IH Messenger Bags (IHE-01, IHE-02, IHE-05, IHE-07)

[DougNg]

I just gave my indigo it's second soapy soak on Monday after a banana exploded in there

It's looking great. Gonna take pics tomorrow afternoon

Also G, does the new Indigo version have the same flap details as the one that Doug and I both have?

Lando, theyre the IHE - 02 not IHE- 05

[LandoCal126 0]

Right on. I thought they looked a bit bigger and lighter. So the IHE-02 is not Selvedge correct, or is it? I will be getting the IHE-01 because I cannot get my hands on the IHE-07. Maybe I will cut it in half and have it sewn into two IHE-07's…

[Giles]

The Super Black is the IHE-01 and the Indigo is the IHE-02 (and yes, not selvedge).  I need to update the website…G

[ronaldlsh]

Will there be any IHE-05 coming in? And is it the same size as the IHE-01 and IHE-02?

[LandoCal126 0]

If I am correct, the IHE-01 & IHE02 > IHE-05 > IHE-07…

[Monstarice]

I couldn't help but pull the trigger on the Indigo one, Looking forward to delivery

[Giles]

The IHE-01 and 02 are exactly the same in all respects to the IHE-05.  The only difference between the 02 and the 05 is that the 05 uses 21oz selvedge denim whereas the 02 is 21oz non-selvedge.  G

G, can we get some measurements for the IHE-01 and IHE-02?

[Giles]

Do ya?

[ronaldlsh]

Thanks Giles, I've recieved the messenger. Delivery was really quick!

[DougNg]

Giles, I haven't forgotten to get back you on those measurements, I've just been super busy and can't find a #$%%&$'n ruler…

[febry634]

just recieved my IHE-01 today
thax G!

[LandoCal126 0]

So I finally got around to measuring my IHE-05 as I was skeptical that it was the same size as the newer IHE-01 and IHE-02. Low and behold, I was correct. Here are my measurements of my unwashed/ unsoaked IHE-05…

Width: 16.25"
Height: 14.25"
Depth: 8"

Looks like I may need an IHE-01 (SuperBlack) in my pile...

man these look awesome, gotta get one!

I received my messenger bag today along with the tee i ordered.
Thanks for the very quick service G!

I'm genuinely impressed by the bag, i expected something good but this thing is just so freakin' great!!
The denim feels incredibly nice and thick and i love the understated design and attention to details.
I oiled the patch with some Obenauf's LP and now it's good to go, tomorrow will be the first of a lot of wearing days.
I decided not to soak or wash it first, i really like the look and feel of raw unwashed denim, and since shrinking is not an issue with a bag i will wash it for the first time when it's dirty enough.
I made some detail pics which i will post later this week.

The fit of the tee is really spot on too, this is the first Japanese tee of which i really like the fit, it won't be my last IH tee for sure!
