Yeah Matt,
it’ll be interesting to see the change in her appearance as she grows out of her puppy stage.

Thanks,it’s one of the smaller Panerai produced that still seems oversized on my skinny wrist !

Re: sanforised jacket RRL
I picked up this Type 1 jacket a year or two ago from the RRL Soho store.It’s a nice Japanese raw denim,clearly labeled as being sanforised.MSRP. was $690.00.
My buying experience was mixed if I’m honest.
The jacket was the only one on display,a Medium size.with only the price tag present.
I asked the sales rep if it was sanforised,to which he replied “what do you mean”?
After further investigation someone else was able to confirm it was,however he wasn’t sure that the jacket was for sale as another employee was considering buying it !
I found this to be rude and unprofessional.
The employee confirmed that he was going to buy it,so I thought I was shit out of luck.
Further enquiries found another one in California,which they shipped to my home.
The fit was loose and boxy enough to accommodate a hooded sweatshirt underneath,but the arms were somewhat long.I was considering getting the sleeves shortened,but before I bit the bullet,I chose to give it a hot wash “just in case”
Well,would you believe it,it shrunk.Actually it shrunk about an inch in sleeve length,which was exactly what I wanted.However the rest of the jacket also shrunk relatively,to the point that it’s too tight to use a sweatshirt.
Otherwise with a tee shirt it’s ideal.
So just a word caution really,and a slight bad taste I was left with at RRL.

888 in White medium weight would be welcome ….

I think the very first post in this thread describes them as such.

When these were described as “super slim cut” I totally ignored them.
My only prior experience with IH has been with the 1955S,of which I invested in five pairs.
It was sheer luck that I wanted some OD jeans that I did a comparison with the 1955/888’s and discovered just hot close they are,and made the gamble on a pair a little less risky.
I was able to snatch a pair of almost new for a bargain price and am pleasantly surprised..
Let that be a lesson..don’t dismiss them without a second look.Or equally the 1955s !
