Where does everyone live?

@PdxRoman:

Hello everyone I am checking in from Portland Oregon.
I’m fairly new to the heavy weight denim world. My first purchase was back in October 2020. I picked up the 21oz 888 sbg. Hands down my favorite pair of jeans I own. I have worn them every day. Until I pulled the trigger on the 25oz 555 xhsbb. So I have two jeans in rotation now.
IH customer service is hands down the best. This community has a wealth of knowledge. Reading all the treads really helped me out.

Welcome dude, and good choice on the XHSBB. I have had my eye on those.

Hi all!  Coming in from the PNW same as the last poster.  Brand new to raw and/or selvage denim so looking to learn a lot from everyone here!  Working on building up a wardrobe of durable and traditionally made clothes and accessories.  Recently got some White’s MP boots in brown Chromexcel (which are incredible) and thought I’d try to find its equivalent in jeans.  Found my way to IH and am excited to order my first pair in the next few weeks!

@Brock who's also from PNW, does work-wear better than anyone I know…..

Wow! Quite the compliment [mention]Giles [/mention] thank you.

[mention]kevlar397 [/mention] welcome! You can’t go wrong with anything IH… if you’re looking to find some local workwear, check out Ship John, Grease point workwear, Red clouds collective and Wesco.

AHEM… @spitfiredealer and @RoxRocks86 also do a really good job…

[Giles]

I know.

When the circumstances present themselves, I will say exactly the same thing about them, I am nothing if not fair…..

[goosehd]

Even the Norwegian wanker does a good job, once in a while….

[Giles]

There are limits beyond which I will not bend the truth….

@goosehd @Giles This is no way to talk about @hajduk. Poor guy…

@neph93 Well played.

@neph93 Well played.   

The irony being that Hajduk is about as Norwegian as I am [emoji1]

[goosehd]

I’m an expat myself.  US to Canada.  @neph93 UK to Norway? @hajduk France to Norway?

Seems like there are quite a few of us on the forum.  I could easily rhyme off a handful.

[hajduk]

Yes! From Marseille to Oslo![emoji849][emoji38][emoji3577]

Hey y’all. New Yorker turned Minnesotan here. Finally found purple rain uhf so I thought it was time to hop on here! Recently purchased the IHSH-277-IND direct and the IHSH-287-TUR from SOP.

Measurements & current pieces:
22.5-23” chest and 18.5-19.25” shoulders I’m normally stuck dwelling between xl-xxl within IHSH’s.
I’m in super tight 34w 888’s but 36’s make me recall my jnco days. Overall though 888’s are my fav fit. 777’s and 555’s 36’s don’t get me enough room for my thunder thighs.

I also have the cord jackets in indigo, black & beige. Tight xl’s/42 also as xxl too long and big in the shoulders for me. The only other piece I have is the ihsh-247-red.

Hope y’all are doing as well as you can in these weird but resilient times!

Best,
Dans

In addition to IH, Freenote is my go to for wovens and I tend to mix in RGT and a fun SW-typ vest from Stevenson.
