they would go straight from the shipping box in a blue bag…. still want a army green one as well, btw...

I wonder if IH would explore nicer metals in the button fly buttons. Most of my IH buttons are some sort of grey-ish metal. Non-descript. There's an opportunity to add beauty in the details, maybe copper, or brass, or bronze.

[tatmantall]

^ I'm gonna have to respectively disagree. I am absolutely in love with IH donut style buttons and hope this feature never changes.

[Seth]

I agree with you tatman. I like the donut style too. I'm thinking more about the metal itself used to make them. Think of it this way - take your standard donut button and imagine it in polished stainless steel. Or, for example, if you had a SBG pair of jeans, you could make the buttons in anodized black titanium (that's a little crazy to manufacture, but you get the idea I'm toying with.)

[Chris]

Various models of Triple Works jeans have bronze colored buttons, as did a couple of the IH special editions.  You might consider a pair if you're really curious about that detail.

I'm a bit ambivalent on changing them, myself.  Unless we're talking real copper, pewter, brass or bronze; then it might be cool enough to really suck me in.

[Seth]

Hi Chris - yes, I have a pair of SExIH07 with blackened bronze buttons, and that inspired the idea. Why not go a little farther with real solid copper or brass?

[tatmantall]

I'm following you now I was thinking you meant more of a traditionsl style button but true metals could be nice on some models…

@Megatron1505:

21oz, flannel lined, denim hoody…......BOOM !!!!

Damn that would be sweet.

[FurattoHeddo]

• IH blanket lined chambray western (preferably soft, mock twist chambray fabric)…
• TW 8oz black denim work shirt  (i.e. the fabric used in IHSH-71) with non-contrast stitching and black buttons…

[Finkster]

A new release of "Ombre"- Flanell Shirts would be great.
Chicano style patterns on Western Shirts … and Work Shirts also.

[MikeC]

I'm dying for the IHSH-17 Revisited. I fully support FurattoHeddo's suggestion for a mock twist version of the IHSH-17. 3 or 4 colors (black, indigo, red and green).  Side pockets made out of some awesome fabric like the IHSH-78 hickory.

It won't happen.  I have nothing against Vans, but Haraki and I like to work with smaller companies that we admire for their craftsmanship, dedication, sense of pride and ethic.  When I can't speak personally to the person or people actually making the stuff I'm not interested…..

G,
possible a collab with MillReef in Japan?
few years ago SDA made some very nice models in collab with MillReef.

@Nerkg:

Heavy chambray swim trunks

chambray makes for horrible swim trunks, the fabric gets relatively heavy and stiff when wet and they dry very slowly

[Chris]

Yes, it truly sucks.  Dry time alone makes it worthless in my estimation.
