      Well I'd rather have you buy it than someone who'll never buy another IH piece new (or 2ndhand)!.. But then, I'm not really involved… Just my 0.02...

        Well yeah, i mean who doesnt love finding deals and what not… but on the flip side people put a lot of passion into things they create and sometimes i feel slightly guilty buying things used etc ... weird, i know.

        I know how you feel.  It's kind of a strange Stickholm Syndrome thing.  Or just the fact that Giles treated me so well on our last transaction that I want to reciprocate his kindness and proffesionalism with more of my business.  I did have a bit of guilt when I was unable to pass up my $100 herringbone loggers however.  I try to honor the great treatment Ive gotten from G by sharing my interest and love for this brand with anyone who will listen…
        Thanks again to the whole IH crew for maintaing such integrity with their business and products!

          I have a Face Book page only intended to promote IH gear… I love promoting TW and IH gear to any- and everyone... http://www.facebook.com/Seul.IH

          Other than that: I have a lot of people on a number of messageboards who ask me about clothes, mostly denim… The last couple of months I've found myself to be linking to the IH forum and shop only... A mate even PM'ed me asking whether I was working for IH... I responded...

          I don't work for IH - but I back what I know is the best.

          I guess there's no cure to us IH junks…  😎

            Hopefully that Super Stealth is ready for Zhivago when we go to Vegas Sept. 30th.

                        Yeah, I have had that numerous time with a few items. I don't mind it. In fact, I enjoy it in a sick denim nerd kind of way…

                            1st wash: 30 C°, with some natural soap, delicate setting
                            ==> noticed some sérious white streaks so I tossed it in the washing machine again

                            2nd wash: 40 C°, with some washing detergent for black stuff, delicate setting, extra rinsing
                            ==> it still looks like shit…

                            3rd wash: any tips?..

                              Nah - most àctual high friction spots don't show wear. This sb shirt isn't supposed to fade, so I'm guessing that's not what it os…

                                  man that really sucks seul.

                                  simon626, i think u might be right about the cause of those "fades".
                                  i recall something like that happening to DougNG when he washed his riders jackect and didn't let it get good & saturated before the machine started with it's business.  not like any of that helps you at this point . . .  hopefully i'm wrong & someone with more experience can give you some proper guidance on this.

                                    That was gonna be my next course of action. But then I did an extra rinse last time so I don't know… I'll rinse and get back to y'all later...

                                      I'm convinced that Simon is right.  Hectic had the same issue.  The stuff is so stiff that if machine washed, it does lead to friction fades.  I gave Hectics to Haraki to overdye to see if that would remedy the problem, it did not.    I am talking to Haraki at the moment.

                                            The fades/ streaks were much less visible after the 2nd wash, so I'm still hopeful that it's soap… Of course, now knowing that Hectic has had the same issues...  :-\
