What color do you have in mind? And would this be a super heavy?

G, thanks for your patience in explaining the reality. It's interesting to hear about how the brand works from the inside. In my mind it's like "while we're making a bunch of red and black shirts, let's just make some blue and black ones as well! Why not?" Haha.
If we were a "normal" brand perhaps. But we design all the fabric we use ourselves, we then have to get it made. We don't just stroll down to the mill and pick up what looks nice. We used to for shirting and boy was it a lot easier, but shirts appeared by other brands made out of the same fabric, H decided there and then that this was unacceptable, so we design all our own now. It adds complication, takes up a lot of Harakis bandwidth, takes time and calls for large minimum quantities. But the up side is, the fabrics are unique to us…..

And we love IH for this dedication. It makes everything you release that much more special.

So I guess I should pick up one of those herringbone flannels before they're gone gone gone….
If you don't you'll have to find one on the secondary market, because we won't make again….

Grey/Purple. And yes super heavy…....I need 2.5 months to get the fabric made and another 1.5 months to get the shirts made up. That would make a February release........

Super heavy, grey/purple. Can I fill the form?
