@Alex
I know but have to be sensible house move job loss for the wife new private school for the boy all within the last 3 months has taken its toll
I am determined however to make things work
Failing that the credit card will have to make a rare appearance that I try to avoid using

But I fear this will be the last flannel of the year

Oh crumbs. This is the other one I wanted. Already got the blue...

Can't wait!

Where was there a SHF available in blue? A collab with someone or something?

I missed any posts related to that but would love to check it out if there were any left.

The blue UHF @EdH

This one dropping late puts it on my radar.

[Alex]

Only this and the IHH collab for SHF this year

[EdH]

Thanks both. Most of my stuff is blue or indigo anyway. XD

Bummer it's going to be late. December and January are always expensive for me, with Xmas, Mrs H's birthday, and now Baby H's birthday. I'll have to put some extra £ away between now and then.

Apologies... I was referring to the UHF from this season's drop:

a later release for this one means I can probably buy the brown UHF, the green Ombre, and the grey SHF this year. just gotta find a way to hide them from the fiancee......

[Matt]

Tell her you bought them used for half the price. Go on and on about what an amazing deal you got. It softens the blow.

[EdH]

I always get Mrs H to guess numbers and say "higher/lower" until she gets to the number. She has learned to start high.

[SKT]

@EdH This sounds like a dangerous game.

[IrishHeart]

@EdH are you mad?

[popvulture]

God, dangerous indeed. My girlfriend gets super squeamish spending over $100 on a piece of clothing — every time she expresses this, I'm full of this massive internal

[WhiskeySandwich]

@popvulture yup. THIS. ^

[WhiskeySandwich]

My wife knows that when I get into stuff, I go full tilt though. If she asks "how much?" I generally say "you don't wanna know." And we're all good as long as our bills get paid and the kids are fed and clothed.

[EdH]

Like I say, she used to underestimate. Now that she has learned the rough prices of IH stuff, she starts higher, and then is pleasantly surprised when I say "lower" three or four times in a row. It sounds insane, I know, but this method has anchored her expectations appropriately.

Having said that, my Crown Northampton cordovan leather trainers should arrive tomorrow, and I dread to think what she'll guess there... I'm probably going to have to explain that one...

[Matt]

It could be worse. After listening to the most recent podcast I looked at that shop’s website and couldn’t believe it. Makes IH look like a bargain.

[popvulture]

@Matt I've thought the same thing about that shop many times before, and didn't even realize they were the most recent podcast. Though pricey, can't say they haven't piqued my interest — I'd like to check out some of their jeans in person next time I'm in LA.

[Matt]

If it’s as good as or better than IH I don’t want to know.
