    Don’t mean for this thread to be a downer, rather a place for some of you folks that have been around a long time to share stories about “the one that got away”. Maybe you sold it, lost it, outgrew it, ruined it or never had the chance to even have it. I missed out on some loombreakers (sincere congrats to @goosehd) last week and that’s what made me think there are probably a lot of stories out there about the one that got away. Let’s hear ‘em!

      I just sold my 18oz indigo/indigo Type II after finally accepting the fact that it was too small for me. My wife bought it for me for Xmas a few years ago and it had some sentimental value but alas, it just hung in my closet most days. That was the best looking jacket IH had to offer IMO and I hope to find one in 44 or even 46 one day. Cheers @Heavy_blue the new owner once it lands.

          @Oaktavia Everything in that 18oz is killer. At least you can live vicariously through @Heavy_blue til you score the right size.

            Not buying the IHM-20 when I had the chance 😕

            Perhaps my facial expression 5 years ago was foreshadowing

              @Kasi I hear “Beatle Buster” a lot around here. Seems like a prime cut to resurrect

                      I bought the XHS 25 oz. vest in size XXL because I was going strictly on P2P and didn't know how to correctly size it. I wore the crap out of it, but after a couple years I had to admit it was a size or 2 too large and I sold it. I would love to own one in a large now.

                        You hear it from a few vociferous people, it's the same for the IH-463S. A few people repeatedly asking us to remake them again because they would sell like crack, is not a good enough reason to do it. We stopped making them for a reason. Yeah, times change, so never say never though.......

                        If we made things solely because we counted up the number of times we had been asked, we'd be making loads of chambray pyjamas, then we'd realise that it was actually only @endo asking 🤣

                          Beatle Busters sadly will not return. They were too close to other existing cuts and over saturated the fit line. Believe me, if there were a chance I’d be at the front of the movement. Fortunately I have a new pair of 18 oz raw that should let me a while as well as my 21 oz that are still goin strong.

                          I sold a lot of great stuff before we left Baltimore. Loom Breakers, printed Ts, 86, 87, 88, purple 101 etc, etc. No time for regrets though. There’s always merging new around the corner. Except maybe the 87 and LBs. I might have a little regret for those.

                            sorry but mine was a 666UHR first run, not a Beatle buster..

                              My fave pair of IHs I've owned is the (iirc?) 666s — the 18oz raw denim that was replaced by the current 18oz vintage. So comfortable, such cool fades. Unfortunately it was at the beginning of my IH trip and I didn't really know my ass from a hole in the ground, so I ended up getting a pair one size too small. I can barely fit into them these days and didn't get to get as much wear out of them as I'd like, so I'd say my biggest regret is not having a pair of those in a good size to properly enjoy. C'est la vie though, got plenty of other great pairs of IH to love 🙂

                                  Sold my Indigo cord and 21oz type 3 and slub type 2 because I can never get on with the cuffs- too tight if buttoned and too loose unbuttoned. The indigo cord is the fabric I miss most, so soft.

                                    ahh yes. I got loss in the conversation when they mentioned Beatle busters..

                                    @SKT been awhile since I've worn them. good time to take it out soon I reckon..

                                          bit hard to wear this now in sunny Singapore, even with the A/C on..
