I think it’s a great idea giving fanatics of the brand like @Oaktavia samples to wear and showcase, I hope you guys continue with stuff like this - he’s doing a great job selling the sample lol.

RE: Heroes (Buying/ Selling/Trading)
Not sure where else to post this, but @Ross and @Graham have taken excellent care of me for two product related issues and deserve praise. The options they have gave me were well beyond what I was expecting and left me feeling very well taken care of. I’ll point out too that one of the issues wasn’t even an IH product and that they took far greater ownership of the problem than the manufacturer did. Besides the products themselves, the boys at IHUK are the other main reason I always come back for more. @Alex is a lucky man to have these two!

RE: Ship John
I agree with the previous comments regarding the lack of communication regarding the Sashiko shirts. I’m pretty over the constant delays and lack of clear communication and time
frames. The products are excellent and extremely well made but the associated headaches make me wonder sometimes.That said, I’m expecting I’ll be receiving an email confirming my G42 Wills in the next month or so - a full year ahead of schedule!

@Alex said in Fall/Winter 2023 - Coming Soon:
@Tago-Mago you haven't missed it. I am waiting for a forecast from the factories so I can try to make a more accurate delivery timeline than I would make up with the info I have at the moment. Will be done as soon as I can
Ok, someone’s gotta ask… FW24 information sometime in June? The SS collections don’t typically speak to me, very curious to see what my FW budget is going to look like lol.

RE: IHSH-380-IND - 12oz Dobby Cloth Work Shirt - Indigo
Yeah, I’m surprised these are still available too. I’m a huge Sashiko addict, managed to snag one of the Ship John shirts last month too! People don’t know how cool this stuff is.
The sizing mismatch actually worked in my favour as Work Shirts are almost always too baggy for me - this one is a tad shorter than I’d prefer but should be perfect otherwise. I’ve never had a Work Shirt before! Big thanks to @Graham for putting up with my stupidity this morning, who knew there is more than one currency?!

RE: IHWE-MRLOU-BLK - Wesco® - 10" Horsehide Pull-On "Mister Lou" Engineer Boot - Black
@Luijim78 the consensus on the Wesco Facebook group is that these should either be returned or considered seconds. I do somewhat agree, especially with the strap. I’m really not sure how someone would look at that and think it’s good to go at full MSRP, these are by no means cheap. They are lucky there is a backlog of work, brands like Viberg get slammed for stuff like this.

RE: Viberg
Had the good fortune of being able to make it to the sample sale here in Victoria today! Lots of offerings, not much service boot wise and in my sizing (10.5-11) there was a bit more limited selection. No crazy lines on the first day and no drama either. I managed to pick up a cool pair of Engineer Boots and a couple Chelsea’s. Really wanted some Service Boots but nothing in my size. The Engineer Boot has a couple dings, nothing noteworthy otherwise and I’m not planning on babying them either. Both the Chelsea’s are as new.
Can someone identify the leather in the black Chelsea’s and the Engineer boots? The young staff weren’t certain and I’ve struggled to find answers online, especially for the Chelsea’s. I think they are Black Calf? If so, they are a lot more wrinkled and loose looking leather than the photos online! Any help is greatly appreciated!

RE: Samples - New Products We Are Working On
Those OD flannels are awfully tempting, would be nice too knowing there won’t be any further shrinkage for us tall guys. Curious how they would fade over time.

RE: IHSH-333-OD - Ultra Heavy Flannel Blanket Check Western Shirt - Sax Blue Overdyed Black
@pechelman agreed, I think I’m going to pass for now. I really liked the samples, the OD on these are different and on the Red (the one I wanted) it didn’t speak to me the same as the sample. Sizing on UHF’s is always a little off for me too. Curious to see how these age!

RE: IHWE-MRLOU-BLK - Wesco® - 10" Horsehide Pull-On "Mister Lou" Engineer Boot - Black
Just picked mine up! Had to do some cleaning as the chocolate bar in the box exploded all over the boots, managed to get most of it off. Fit is pretty good, a little hard to slide into and the instep is a wee bit tight, I imagine this will stretch?
I did notice that the strap on the one boot is WAY softer and much different texture, you can stretch it with your fingers and it already stretched one of the holes out after a few minutes, is that normal?
Also, the stitching on the other boot is a little wavy and is very close together in a few areas around the toe, is this something to be concerned about from a longevity and rebuild perspective?

RE: IHSH-399-ORA - 12oz Slubby Heavy Flannel Check Western Shirt - Orange
I’m really curious what size @Alex and @AdamJ wear in these as they are both over 6’1 and similar weight to me.

RE: Ship John
I did, haven’t really worn it since picking it up - too hot. Looks like my Wills should arrive in the next couple days, exactly a year before it’s original ETA.

RE: Iron Heart Fall/Winter 2024 - Live Reveal Thursday 20th June at 1700BST
I’m tuning in for the UHF’s, the last season UHF’s didn’t quite speak to me and the arms were very long. The possibility of an orange UHF makes my trousers tense..
