Dear lord that corduroy….

I guess Iron Heart can't use the "we're not a fashion brand" line anymore.

Don't know how I quoted that image. Didn't mean too. I meant it as an overall comment. The striped shirt is definitely a fashion oriented piece. I have no problem with that term.

Well, not like anything is released yet…

@Giles:

Could it be that these are bedford cord?

[MikeC]

They're not, it's just micro cord.  Bedford cord is very distinct, even from that distance.

I forgot to ask: did someone eat that "unusual" porc cutlet bowl?

[JCMx800]

Well, the new shirts are not my cup of tea. Hopefully you´ll do some nice 7.5oz T-Shirts Or maybe a light-medium weight flannel?
Have a nice trip!

An IH Bedford cord shirt would be awesome though.

The more I think about it the more I like these new cord colors.  Dat purple and green….  Those buttons really set the, off too...

[Giles]

The cords are pale colours as the dyes are natural….

[Giles]

Prison Stripes are big with Harley bikers in Japan, it is not fashion or at least not as Haraki views it.

[grandmasterben]

I'm kind of confused by what "fashion oriented" means. Obviously we buy Iron Heart etc. because we think it looks nice. What's the difference between a thick horizontal striped shirt and a wabash shirt aesthetically? They're all patterns to me…

Really like the sound of that…

@ohighyo:

I woke up in some Japanese families living room, and they would not!  Stop yelling!

Hah, love it!

Nice,  I'm a big fan of the purple.

prison stripes are just huge in the chopper/biker scene everywhere right now, not just japan
theres even a company that is basically doing just that right now, t's, long sleeve t's and sweaters.
its a nod to a bunch of characters in old 60's chopper flicks
