which are your quickest fading denim?
I would say the Kuroki 14 oz white selvedge id and the Kaihara 2x1 13,5 oz fade fairly well. My Cone peach selvedge is real inky and those also bleed alot. Of course you can go with the Indigo X Indigo that will give the most prominent fades

I appreciate the review and your honesty in your last statement. I should tell you choosing heavier canvas or anything for that matter will not affect the price. The white canvas you likely received were part of the KS campaign and still are but we also have just about anything you want but just have to ask. I do appreciate taking the time to review the jeans
Cool, good to know. Will the additional options be listed on the web site? Obnoxious but predictable question: any plans for a black Friday/cyber Monday promotion?
Here are some new pics and review of my Lawless Western/Montana shirt. It was ordered from old website before the recent newest size chart and website pics/description. Overall it should be the same as what you would order now. Will update if it is not the case.
This is a slim small in size. 14 oz. Kaihara Indigo over Indigo Selvedge Denim mens-size:small thread-color: White, button-snaps: Tiger Eye, pocket-lining: Black & White Stripes I have wanted a heavy selvedge indigo shirt with snaps and contrast stitching for a while and was happy when this arrived. I knew the white stitching would be a bold move. I could have went with the normal copper color but wanted to go a little crazy as I had seen leather jackets with white stitching and thought they looked great. There are also western shirts with stock white stitching. My shirt does stand out and I wouldn't wear it to church or anywhere conservative. I get to wear what I want to work from Metallica T-shirts, along with many other bands, to dress shirts and everything in between so this will fit in there. I will preface by saying I have an Iron Heart 16oz Super Black SS Western Shirt so I am used to a thick shirt. It borders on being a jacket. The Indigo/Indigo Kaihara is similar in feel as it does have some crunchiness to it. It is a nice thick substantial material but i think it feels great. There is some puffiness in the pics but it will loosen up with wear and drape better. The fabric was exactly what I was hoping for. The color is beautiful, it is very dark and looks almost black until you put it against something black.I have put it next to my IH black shirt in pics for comparison. I am wearing my Gustin Black2 jeans here also. I believe the material will look amazing with some fades in a year or so. The design looks great and workmanship is flawless as far as I can see. The stitching and cutting looks straight and very strong. Anything that looks misaligned just looks that way in picture. I noticed my IH shirt pockets look crooked in pictures. I like the design of the collar and I can button the chinstrap but will probably wear it open unless trying to keep warm. I love the double cuff snap option. You can see the selvedge line inside. My watch fits under the cuffs without any problems. The snaps seem to be a good quality and I like the tiger eye I picked. The front pockets are nice and even though no one will see the black/white striped lining it is a cool feature. I will show it off to people. ;) The flaps function perfectly and are not bulky feeling. I can't think of one thing to complain about. If the pockets were long enough to fit an average Iphone/Droid size that would be a plus but could maybe make the pocket look too long. Not sure about this. My IH shirt doesn't fit one either. Sizing is very important as most of us will not wear something with a bad fit. I do like a slim fit for my shirts. The shoulders, chest, arms and waist are spot on. So happy for that. I do wear most of my shirts tucked so I like an untucked shirt to be on the shorter size. A shirt this thick needs to be untucked in my opinion. This shirt is a little too long for my taste. I know many would be happy with the length. I will probably see what a warm soak will do but I could lose 1.5" on the front and 2.5" in the back. Overall this shirt is amazing regardless of price but with the actual price figured in the best deal out there. Thanks Lawless!! Great job. I have included a link with more detailed pictures. http://s258.photobucket.com/user/Ianthomasphotos/library/Lawless Western Shirt The color is hard to capture but I think these are close to in person.
Great fit. Doesn't look too long at all.
It just makes for a high contrast fade. Its not that it necessarily will fade faster but when it does it really pops
Expanding on this slightly, if you've got an indigo warp and white weft, when the warp threads start to fade they're going to contrast against both the non-faded parts of the indigo warp and the part of the white weft that shows through. If both the warp and weft are indigo, on the other hand, the fades are going to contrast against indigo only. With white contrasting against indigo + white in the former case vs. white contrasting against indigo only in the latter, you're going to get more visibility in the latter case even if both denims fade at the same rate.

Any chance of a caramel selvedge duck chino showing up at some point?
I think selvedge duck is such a popular fabric right now you almost have to sit at the fabric mills waiting for it to come of the machines. I have been looking for some for a bit so we will have it soon. The last time I was able to get some there was less than enough to make maybe 10 pairs of pants. We try to avoid doing that unless we can grab it for a great price
