am ready for "the fight"…..

Ganbatte!

@tvenuto I agree.  I always go for the quality over quantity.  At 600 CAD for these its a bit of a stretch, but I will be wearing them for years.  I look in my wife's closet and see about 100 pairs of jeans that are basically "disposable" fashion.  Ive got about 5 pairs that I wear regularly and will last basically forever.  I also never wash them so im saving water too! ;D.

Thanks a lot.

I like these so much I am thinking about buying the last 38. Seriously tempted.

We have enough of this fabric to make another 300 somethings.  We may rerun the 555 or the 888….

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

If you could rerun half as many this time around- and then make some sort of vest that has a zipper and snap closure, that also has size 4XL, that'd be great.

@Filthy:

FYI…..

The pic of your hellatiously stacked jawnz convinced me to cancel the hemming on my pair.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

The small leg openings facilitate very easy stacks. I mean, they were no effort at all.

Let battle commence

I thought you guys were joking about the buttons 🥵 the pain. Need to allow plenty of time for bathroom visits 🥴

Seriously amazing denim can’t wait to start the break in

Since you brought this up, I've never really understood statements like "We'll never run this fabric again" or the one you just made.  Why is it that certain fabrics can't be made or purchased again?  Cost prohibitive?  Or more of a desire to change things up?

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

@Paul9221 there's always a chance that they will rerun something if the demand supports it. Like the original 25 XHS was originally made for VMC Original. But the demand was so huge that they kept making it. But you also have to take into account the expense of making denim like this. Because it is a pain in the ass for the denim mills to make, with often about 75 percent is unusable waste… there's often no financial incentive for them to make more.

[Paul9221]

Thanks @Filthy , I figured the answer was money-related but was hoping that it had something to do with the limited amount of magical unicorn hairs left in the world, or something more fantastical

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

My pleasure.

I know it's an impossibility… but a 526L made from this fabric would be amazing.
