              I am wondering if I wash my IHSH-23 Purp, can I get it to be more muted like this??? The other purple is just too bright for me. I like how the Blue in this version is more dominant than the Purple…

                I see what you say, Lando. I like both colors. However, I doubt you can mute down the purple in the new version to be a pale blue like the one you posted. That's quite a difference. Maybe after washing it a 100 times. But then it would probably be a rag anyway.

                  still thinking it's going to be way more white looking in person.

                      I was on the fence about it not only because I felt like it would be really popular but also because I liked the more muted color of the purple in the first picture. Against my better judgment, I told G to put one in my pile. I am now having a new feeling about the shirt, I want it!!! I might wait a little while to get it as there is other stuff I NEED! It would be hilarious to all wear purple and orange IH stuff to send to Haraki-San!

                          Hahaha! I am sure I will have no problem. I feel like I could spot any one of you in a crowd. I will look for the super stylish girl with the IH duffel and the new haircut.  😉

                            These shipped from Hachioji yesterday.  I realised last night, that bloody Easter may screw delivery time up.  Normally, I would expect them to be here Thurs (fingers crossed) or Fri, but Fri and Mon are holidays here, so the shipment may get delayed until next week.  BUMMER.

                                I am super excited to hear they are in the mail…I seriously cannot wait to see that color combo with my own eyes..which reminds me - been meaning to ask you - how does Haraki-san go about production - picking fabrics and stuff..or does he create those designs himself ?

                                  Most of the fabrics Haraki makes stuff out of, he designs from the ground up.  So this is how it happens:

                                  He'll come up with a concept.
                                  He'll mail me swatches and a design and he'll allow me to modify (a little)
                                  I tell my retailers what is being made
                                  I take pre-orders
                                  I'll add to the above what I think I need
                                  I tell Haraki the final number
                                  He then tells the mill how much material he needs
                                  The stuff is made
                                  Stop

                                  At this point, there is usually little chance of a re run.

                                      So. I have this nascent concept, that on the new webiste, stuff that is seriously limited will be tagged "endangered".  I'm bored of saying "seriously limited, get in now or you will be disappointed".  But the fact is, that is the truth.  So when you see "endangered, I mean it….G

                                        Seriously! I have noticed that the construction of every other pair of denim I own that is NOT produced by IH is sub par in comparison. Threading seems to fall out of my FH, DB, and TSL's. The belt loops are notorious in my collection for this (Not the case with any of my IH's).

                                          I'm not sure if this is possible from a web design and technical standpoint in your case but I've seen web retailers that actually have a countdown of products available. I think that is very useful and would be a little less sensationalist but possibly more effective in marketing terms than just calling a piece "endangered".

                                            I agree with that feature if it is available! I love being able to see the live stock of a store. The only problem is if it is not constantly/ automatically updated it becomes more of a nuisance than it is worth. I am assuming that this would be a bit more complicated because sometimes Haraki-San has stuff tucked away that G ends up scoring for us. I am also not sure that Haraki-San would be into having the actual inventory availability that accessible to the public. I could be wrong though. Maybe I am over thinking the concept and that G could just do it for the stock at "The Castle" and that the special requests/ finds from Japan could be reserved for those people who are on here and actually research what they are spending their money on? Just my $0.02…

                                            Sorry to continue going off topic!
