Spring/Summer 2016 Fairytale Release Schedule

[Max Power]

@Giles:

And just now I realised that all the IHSH-149 we have here are for retailers anyway, we decided not to stock them…..And concentrate on the lighter weight short sleeved chambray's, yet to arrive...

Is rivet and hide one of them?

[Giles]

No.  VMC, Pinkomo and Lord.

[Max Power]

Thanks. Too bad that Shortsleeves don't get much love.

[Giles]

I decided to take all 3 colours in the lighter weight chambray…...

That's the plan…..

Any updates on the Yenim money weft jeans?

Eagerly waiting for the IHSH-147…

[Jordonf9]

I'll be here, seeing if the Boss even comes out with one of the best shirts this summer. First it was Early April, then late, it is May…sitting here "patiently" waiting even for a tease photo. Can't believe clothing could do this to me!

Not available in JP. If I remember correctly And it also means IWHWIH

[Giles]

It sort of means not available in Japan, but if I don't order enough, then Haraki will make up the balance and sell in Japan.

[FurattoHeddo]

@Giles any word on the Cookie Monster UHF?

[Giles]

Nope.  Was Golden week in Japan last week.  So not a lot happened.  I have a mass of stuff scheduled for this month, the  next 3 weeks could be mayhem….

[Tidal]

Can you ask about the 666od if you get a chance please Giles?  End May was what I remember as the last date.

[Giles]

End of May is what the latest schedule says, but the title of this thread is what it is for a reason.  None of the Japanese I have ever worked with are particularly good at forecasting and Iron Heart actually suffers badly from pushing the edge of the envelope.  We often get bumped down the queue at the workshops/factories when a larger/easier run comes along.  That is a real pisser, but we don't throw our toys out of the cot because the Japanese garment industry is in such a chronic position at the moment that forcing our suppliers to make difficult stuff for us when they have the opportunity of making easier stuff for another customer may force them out of business, then we all lose out.

IWHWIH

@Giles:

Giles, is this because of general pressure from the indo-chinese industry plus Japan having high overheads? Or something else? Given the number of western brands using Japanese fabric, I would have thought things were on the up…
