There's no Such Thing as a Stupid Question

Hi,
What exactly the different between IHSH-99 vs IHSH-293OD as far as material or the way it dye?
Beside the obvious: 17oz vs 18oz, 1 is retired vs not? 
The 99 shrunk almost 1 size so it won't shrink anymore after wash?  vs 293 will shrink some?
One feel different vs the other? fade different?…

Thanks,

Overdyeing takes all the shrinkage out of any fabric. So the 293 is also fully shrunk.

Otherwise the 17oz and 18oz are quite different. The 17oz was devised as a very heavy shirting denim. Relatively tight weave and even hand. The 18oz on the 293 was originally devised as denim for vintage style jeans. It has a slightly looser weave and a little more texture.

The major point regarding fading is that they are both indigo denim that has been garment dyed with black fugitive dye, so go black>indigo/grey>white. I don’t think one fades quicker than the other, but the 18oz may have the edge due to its greater texture.

Thank you so much for the good learning info.

Why are some of my pictures unable to upload? Thought the file size was too big so I resized to smaller than another picture that worked, still no dice.

[endo]

file format?

[goosehd]

Make sure the file is in the proper format.  I always use .jpeg

@endo:

file format?

They're all .jpg straight from my phone

[Giles]

What size are the ones that are failing?

hmm, .jpg should work if size is not too big
phone not set to .heic?

So this one works, 2.91 MB .JPG

BUT the next picture in my roll fails and it's only 1.49mb

[Giles]

And it definitely a jpg?

Could you please send it to me at giles.padmore (at) ironheart.co.uk

Very strange ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[Giles]

I reduced the size in Photoshop and it works, so perhaps the size is on the cusp…..

Size does matter.

I hope this question is not stupid, is there a design reason beind that oiled M65 jacket has smaller chest size than the sateen M65?

Every run is slightly different even in the same fabric. Different fabrics will behave differently when it is being cut and sewn. AFAIK

Yep,  different fabrics behave differently when we sew them up.

All UHF's have slightly different sizing, because even different colour dyes in the same yarn cause the finished fabric to behave differently.

Selvedge denim is woven in 50-meter rolls, the denim at one end of the roll can be different from the other end of the roll, so much so, that we have to cut a garment from the same area of the roll, otherwise you will notice a visible and possibly textural difference in the pieces when the denim is sewn together.

Hi all - probably stupid question here. Even when logged in I can’t see the marketplace forum, including the comments I’ve previously made on posts there. Anyone have any ideas?

The marketplace is locked until you reach 20 posts.  There is a long thread explaining the reasoning behind this.
