@knappman74 good news! Always trust @Graham to sort you out.

@Alex said in IH-822-IND - Double Knee 21oz Selvedge Denim Engineer's Pants - Indigo:

@HalfPastNever maybe they have some old ones, maybe they are fake? Nothing to do with us.

@HalfPastNever buy from where you want, but I'm confused as to how the above answer straight from the man in charge, is "dancing around the question". Seems fairly clear and concise to me.

One thing I can assure you of is that nothing releases early in Japan. If the new batch were ready now, they'd be on sale here.

@flannel-slut i saw them in photo’s before they were sent and the warmth of them was obvious already, but having them in hand is a whole new paradigm. They are not just warm, beautiful images but the medium and surface used makes them truly wonderful objects. There is a tactile element to this work that makes them far more than skillfully painted images.

@Oaktavia

One of the people I was really looking forward to meeting irl at the recent IH party was the beardy dank magus himself @Oaktavia.

It was an absolute pleasure to talk to him and Amanda, and on the last day I got to ask him a personal favour. I have recently moved to a new apartment and after the ups and downs of the last few years own very little art of my own. The idea of having something @Oaktavia had painted had been with me for a while, so I was very happy to feel comfortable enough to bring it up.

@oaktavia got in touch a few days after the party and we worked things out in short time. So I am now the proud owner of two original Orrence’s, and that makes me so fucking happy. Updates to come when they are hung.

@ARNC I feel like my rather shabby attendance here these last years has enabled you to blame me for “inspiring” your purchases more than once. It’s a thin excuse mate. But I applaud you for it as long as it works for you.

(Bloody great shirt)

@mattbags85 shout out for the 777. The 555 goes hard from thigh to knee. 777 is the happy medium between the 888 and 555, and benefits from a slightly more more fitted too block than both.

Lets. Go.

It’ll try and book a table at the New Bengal. Last time I did this it was tricky as they where hesitant about a large group. I’ll let you all know how it goes.

Awesome! Happy to hear there are people around. @scooter exactly what I was thinking mate.

I’ll be getting into Gosport around 1700 on the Thursday. Any other early birds? We could book a place to eat if there are. Let me know.

@M800sct1 can confirm that the split steer does just fine in rain. Despite the similar aesthetics, it isn’t suede.

As for sizing I tried both. I’m a solid XL in shirts and went with XL in the jacket. Could have done an L but would have been restricted to a thin layer under.

@MrSavage IH did some 21oz wabash a few years back essentially in the 634 cut. And there have been work pant iterations in black wabash earlier. No help now, but reason to hope that it could happen again.

Tenth anniversary as a member of this forum rounded today. Goddamn. Ten years…

@bwscott wow… the brown one isn’t even sateen, it’s 17oz duck

@Denimmacdaily it was a Self Edge exclusive, small batch run. You would have to reach out to them to find out if there are plans for more.

@markus_berlin_ having been to a few, I can confirm there is normally beer and food. As long as @Alex has that in hand, we’ll be good I think.

Spotted on the streets of Xàlo today in southern Spain…

@Giles that is wonderful. Excellent contrasts. I need too straps for each of my cheap ass but much loved Seiko’s. I think @Scasi will
be the man for the job. Let’s talk tomorrow @AdamJ

Please do @AdamJ and thanks @Alex
