Does a model/product that has been restocked for over four years (IH-526J-142ib) ever become ‘continuous production’ rather than ‘seasonal or limited run’?

I always thought that meant ‘when it’s gone it’s gone’? Just trying to figure out the parameters of the language used, because it genuinely makes a difference to purchasing priorities, especially with so much fire being dropped. I’m sure I’m not the only one. Thanks.

in this instance, just human error

[Mister_Brue]

@Alex Ok cool; thanks for both answers.

Debating on removing the cargo pockets on my IH-714 black serge. Has anyone else done this on any of their IH cargo pants?

[Giles]

I’m sure they’ll be bar-tacked in places. I personally would not risk it

[sabergirl]

I think the construction of the pockets may also be integrated with the double knee. It’ll be hard to do without having reconstruct the pants completely

Only thing that bugs me about IH shirts is the gut crease. I made up the name. I've circled it in 2 pics. It looks like I have a big gut but it's just the crease from sitting. I imagine it goes away after washing a few times? The thicker the material the more pronounced the crease.

I always leave to bottom button open.

@endo I call it the Reuben, because @neph93 introduced me to this genius solution at the party

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago ...and what do you call it if you leave your jeans buttons undone.

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd the @Matt because it means that I don’t give a shit

[Matt]

True dat. I also never button or snap the bottom shirt button. I only unbutton the pants after a big meal. Or during if I’m in it to win it.

[Mister_Brue]

@chrisjohnnick Looks doable practically speaking, but as G says, be careful if there are any bar tacks.

Personally I wouldn’t hesitate, but I do have some experience. A ‘quick unpick’ may be handy if you decide to go for it.

Can’t speak for what they’d look like though.

Hello buddies. I received an IHB-11-NAT today and absolutely love it! The crew was nice enough to trim an XL to a L for me. Thanks @Bailey! My question is does anyone have any ideas as to what I could potentially do with this extra leather trim? Or how to make something out of it? It's a pretty cool and gorgeous piece and I would love to use it.

[GraemeE]

@Oaktavia could be a killer key fob or luggage tag if you did some trimming and stitching

[Jett129]

@Oaktavia I think you also might be able to paint it,possibly using the holes as eyes

I was thinking this too. Just not sure how to go about it. I'll need to get some leather tools I think.

[Jett129]

@Oaktavia One of the guys on here is an incredible leather craftsman. ZeeBee Leather. @seawolf He would be a good person to talk to about tools etc.

[seawolf]

@Jett129 You rang? And thank you for the kind words!

[Jett129]

@seawolf Yes I did and how are you. If you scroll up one of the guys has a piece of a leather belt that he wants to do something with,and I thought of you.
