the 13.5oz TW denim is great, not unsanforized, but rivals the fading properties of TFH, and is coming (I believe) in a 634s cut.
Besides the high contrast fade what other characteristics of the SR denim are you speaking of? Of course the heft and stiffness is impossible in a denim so much lighter.
-
I've had two pair of the TW since one is a little small around the waist. I don't really think you can compare the the three denims except to compare them. The color (almost) and feel don't translate between the TW and SR and the FH color and feel are also much different. Obviously the heft and stiffness are a product of the SR weight, but the color, fade and feel may translate into a lighter denim.

I would love to see the typical heavy weight denim IH is known for, but with a heavily reinforced crotch. The crotch is the weakest point and redesigning/reinforcing would really be a step forward imo. If you get a hole in the leg you can usually get by, but a crotch blow out with your junk hanging out is pretty hard to work around. I realize this is a lot easier said then done, but it sure would be great.
