2015 Fall/Winter Pipeline

[Giles]

Larger sizes make a small amount of difference to us.  Yes, the larger the average size, the less shirts we get per roll, but our demand curve is classically bell shaped, so it really is not a big deal…

[neph93]

Got it. So the whole short run/ high demand/extra caché if you get one thang, is more a by-product than a business model? I could ask about this all day. I'll stop now. Off topic as well

[Giles]

If we get this stuff wrong, it costs us big time.  So we will usually err on the side of caution when initiating a run of fabric and/or a run of shirts/bottoms/jackets.  Having stuff sitting around that does not sell/will not sell, is expensive.  Each one of those garments is money tied which we could possibly be putting to better use.

I know there is a school of thought that says we should make more of everything so our customers always get what they want, but if we did that we'd disappear up our own arses in about 3 months….

I have said before, but it is worth repeating.  Being a good retailer is the art of getting it wrong less than anyone else, because getting is right is simply impossible.

Thx a lot for this early time schedule - that helps hugely.
October will be much expensive    … Boy, oh boy!

@Giles:

I probably don't have to say this because it is superfluous (see what I did there?) ;), but the collection is simply amazing.  The breadth and depth is something I have not seen from the gang before.  If there is not something for everyone there I'll eat my hat (oh, damn no hats…... :D).  The guys must have been working there little socks off.

I will start documenting the stuff tomorrow and if I run out of time will spend some of Friday taking pics too.

@Giles:

One of 2 new indigo selvedge heavyweight flannel shirts…..

HF Indigo Selvedge Flannel …
Yes, this guys have been working there little socks off!

Heavy (but not ultra) at 10oz    :-*.
Great collection.

^Agreed. It's damn impressive how the IH crew manages to raise the bar, season after season.

Impressive…. and expensive! Every time I think I have all I need, IH screws that up for me.

[Finkster]

Is there any time schedule / exp. date for the A1 Type herringbone Jacket and the Beach Jacket yet?

[Giles]

I am in the Hachioji office at the mo.  I will try and take photos of everything.  I'll then release pics, model numbers (where I know them) and expected release dates…..

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of wallets suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced… :o
