        Adam, we are a Japanese brand.  The Japanese love that stuff.  If H decides to put it on the garments, sorry don't buy it, but don't rant, it won't change.

        Finkster, this is a nylon outer unlike the cotton of the Tanker, it won't hold long term scars.

        Riff - polyester.

              I personally think those jackets don't look right when they are patch free.  I understand the dislike of visible branding though.

              Edit: meaning that particular style of racing crew jacket

                Generally I enjoy the fact it's just a little red W or a tab on a shirt pocket. But there's something about the naivety of the t-shirt designs I love. They're almost anti-fashion, having nothing to do with western concepts of cool. Other times the branding just works for me. The printing and font choice on the ihj-12 and 45 are just great in my eyes. I'll add that where I live, no-one but my wife knows what Iron Heart is, so brand recognition really isn't a factor for me [emoji1]

                  Thanks for educating. I didn't know of this style of jacket. But when doing light research(Google) of said style, most jackets do have a patch on the breast of some kind of branding. (Like a fútbol kit)

                  Cheers from the mobile

                  Cheers! 

                    I'd like the jacket just as much either way to be honest.

                          Is the 14oz satin/pique type III planned for F/W2016 or S/S2017?

                          Am I the only one excited for this? 😀

                                      I spent about 3 hours at the shirt making factory today.  I left (and I honestly really mean this), not knowing how we sell the UHF's for the price we do.  There are 12 people cutting and sewing and they get 60 shirts completed a day.  Those are just the "productive" people, on top of that they have 2 managers, and the most amazing old sewing master (female), whose role it is to train the new staff.  Every new recruit is trained by the sewing master for 6 months before they are allowed to make an actual shirt that can be sold to Haraki…..I think the sewing master my favourite person I met this trip: ancient, wizened, humble and brilliant......
