IHW-01 (Melton Wool shirt)

[Guest]

I don't think the Hermes orange is a patented color. Besides, if you are just a nanometer off on the colorimeter it's not technically the same color anymore. And it would be pretty hard to even get that close in the first place. Can't hurt trying. Now, if you put buttons with Hermes writing on it, you got a problem but not for the color, I'd say. I didn't buy an Hermes orange watchman's cap when I saw it in Venice this November. Could still beat myself for missing out on that. But I had just made so many other purchases, I couldn't really swing it.

got it Lando!

ahhh dunno …... the very idea of the melton in a different color. something significant or some shade so odd as to define the shirt itself...

a pytka blue
cerulian blue
that hermes orange...
a fly yellow
a flat grey

that list could just go on and on....

(what type of red?)

now lets not forget that we need to pair it with a HIGH contrast stitching color!

vanilla shirt with red stitching

baby blue with yellow

talk about OPTIONS!

gee, it just bagels the mind.

yup.

^i wasn't so sure about different colors of the melton
but high contrast stitching is defo intriguing.

Giles, anything you can do about obtaining an XL still?
I realized it would make a good spring jacket with a plain tee or whatever.

[Giles]

Fob,  I wish there was.  Got a few more L's today, but there are no XL's left anywhere.  In point of fact the gauging between the XL and the XXL is not that great.  I could just as easily wear an XXL ans I do my XL…G

DougNg says these Melton Wool Shirts are cut "big" to begin with.

Yea, an XL on me would've been a more jacket/overshirt type as i'm already XL in other IH. Now i'm debating whether to size down to L to work as a shirt or XXL for a real jacket. I'm guessing if i get XXL, i might even be able to wear the IHSH-08 underneath it.

such a dilemma…  ::)

[Giles]

Fob.  Dunno whether this helps or hinders.  XXL over T and a 12oz denim shirt..G

G is a machine, he has a true IH!

[Giles]

I'm bloody knackered  - my office is 5 flights of stairs from the back yard studio

[Dchill]

You got a good thing goin' G, I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say you're much appreciated.

That wool shirt looks dope btw.

[Giles]

I have been thinking everytime I climb the stairs - shit I need a proper studio next to my office.  Ah now there's a thought - Mrs G has the connecting office - wonder where she could go

[PETEROCK1]

thought i would share this with you guys, so i wore my ihw-01 today. i set it down on the chair next to my fiancee's purse. a few minutes later she then said "wow" nice heavy shirt… i like it. a few seconds roll by and then she yelled out loud "I KNEW IT"!

she the the inside iron heart tag 

i love this thing

that is all 

[hectic]

lol, my g/f wonders why Giles always has such incredibly good sale bargains….;)

[Toasted]

I have dreams of this piece in Dark Charcoal and or Light Grey with my IH-9634's and my IHJ-05. Dreams do come true… Just what I have heard.

[Beatle]

light gray…closing my eyes ..yeah - that would work

[Heavy Duty]

@Beatle:

It´s a jacket and a shirt - depending on the temperatures

Otherwise known as an overshirt
