IHSH-170 - Indigo Dyed 10oz Check Selvedge Flannel Work Shirt
-
It was too early to make popcorn, but this was entertaining to watch from a distance. Happy for all involved. It is a great thing that there is so much love for worthy garment like this! More power to y'all…

When I sat in front of the computer at 10:50 and the 170 page had a lag when I pressed F5. I knew it was gonna be a frenzy. I even went and ordered a bandana so I would be sure I was logged in and ready to go. I counted down from 10:58 and pressed F5 right at the stroke of 11 EST. And the XXXls were already gone! I apologize for all the bandwith I probably cost IH by spamming F5.

intresting…

Damn
:'(, that was so fast, anyone have a size L to spare? -
Was this expected to sell out super fast everywhere?
No. I have never seen anything sell this fast in Japan, I think Haraki was blindsided too. I realised IHUK was in deep shit about 2 weeks ago when the "tell me when back in stock" emails outstripped the number of shirts we were getting in. But that's like 4 months too late
I had to commit to these in early November…... -
@Giles you should seriously consider doing a pre-order thing. Although I kind of appreciate how limited this stuff is. You feel like you have a treasure when you score something.

Pre-orders don't work…......
Let's say we get pre-orders for
1xS, 2xM, 10xL & 4xXLThen we make them and they are a size smaller than expected then we have
An "XS" that no one wanted
2xS
10xM
4xL
and no XL'sSo I have to order effectively double what is pre-ordered to spread the risk and ensure that we can fulfil all the orders, then we get left with stuff we can't sell.
Not many people are as tolerant as you are Mike when it comes to sizing, so it really is an issue.
-
I get you. Does this mean I can pre-order stuff though?

I can imagine that would be a nightmare.

Yeah sorry for bringing it up.
-
Sold completely in Japan. Probably no restocks. There's no western either. You might be able to get one from one of IH other distributiors, i.e. Self Edge.
@Sam:
There's no more fabric so this is it. SORRY!

We did pre-orders with both releases of the DWC jeans. In both cases we made twice as many jeans as we had orders for. We released the excess (over what had actually been ordered for the DWC) as a different model number with a different patch. (We also had to order loads extras of both patches too)
So, by the time people had concentrated on what size they actually needed, we had to swap sizes because people had changed shape and the sizing did not actually come in as predicted (this is not science folks), we had a shit load of jeans that had to have patches swapped and stamped etc etc
It's a logistical bitch and if we screw just one persons order up we are demonised.
It just aint worth it
