IHD-01 - Special G Denim Version

[dcg]

@Giles:

@dcg:

I don't know if other folks care about those particular measurements, but I'd love to see them become standard.

Thanks for the suggestion.  We may try and start doing this, but just on stuff  that comes in fron now…..

Very cool to hear; would be much appreciated!

@derivative666:

Extra measurements would be great. Tapering for us larger guys is sometimes scary.

Hey, that just means the work shirts are perfect for you

[entropy kid]

If I'm an XXL in IHSH-07 and -35 and both are a little bit snug, will I be OK with an XXL for the od as well?

[Giles]

They are virtually the same size…..

So will be snug too.  If you wanting to wear this over another shirt, you want to consider XXXL…

[entropy kid]

Translates to: "If you want to use the side pockets you better size up!!!!

Order placed for an XXXL. Thank you sir!

[Giles]

EK,  Thanks, missed Mr UPSman today, I'll see if we can get it on EMS…..

[entropy kid]

Should come today 
Maybe a stupid question, but I never owned an od item: do I need to soak?

[Giles]

nope, put it straight on and wear…..

[entropy kid]

G., I'm glad I asked for sizing advice. I definitely would not have wanted this one to fit to tight.
Some teaser pics after 2 days of wear because this thread needs more pics…

I have high hopes for this shirt.

OD version is growing on me.

Looking for a little input…

I'm trying to decide between this and the new Duck Type III.  I'll be wearing it 6 days a week over a T-shirt for work. I keep going back and forth and every time I see a new update pic, I change my mind...

Any thoughts?  Appreciate any feedback...

My opinion, IHD-01. The denim is special, it will age over time and you will appreciate the slow but steady change.

[babyknight]

I agree with Jaco.  Both look like amazing pieces but the IHD-01 is the one I would want to be wearing 6 days a week and seeing that evo over time.  I would have picked one up myself but already had a couple of similar things in my wardrobe.

[entropy kid]

This one is it for me  for the time being. I have a Filson tincloth trucker which is reasonably close to the duck jacket and I really like to wear it outside. The IHD-01 now will stay on my back all day long since it can be worn indoors as well. I feel stupid running around in the office/workshop wearing a jacket.

IHD-01od.  I guess about 3 months wear, 1 wash

[Megatron1505]

That is coming along beautifully G 

Beats, looking good 

[jacoavlu]

so G you wearing both versions OD and indigo?

[Giles]

Yes (well actually I am wearing the 18oz indigo sample, not the 13.5oz production version) , and a Duck type III and a IH-526BJ.  Mme B getting a bit pissed off with the number of chair backs that are draped with my jackets…...

[Beatle]

poor Paula…

Well…if you ever want to sell that 180z sample to help pay for retirement one day, just let us--me--know.
