@Giles @Alex
This time I don’t want to ask for anything but rather I will tell my prediction on what You guys will release.
Let me also assure You that no corporate cyber espionage was used in obtaining this kind of information but rather something that we in the security community call open source intelligence.
At the end of the year or early in 2024 IH will release new new stretch denim in 21 oz. This time it will be in black.
Have a great weekend!

[Alex]

Black stretch is in the works, but no timeline as yet

[Karol]

@Alex so there You have it - end of 2023 or start of 2024

[Alex]

Not necessarily....

[Karol]

It’s just a prediction of an old ️‍️

[Alex]

Pretty sure I mentioned it in the YouTube Live videos

[Karol]

I actually remember something about it. Need to watch it again, but my info is from Japan

[Karol]

@Alex
It was enjoyable rewatching SS23 and I conclude that you have not mentioned it. At 42:47 you answered question about SBG…
So maybe my info from Japan can be enhanced with this and that means that the new black stretch will come in SBG.
How am I doing so far?

[ARNC]

Have you ever contemplated another variant of the IHJ-49? A natural or copper brown could work, or something bolder?

[Alex]

We have some new leathers in the works for FW23, but nothing that's rough out. Maybe some new rough out Simmons Bolt options, though

[ARNC]

Thanks @Alex. Sounds interesting

Camo (classic woodland) 14oz hoodie and/crew neck.

Been loving the black and olive crewnecks and would so some shady things to see them in woodland camo.

@Alex
This might be a long shot, but how about something for us divers?
I love to put on my IHV-44-BLK on top of SANTI BZ400X between the dives.
For some reason I don’t like any of the after-dive attire that most of companies have.

[Alex]

@Karol what sort of thing would you suggest that fits a different need to your vest?

All the diving I've been doing since I stopped commercial, the only thing I need between dives is sun cream

[Bigdog]

How about putting the same double pocket that is on the IHJ-92 on the IHJ-75. The double pocket on the 92 is the best coat pocket I have had to date

@Alex
We should hang in Stockholm’s archipelago.

Not much sunscreen needed especially now but the colder the water the better visibility
There are really awesome wooden wrecks, preserved in really good condition as we don’t have shipworms.

I have not really crystallized the idea what the new clothing could be, was counting on your commercial diving background. I’m quite sure you have seen the real hard stuff and faced conditions I’m not really exposing myself to (job has to be done regardless right?).
It should be something that withstands salt water, you can easily rinse it and keeps the insulating properties even when wet.
Thininsulate in one of versions is a good filler, but I was recently reading about aerogels and that seems to be the future of insulation.

olive drab and black buffalo check or ombre flannel

[Alex]

@Bigdog I suggested this to Haraki in January but he didn't like the idea for some reason. He said something along the lines of the IHJ-75 being a riding jacket, so he didn't want the open pockets to fill up with water. I did not follow the logic. but I know when to stop pushing
