Still a favourite.

I recently bought a fixer-upper house in Sydney and nearly all my budget is going into doing the renovation the right way. Haven't bought anything beyond a couple tees in the last 8 months or so because my closet is already so full of amazing IH pieces. But, I saw this in my inbox this morning and it was 100% me, so I grabbed one. Guess I can save money on lighting somewhere to justify it.

Why isn't this shirt more popular? I don't think there's even competition for me that this is my favorite IH denim shirt. I wore it hiking Angel's Landing today with my 18 oz 555s. Sorry, the ensemble didn't make it up Observation Point as well, as that was more of a speed-oriented running outing.

Oops. Never posted pics. Really like this one:

Bonus cat to match the cat hat (he has a movement disorder, hence the odd looking leg stance):

Got it; love it. Pics to come. This will work well for me to dress up what is frequently perhaps an overly casual look while working at a university in a hot, very humid environment (a lot of 6.5 and 7.5 oz tees with shorts).

Just grabbed the last small and quite like it. The primary use aside from a warm winter jacket will be high altitude winter camping, and I wanted a jacket that will function but also look good. I'm curious about the fabric though. Pertex and eVent are competing brands, but both are stated. It appears to be eVent based on tags, but Pertex Shield is named in a few places. My impression is that IH switched from Pertex Shield to of of the event DV fabrics (my older IHJ-11, for example, has a Pertex Shield tag where this has the eVent waterproof tag). Am I misunderstanding something? Which specific eVent one is it this, btw?

Cheesing it up:

Some more wear…

I've had this for ~3 1/2 years now. It's probably been worn about 150-175 times in that time and hasn't been washed yet. Looks good so far, but still has a looooong way to go!

Cool, thanks. It looks like the fabric section online still says Pertex, btw.

Wore this to Oktoberfest today. Don't worry; some poor-quality lederhosen are coming tomorrow. 

Thanks @Giles. I'm very happy with it.

Saw this one in the catalogue today when receiving my indigo sashiko blazer. Beautiful! This is my favourite of the upcoming season!

This is starting to get some pretty cool fading. 

Yeah, yeah, I say this about most of the stuff IH makes, but damn is this a great one, and I'm glad I bought it. Fabric is super awesome, and seeing it up close in person is really neat. Fit is money. I like how slim the shirting I've gotten this year has been. Keep up the good work, guys! Better pics to come!

A few weeks of wear, and I'm certainly not complaining about the direction this is going…

Worn under my new 18 oz overdyed cpo. Love this combo.
