Time For a New Jeans Cut….

[Giles]

@Dion:

Excuse my ignorance but has there been an ETA for the first 21 oz run?

No idea, have not even seen the first sample yet…..

[Dion]

Thanks. I am really looking forward to this cut as I am really appreciating a higher rise as of late.

Giles, will these have the same leg opening at say 34 as 37 length? So we won't lose the taper when we hem them?

[Giles]

I think what you are saying is that you want the jean to taper in the leg to inseam of 34 and then not taper anymore until you get to 37?  If so, no.

[spitfiredealer]

That's it. Oh right ok

[Giles]

Think about it, you want the selvedge side seam, yes.  So how do you vary the taper and retain the selvedge side seam…..

[spitfiredealer]

I thought on some cuts you were doing this. So it goes straight down from say 34-37. So for example a 8" hem at 37 is still a 8" hem at 34 as opposed to becoming wider and losing the taper.

[Giles]

No.  I have made some cuts have, let's say 8" cuff at 34", but the taper continues (it has to) to say 37", where the cuff will be a few mm smaller than at 34"

[spitfiredealer]

Right gotcha

@Giles:

…So how do you vary the taper and retain the selvedge side seam.....

@Giles - I would assume the same way you vary the taper for the rest of the leg and keep the straight slevedge outside seam - by varying the cut/taper on the inside seam. The taper is different from crotch to knee (13" +/-) than from knee to hem, so why not again different (i.e. straight) from 33" +/- to hem? Just curious… Thanks. mpp

G Any word on the sample yet?

[Giles]

If there was, you'd already know about it…..

[Dion]

Depending on the final measurements I'm planning to grab either the new (lot yet to be announced) cut or a 634.

G, would you consider releasing this cut in the upcoming 21oz. ii? I think that releasing this cut initially in the new denim would probably create a big buzz and create lots of new converts to this cut.  Just a thought.

Where is this new 21oz denim being discussed? Cheers! mpp

[Giles]

The new 21oz is a non-selvedge denim that H is working.  It is designed to be a wabash…....If the bleaching does not work (and H is concerned it may not), then he will consider doing jeans out of it, but (and that is a big but), it is non-selvedge....

@Giles - Thnx

[browniemcghee]

Yes, thanks for the info, G. I wish that lack of selvedge weren't a deal breaker for so many, but I understand it is.  I don't really care, but hey.  I know it is pointless to lobby at this point, but these in the new 18oz. Vintage would be killer.

@Giles - forgive me if you already stated this, but what denim(s) are you considering for the new cut? Thnx. mpp

[Giles]

21oz to start with.  No other thoughts yet….
