      Simon, you made me blush.

      But seriously, I try and treat each and every one of you in a way that I would like to be treated myself.

      Sometimes I fail and beat myself up, but on the whole I try to make the parting with your hard-earned as nice an experience as possible.

          I guess it was 2 days later, Giles mailed me, that he has found an XXXL in the USA. (EEEEEK - what the heck? He really searched for this shirt - only for me ! Even though i havn´t asked about that. Seriously, how great is that ?)

          Simon Q. I agree with you on the level of customer service that Mr. G$$$ exhibits.  I have a similar story that gets really complicated, so I won't bother to bore anyone with the details of.

          Let's just say I co-sign completly.

              In danger of this turning into a baby oil bespattered session, I would like to third this, for a similarly convoluted but massively satisfactory piece of customer service.

                    I've been waiting a long time for this one.

                    My thoughts: I'm happy the material is not excessively stiff.  It is softer than I expected and much softer than my Superblack Rider jacket (which sometimes chafes my wrists).  Is the material used in this version of the IHSH-08 softer than that used in the previous release, similar to how the current Superblack jeans are softer than the previous model?

                    The snaps are larger than any other IH shirt but yet are easier to pop open.  There is also a snap instead of a top button.  I've always though of the top button as the Achilles' heel of Ironheat and would like to see top snaps on other shirts as well.

                    I really like the cut, especially the slim shoulders.  I find it similar to older models of IH shirts, such as the IHSH-07, and much prefer it to the cut of the most recent shirts, such as IHSH-22 and IHSH-23.  The cuffs on this shirt are significantly larger than other shirts, even heavy ones such as the IHSH-20.  I have skinny wrists and therefore prefer a small cuff, but this is just a minor detail which I'm not too concerned about.  I got a size Medium, as I do in all IH shirts.

                    This shirt has already taken its place among my favorites.  It's unique, heavy yet supple, and has a great cut.  I can't ask for more than that.

                      Nice pic Dr Pat.

                      The reason that we have a button at the collar rather than a snap on our shirts is that if you have any sort of beard then getting it caught in a snap is super-painful.

                        G, did this one come with a snap because pf the weight? I also prefer the snaps all the way to the top but then again, I don't have a beard. Any possibility of getting the option to have snaps instead of buttons? Also, how easy would it be to apply a few on my own? If it was possible could I request some snaps? If not I understand and can deal with whatever Haraki decides upon.

                          This one came with a snap because it is a sort of shirt/jacket crossover.

                          Options too difficult to do, it complicates stuff too much in the work shop.

                          Unless you have the right machine/s, the snaps are really difficult to apply.

                            Customs have released at least 2 of the 3 boxes.  They are out for delivery to me today.  I will know exactly what is what in apoprox 2 hours.  But I think all is good.

                            Damn, we got a load of packing and shipping to do  today 🙂 🙂 🙂
