@Mindfulbiscuit I’m gonna to give this a break and move on with the sashiko for 6 months and see how that goes

@DeeDee85 @Mindfulbiscuit I’ve got mine waiting in the wings, but you guys are inspiring me to get going on it, but maybe next spring/summer now.

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@Mister_Brue I’m sure you’ll exceed us,’no pressure

@DeeDee85 it's funny how on some days in the summer even the 10oz chambray is too much while now I am living in xhs and uhf's

[DeeDee85]

@FlavourFade I know.. I’m yet to try the XHS, I’ve been worried with being hot blooded that they won’t work for me. Saying that though, I was so happy after recently switching from 14oz to 21oz SBG when the temps dropped. So unbelievably soft and cosy maybe I could do the XHS in the coldest of the winter months?

[FlavourFade]

@DeeDee85 tbh I can do heavy bottoms way better than tops... Have been wearing 21oz whole summer with only a couple days swapping to my ducks. But will try some 14oz maybe next summer.

I think 25oz is great even when its not freezing because they get very soft and breathable. Maybe not like 21oz but still comfy for me

@DeeDee85 I'm very much hot blooded as well. (UHFs for instance are just too warm for me for regular use, even in winter in Norway). But like @FlavourFade it's only really an issue for tops in my case.

And if you haven't tried XHS, you really should! Most fun and enjoyable piece of clothing/fabric I've ever come across. The ultimate denim in my opinion, and something that just makes daily life a little bit better

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@JunkPants with the xh denim do you size up one

[DeeDee85]

@JunkPants @FlavourFade thank you both very much for the info.. may have to give the XHS a go then when the next re-stock comes around

[JunkPants]

@Mindfulbiscuit Typically I don't, but I may, depending on the specific measurements. So like any other pair really. You have to account for a little bit of shrinkage, but it's so well documented here (and I've had enough experience by now), that I find it pretty easy to work out the right size.

[JunkPants]

@DeeDee85 You really should try a pair!

The list of great IH items is long, and opinions will vary, but if I were forced to pick a single favourite piece, without a shadow of doubt, it would be XHS jeans.

[DeeDee85]

@JunkPants I’ve read that exact sentence quite a few times now from different forum users.. I’ll let you know if my funds permit at the time of the next re-stock

[JunkPants]

@DeeDee85 Before long you'll be writing it yourself!

[Mindfulbiscuit]

@JunkPants right makes sense nice one
