Lawless Fabric

When I visit www.ra-denim.com/mens-jeans/ all the prices are $98 and if I visit a swatch page like www.ra-denim.com/11-oz-cone-mills-indigo-over-indigo-mens-jeans/ the price above the Product Description says $98. So I would imagine that they didn't get to the text on the jeans page last night.

Yeah, sounds like you are right about the pricing...it is ok, though. Still a competitive price and they have the $69 option still with a decent variety. I also thought the custom size was per jean but it is a one time fee of $98. That is ineresting.

Sal, can you describe the Japan Dova? Is it a lighter indigo blue with white weft? Standard light blue jean look, or something different?

Silk was used all the time in Chinese clothings especially for my mom/grandma generation. My mom is staying with me this month and she put couple of her 100% silk shirts in my washing machine in cold and hang dry. The fabric may be a bit harder after the wash but it will loosen up after couple wears. On the other hand, they do not lose color like my Grey Silk.

One would say MiddleAge's report answers your question

I will chime in.  I have the GSilks 2 and I have only given them a soak and a spin dry in the dryer trying to shrink.  I think these actually came in a bit larger so I tried to shrink a bit (FYI I also ordered the regular Grey Silks and my back patch came in upside down).  Needless to say I had minimal shrink however no washer fades or anything like that.  These were my second pair of Gs and I they have a substantial amount of wear with minimal fading.  I don't know how I will treat them in the future however I am thinking a hot hot wash with hang dry is the way to go.  Would be interested to hear in how others have treated.

Unlike others I have heard, I still really like them.  They, along with the Hemp blend, are the most comfortable pair of "denim" I have ever put on.  

I ordered the Candiani lead yesterday. If yinz guys don't pull the trigger by then, I will do a review when they arrive...whenever that may be. It is all part of my "nothing over 13oz" initiative. Trying to keep it 12 or under, but that color, brahs...I want something light in colour and I am very curious how this is going to turn out. After I got the italian bluexblack gustins, I am weary of similar warp/weft because they start to make one colour and it isn't very "jean-y" ya know?

also, one of my coworkers is ordering 2 liters of kakishibu from Japan Amazon. She said they usually deliver in a few days.
2 liters of stuff
I can't read, but I am pretty sure that is the stuff using various online translators.  Eh...about $30...not bad for adventure.

I had a first glimpse (try on) of the 12 oz. organics from the KS yesterday. I really like the feel of these. Not too soft, a little crisp (perhaps from being pressed during production). My initial KS length was a little long, so after trying them on, Sal is going to have them shortened a little (thank you). I really like the look - a deeper indigo, but not so much that they'd appear to turn everything else blue. I think they'll break in quite nicely when I pick them up later this week. I'll post up some pics once I have them. Every detail from the original KS build was in tact - black/copper buttons, Egyptian topaz threading, single chainstitch, navy-striped pocket liners. I appreciate that those details weren't overlooked. It's very easy to have let those fall through the cracks in the interest of production, but the LD team has impressed.

I know it's not an easy solution for everyone (especially those in the community who are outside the US) to get measured up in person, but just follow the videos for sizing or have a tailor measure you up (per the video), you can't go wrong (unless you get fat during the production time).

Allow me to elaborate on that - I didn't pick them during the KS order confirmation. But, when I ordered a separate pair (from a promo via Roman), I set up my account with Laura and the team and essentially my default preference is the navy striped. So, pretty much all of my LD denim will have navy stripes. 

I'll defer to Dirty_Denim or @laura to confirm, but when I stopped by the shop yesterday, Sal showed me some of the completed shirts getting ready to ship, and one of them was the Indigo over Indigo (in an Oregon cut, which is something I have on order). It was deep blue. Absolutely. Not dark enough to be mistaken with black. In fact, I likened it to my Gustin Italian Midnights, thinking that the shirt may bleed a little at first. 
Maybe Laura can snap a pic or two of that shirt (Laura - it was hanging on the rack close to the front of the shop (where the various vintage sewing machines are set up). 

I will chime in say the 10.5 oz pics you are talking about look just like my 14oz Kaihara IxI Montana shirt fabric that I have reviewed here. It is dark indigo. Not black.
My shirt is just starting to get some very cool wear fades. I wear it a lot. I will get some pics up soon. It is fading into an electric blue. No grey going on here. I thought about ordering a 10.5oz shirt also.
