Pipeline Triple Works…...

[ronaldlsh]

Giles had this package sent to me from Tokyo by Haraki-san. They came in yesterday…

Package that took only 1 day to arrive in Singapore.

SAMPLE?! I must be the luckiest bastard in the world to have a IH sample sent to my house, and having to see it even before G.

I almost, almost resisted. But in the end, I gave up, and with Giles' request for lots of photos, I decided to…..

I did what I can, but lighting and colors are pretty off. I did a bit of tweaking in the com, and tried to get the colors as close as possible.

I think this colours in this photo are the closest to the true colour of the shirt.

I really really love the Triple Works Tag.

I hope I do justice to the beautiful shirt with the photos.

Ron,  Mmmmmm, can't wait to play with that.  See you and it tomorrow…..

Some Flannels for Spring/Summer 2012…....

A, B, C & D likely to be for long sleeved works shirts
E, F, G, H likely to be for short sleeved work shirts

waiting on A & B

[urbanwoodsman]

Don't know if it's been mentioned and I would assume it's still unknown but what does anyone think the cost will be of the long sleeved Triple Works flannels? I would assume lower than the Iron Heart spring weight flannels?

[Giles]

The only cost differentiator is the cost of the fabric and the ease of the sewing.  As a general rule, the heavier the fabric, the more it costs and the harder it is to sew.

If the TW fabric weighs the same as the iH fabric, the cost and therefore the price is likely to be the same.

Both ranges are made to the same quality in the same factories.  TW is not an entry level/lower cost/lower quality product, it just has a different design philosophy.

that denim shirt with that high contrasting stiching….mmmm. I just might want that.

[Giles]

8oz of indigo loveliness, but I bet it punches above its weight.  I'll know tomorrow (if I can pry it out of Ronalds mitts)…....

I own the lined one and really love it!…so i am going to buy this one too!

[ronaldlsh]

I wish the sample is a size that i can try buttoning. L is way toooo small.

And lovely avatar u have there Giles.

[Finn666]

[TinMan]

I really really love this unlined 49. must have!!!

[TinMan]

can not stop looking at this lovely denim shirt….. want it now

[GimpKid]

Are there any TW jeans in the works aside from the 634 cut?

[Giles]

There are, but to be honest, I can't really remember what.  I'm just sitting here waiting to be surprised…..

Sweet shit.

[Giles]

Washed it last night so that I can d a shrink test on it….

[MikeC]

I'm super pumped for all of the TW lineup this Spring. I'm jumping on a ton of it, as it starts to trickle in. Are all of these TW shirts, the first TW shirts Hararki has released under the TW name?

-As a side note, is there a biography page or something about the master, Haraki-San? And what did Works Inc do prior to IH?  I know they've been around for 25 years and I'd love to see some OG vintage Works Inc gear. I love this brand!!!!

[Giles]

MikeC.  I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Haraki has made very little of the fabric for most of the first TW shirts, so we have not got enough to make anything over XL (yeah, I'm pissed too..).

The denim western that I specced (pic above) will be going up to XXXL.

Hopefully once the TW line gets moving, then all stuff will come in sizes up to XXXL.

The only other TW shirts I have seen have been samples that never made it into production.

Paula is working on a biography/history at the moment…..
