Can anyone comment on the tightness of the weave of these (and IH's 14oz denim in general)? How does it compare to the 21oz SBGs?

How warm are the IH N1-Bs? Let's say, with nothing beneath them but a t-shirt, how cold would it be outside before another layer was needed?

@chech69 I have the original SEXIH07IIIBK and to echo what has been said in replies to your question, it is a black jacket. It is surely a different "black", however, than any other black article of clothing I own. In the light it has a greenish, grey-blue tint to it. You can't quite put your finger on what's different about the black but there's something truly unique about it.

Can anyone who has had any jeans with UHR denim comment on if the thighs stretch a bit over time after they're shrunk? Every measurement on the 32" pair (post-shrink) looks perfect except for the thighs, which are just a hair too small.

I only fell in love with the UHR denim after it was supposedly discontinued, so I'm unfamiliar with it. Can anyone who has worn it before comment on if the thighs will stretch back out again? Currently, the way a 32 looks fully stretched is absolutely perfect in every way except for the thighs, for which the 33's measurements are ideal for me.

Or, when the time comes, would the IH staff be courteous enough to find me the 32" pair with the largest thigh measurements? Thanks

What's the shrinkage like on the UHR?

@twin:

@poweramper  Your jacket looks great.

Some of the best evo I've ever seen on any raw denim clothing. I love the pockets and buttonholes in particular.

Maybe call it the IH-650 because that's literally half way between 634 and 666

Self Edge is doing a 14oz overdyed Type III w/ pockets in a month or so, and Giles said that 17oz natural indigo Type III's are on their way @JDelage @Dion

@Giles will these ever be restocked?

On the topic of incoming denim, any news on when the 18oz. vintage 634s are coming? What about the 17oz. type III? @Giles thanks!

@Giles any word on the 17oz. Type III?

@kiya I've only ever been to SENY, but every time I'm there I'm entranced by the music that your guys play over the speakers. I think it'd be really cool for if you guys had a publicly viewable Spotify/Soundcloud playlist that guys like me could follow. You're obviously all about the culture of classic and modern takes on classic workwear, so why not share some of the music you that's also a reflection of that culture?

I offered the idea to a few guys at SENY over the summer, and they were really into it. Don't remember names though. Austin, maybe? Thanks!

Indigo x Black denim! It's very popular with the youth these days, and I'm sure the diehards wouldn't be able to resist new IH denim either.

I've only wore mine for four days now, but at any point do they stop bleeding? I'm particularly concerned about a pair of sneakers I have made from vegetable tanned leather - I wore them with these jeans for one day and a jarring amount of indigo bled on to them. Does this subside at any point?

What exactly is "vintage" about the new denim? The pictures aren't too detailed, but am
I wrong to assume that they look very slubby/textured? @Giles thanks!

Even if it's sanforized, could it be made with at least a 36" inseam? Tall guys would appreciate it!

@Giles , I saw 666 as one of the cuts. Any word on the other one?

Anything with indigo warp x black weft. I would buy it all in a heartbeat.

Indigo warp x black weft rider's jacket!!!

Is there an ETA for the upcoming 17oz natural indigo type III jacket? It's not listed on the page with the pretty pictures, although I only saw it mentioned in the thread about stuff that's in progress.
