Shades of IH Denim
-
Ok, so I’m a bit bored off my ass, currently physically limited, stuck at home with anxiety through the roof because we just sent our two (too young to be vaccinated) kids off to public school in an area hot with delta and I’m trying to pass some time. So here’s a pic of my IH bottoms lined up real nice like a crazy person [emoji12]. Lighting is not great but I thought the different shades looked cool. L to R…
Duck (don’t know why it’s even in there) unwashed 21, unwashed 21L, 21, 18, 142. Wish I had some XHS to throw in the mix Maybe next time.

Nice comparison pic @SKT .
May be nice to get another one from much closer up, where we can also see the different textures amongst them. They would have to be much more overlapped to get them all in one frame, which is important for comparison.
Very cool!

[mention]Giles [/mention] I absolutely love the lefty’s. My first pair of IH jeans. They’ve been a bit neglected because I grew a little last year. I can wear them again now, just waiting for some cool weather. I can’t wait to see how they evolve once I’ve given them a proper wash and more wear time.

@SKT:
@Giles I apologize if this has been asked before, but will there be more cuts available down the road in the left hand twill? The texture is awesome and I love how you can actually feel the more pronounced weave.
I hope so. I was sad to see the current models listed as seasonal/limited run, just as I decided the 634 cut was for me after all. a return would be most welcome.
These are wonderful shots @SKT I appreciate the time and detail and they really are denim porn in the best sense of that otherwise hackneyed phrase.
I hope it took your mind off the stress of sending the kids to school. I'm in the same position, and while two of mine are fully vaccinated, I have a 14 year old, and 6 year old at school, and a 4 year old in kindergarten.

Thanks Reuben. Agree on the left hand twill. I hope it sticks around because it’s pretty awesome stuff. Our kids are 10 and 7. My sons’s grade sent 11 kids home to quarantine after ONE day! The positive kid was not in his class but the spectre is there constantly. Good luck to your kids at school and hope everybody stays healthy.

Cool thread @SKT!! Way to give your neighbors something to talk about too!!

Cool to see them side by side. Would be great to see this with not only XHS but also OD, SST, and Slub. the ih indigo palette

I know no one asked for a multi-crotch shot but here it is anyway
You can really see the 142 beginning to fade in this shot.
Also, the reason I went down this road in the first place was because I had all my denim out to re-hang on new denim hangers. They had been folded (bad idea) on traditional hangers. That practice was making some pretty irreparable creases, especially in the 142’s. Lesson learned.

Great pics @SKT , I need to expand my collection, love the different looks

@Joberwocky Thanks man! I’d like to add some whip cord cargos and a pair of XHS. That would do it for me. I wish that my collection had a little more diversity when it comes to age and fade intensity. Maybe in a year I’ll do another shot of all and compare. Incentive to wear more!
