Been waiting on these for what feels like forever! My 8301S were my favorite jeans, but after a certain age and a kid for some reason they don't really fit anymore. Haha

Being from the metro Atlanta, GA area, my all time favorite beer is Sweetwater 420. Really the only beer I’ll get when I go out.

Became a member of the Brotherhood today. These will definitely get their fair share of wear!

@neph93:

Looks ace. A hot wash will take it in some, but personally, I don’t think you need it.

Thanks, I appreciate it, bud! The wife likes the fit too, so I recon that counts for something 

First day on site with my newly acquired Wabash western. Felt kinda weird taking a picture of myself  Y’all think the fit is okay? Feels a little bigger than what I’m used to. 6’2” & 190lbs, wearing an XL

@jordanscollected:

wait for a restock @an_apple_soda for sure. The 62 runs a bit big in sizing to start with, especially in body length. Also, if you are like me in that you wash a shirt only when it starts to smell or look dirty (every 10+ wears), you will get some stretching and loosening of the material which will only hurt you ability to bring down the size to what you want.

I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the XXL, smh, lol. The measurements he provided (with pics) looked on the smaller end of the XXL chart. I got it for a killer price, tho, & just figured I could always bring it to the marketplace if it doesn’t work for me & buy on the restock.

I appreciate [mention]neph93 [/mention]! I’m still on the fence about the one I found. I may just wait for the restock, whenever that maybe. I feel like a L or XL would fit me best, but the one I found is an XXL [emoji28]

[mention]Adero [/mention] It does, thanks!

Thanks for posting that @[mention]Adero [/mention] . I’ve been contemplating buying a used one (all I can find, atm), that’s a size too big. So, this helped put shrinkage into perspective. US machines do not have a temp setting like yours; is 60 degrees Celsius hot?

Keep it up with the evo pics! It gives me something to look forward to, as I sit here patiently waiting for a size large to pop up on restock or MP.

@sabergirl:

This denim will be totally different. It has black threads incorporated in the fabric, whereas the other is over dyed black.

Thanks, I appreciate the explanation! I just need to look into what is what as far as construction goes, lol. I usually just go with what I’m drawn to aesthetically, and do not pay much attention as to why.

Such as with this denim I just saw “Black” & “Indigo”, which made me think of my jacket.

Still very intrigued by this pair & will probably add it to the collection, as I really like unique and different denim.

Would this denim be similar to the SExIH07IIIBK2 (aside from weight)?

Sorry if a dumb question, I have the jacket, but not completely familiar with dyes and such.

Curious if there is some kind of schedule to restocks? Pretty sure I need a 32 (same size as my 888S-21), and they’re sold out.

I wear my 8301s everyday for work & want to replace them with a pair of 888s. Love the fit!

EDIT: Disregard. Just gonna keep an eye out for the restock in 32. They’ll pop up eventually!

@Giles:

The best I can do is:

555 - Soon
666 - Before Xmas
634 - Before Xmas
777 - After Xmas
888 - After Xmas

Good deal. The last thing I needed was to spend more money before Christmas [emoji28]. +1 for the 888

@Giles:

Should be here this week, live sometime next….

Is it safe to assume they will come in waves? Like different cuts at different release dates?

If so, do you have an idea of a schedule (666 - this week, 888 - next month, ect.)?

@the246guy:

This is the best shirt from IH that I have ever had. I have two pieces of this that I wear in rotation.

How had the color held up over the months of owning? I saw the side by side you did, but wasn’t sure if there was much change since then.

@Giles:

Never say never, but generally, if something goes into the outlet, it will not be made again.  There are a few left in Japan in XS-M….

I’ll take another gander at the medium measurements, but I’d honestly probably need a large. I appreciate that info tho!

How does one go about picking something up from Japan? Just via PM with you?

@Giles:

I just double checked all branches in Japan, no L's available…...

I'm thinking 21.7 is borderline, there is no real scope for shrinkage (which may happen)......

@Giles, I saw the 246 made it’s way into the outlet; does that mean there will be no more production on this model?

I wish that last size 32 would sell so I could quit almost checking out [emoji28]. I’ve decided to hold off on these, and just wait for the regular cuts of the slub denim. Excited to see how these age tho!

Is there a way to include a note saying “Congratulations on your WIN!”? My wife may or may not kill me for buying 2 pair in a week. [emoji28]
