Hi all! I'm a newbie to Iron Heart (and forum usage more generally) so please excuse my naiveté, but I was wondering if the 1955 cut has ever been offered in anything other than the 21oz or 21/23oz UHR weights? I think it's a fantastic cut and could be the perfect summer/warm weather jean if it was available in lighter weights (14-17oz).
As far as I remember the only other iteration was the 21oz, but over-dyed. Like many other satellite cuts, the 1955 has a small but loyal following. That is enough to keep them being made (just), but not enough to warrant runs in other iterations.
One thing worth knowing is that many find the 21oz denim more wearable in heat than the 14oz. Personally I find the 16oz slub to be the best summer weight denim from IH. Also, the 888 is very similar to the 1955, so the IH-888s-SLB may be of interest to you.
Thanks for your response! I didn't realize that the 14oz had a tighter weave than the 21oz. I guess that just means I'll have to save up and try the 21oz 1955 and 888 cuts
