Mikec, with the info

The Big Bros (a real beauty indeed and I liked the idea he came out with that one ) in the sample from denimbruin 2013 will imo not happen. I believe it will be a more modern cut with cinch back per this interview.

but I have no idea, curious what comes out and I like this name big bros

edit: Oh nice I just saw them on the pic: indeed Big Bros with some obvious changes from the sample cool

Y'all should think about ohighyo's shirt. I loves mine.

I tried the Portland shirt at SENY - liked it a lot but not for the price, so always keeping an eye out for pre-loved seconds… too bad I'm an XL in it.

I've been thinking about it…

Speak of the devil - roy's new jeans went up in the SelfEdge thread…

[ohighyo]

The roy portland will be entering eBay land soon if one of you fine IH forum members do not grab it by the end of today! Come get you a roy portland!!!

Hey mate, haven't got back to your PM. I was asking to see the hole for all of us, more so than me. Thanks for the PM, greatly appreciated!

[ohighyo]

No prob, snow dog

Old news, but I'm super bummed I missed out in the chambray :(.

I haven't seen this pic before other than denim bro and it's a good one, I give you the soon to be released denim shirt:

Looks pretty good! And the buttons remind me of something iron heart would do.

@grandmasterben:

…Looks pretty good! And the buttons remind me of something iron heart would do already did!.

;)!…

[tigerpac]

Apparently those shirts were very very labor intensive.

@grandmasterben:

They remind me of something Iron Heart do do….

[grandmasterben]

I feel like those shirts look pretty damn similar. Obviously the buttons but even the stitching color imo…

I like Roy's stuff, have a pair of jeans and original chambray but they're no IH

[grandmasterben]

For sure. But then again, IH is no ROY. Especially for the reason that I live in a place where summer seems to be year around, I unfortunately seem to have to admire IH instead of actually wear it. So jealous of those that can actually layer and not be sweating balls all the time.

Okay guys…. Price estimate time. I'm gonna say $385 for the shirt.

[mclaincausey]

Do we know anything about the denim?  I agree with GMB's estimate on pricing and will sit this one out. I wear denim bottoms so much I shy away from tops. If I got another one it'd be IH.

[ohighyo]

I agree tigerpac. My first pair of selvage were a pair of Roy's. They have since been sold. I am sure this new shirt will be crazy priced, and again, be his most labor intensive project. At what point do you say fuck it to something inferior (when I say inferior i am really just saying not as tough) to a similar item and priced just as high, because of labor costs. I'll take a IH shirt that cost probably less, that 15 people made, over a more expensive one just because one person made it.  I still love my roy ducks and I don't hate my roy portland, even with the cig burn. I have just decided that i am done drinking that particular jug of kool aid. Hat off to roy though because he seems to be making a living.

First rule of roy: every release is more expensive than the one before it!
