I know the yardage varies per run. But, how wide is a bolt or roll of typical IH denim, before it gets cut up and such?

[Giles]

Selvedge is 30" wide and 50 yards long…

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Cool. Thanks Giles.

@TrickHell:

@DougNg:

Are any of the teeth loose or out of alignment?

The other possibility if nothing is jammed in there is that one of the teeth got deformed

I suspect that's the issue. If so… anything that can be done?

Pliers and dental picks to undo the zipper, but it'll get stuck again if you try to zip it. That zipper is toast if the teeth are loose or deformed

Looks right to me. Trim and the shoulders look good. I bet it's really warm.

IHSH-OHB: Super duper limited, endangered or possibly extant?

[Anesthetist]

Gonna guess like most first run shirts, it's gonna depend on how it sells.

[Giles]

Correctissimo….

When do the 14 ozers roughly gonna hit up?

[Giles]

Due to an unfortunate (but ultimately brilliant) accident the first 10 or so rolls of the new denim were woven with the wrong weft…..Doh.  It came out lighter in weight than we wanted.  So that has delayed things a little, I'm hoping to see finished samples when I am in Japan in 4 weeks or so, and see general availability March-ish.

Why the brilliance?  Because we have a 13 or so ounce vintage type denim to make shirts from....Feckin BOOM....

Lucky coincidence!

Enjoy ya addiction!

[Dion]

Wow, that's amazing. (A short-sleeved denim-shirt would kick ass :-X).

Just in time for spring/summer!

Double brilliant. I like a lot. When you say vintage type, what does that refer to?

[Giles]

The fading

[neph93]

At the risk of appearing dumb, does that mean traditional weave with white weft, that isn't specifically designed to create high contrasts? If so, that sounds ace.

[Giles]

White weft/indigo warp…Think mid 20th Century Levi's....
