@Mister_Brue Post some pics! I’m surprised that I’m the only one so far. It’s such a beautiful jacket. It needs to be worn. Maybe folks are just waiting for the temps to cool down a bit more

[Mister_Brue]

@Fadez I know, it’s the best. I’ll get some pics soon, although my ‘photographer’ is away for a couple of weeks.

Weekend walk in the IHM-42-IND with the IHE-51-IND for company.

@Mister_Brue how many wears is it now,and is there any wear starting to happen it is one hell of a jacket.

@Mister_Brue Ahhhh, the one that got away...

You wear it well.

[Mister_Brue]

@gazza61 I’ve not been counting wears, because I am often only wearing it when out and about in the evenings, sometimes for only an hour, but I have worn it every day (when in country) since it started getting colder. It has softened up a great deal already.

I will do my best to upload some pictures of the wear so far, which is mostly on pocket annd placket edges etc. There is some cool roping beginning to develop too. It will be a slowish burner, but the natty indigo is just a gorgeous shade already.

@T4920 Just a fantastic piece. I was lucky enough to try on a returned jacket in Gosport in the Summer, so when the limited restock dropped, I jumped on it with the confidence that it was a good fit. This one will take some beating for sure.

@Mister_Brue I look foward seeing the progress of this one.

[Mister_Brue]

@gazza61 Me too.

[Mister_Brue]

@gazza61 I wear this quite a lot at the moment, so I tried to capture some of the (minor) evolution for you today. It’s all quite subtle really, but I can tell it’s going to look lovely in the future.

@Mister_Brue when they released this they said it will take a long time for it to evolve something in the way it was dyed I think it was diped at least 16 times.I agree with you after time it will become a real beauty.I am sure I saw it at the party and it had alot of fades,but you can see from your pics it is starting that process.enjoy its progress.

@Mister_Brue Looks great man! I’m wearing mine a little less lately. It’s been very very cold for a bit. This just doesn’t cut it in sub freezing temperatures. I need to take some photos when I can for a decent update.

[Mister_Brue]

@Fadez It’s cool though: since we seem to be wearing it at different times, we can tag-team the updates.
