Looks great. I'm a fan of whipcord garments. I checked these when they came out, but they obviously sewed up small, at least in XXXL.

The whipcord material is really cool--still disapointed with no smaller hemmed chinos. Def sewed up small, but by 'up sizing' I was able to gain some length in body/sleeves. |

disheveled there have been a few smaller hemmed chinos. The 711's are the most recent ones I believe.

I showed the image to Tom san whilst I was in Kojima yesterday. She was appalled and is going to beat up on the workshop we use.
Despite the jokers suggesting we use the QC folks from Gustin, I checked that too - she does not know who Gustin is.....

Just a cheap joke that this one piece seemed to have slipped through you guys' normally tight QC. I'd be hard pressed to pick a brand that more consistently turns out quality pieces than IH. Thanks for being about 15% of our sad site's traffic. It's impressive to see your continued presence here and your concern for your product. Also have to give you credit for a well run site and continuing to push new design, fits and materials. Maybe I'll move to the UK just so the VAT thing won't bother me. |

Of all my IH purchases (a bunch) I’ve only had one QC issue and they promptly took care of it for me. With their level of customer service even if you did have QC issues I’m certain they would make it right. |

What other IH goodies does DR carry? Beyond the 3 jeans and 1 jacket live now, Alex mentioned the 33-T on IH's ig feed and I think I recall the black corduroy trucker too. |

Any opinions on the 25oz VS the UHR 21/23oz?

Any opinions on the 25oz VS the UHR 21/23oz? I don't own the 25oz (yet) but I hear it's actually more breathable than the UHR. |

Any opinions on the 25oz VS the UHR 21/23oz? XHS isn't as warm as you would think (still on the warm side). Drapes well, has some slight shrinkage but mostly in the inseam. Very dark and stiff but softens quite a bit. Never handled the UHR. |

Any opinions on the 25oz VS the UHR 21/23oz? I guess was assuming you already have the UHR when I made my previous comment...well if you don't, it's an awesome fabric. Very stiff, rigid, heavy, all that jazz...fades fantastically, tons of character but very warm and probably the least breathable IH denim I own. It's a bit of a lighter shade of Indigo from the start than most selvedge Indigo's I would say. Overall it's a monster of a denim, in a good way. |

Thanks for the responses, guys.
21oz is my heaviest pair and with how soft that fabric becomes, I figured why not go bigger!

I wouldn't hesitate to grab a pair if I were you, especially considering they just used up the last of the fabric with the latest 888 run. |

Life's too short for sanforization.
This should be on a coffe-mug.
Sidenote: Ive been wearing and washing my zloomies like a normal person. Blasphemy you call out before I even finnish the sentence - and you are right, but I got them second hand here and they are a little too big wich I knew ( I also have the first run loomies wich fits perfect so I had that covered (the founders edition - loomie-looms)), but I also lost some weight, so i really have to wash them often to tighten them in. But the fun thing is that they dont look half bad, sure they have no combs to speak of, but other then that they start to be pretty nice. Someimes when they get a little too stretched out I think "what the f!@k am i wearing?" but then I remember - hey they are zimbabwe and I also had fun hot-smurfing them and they actually start to develop fades and man they are substantial. I like.
So....yeah bring in some loomies in your life and make some memories.
