    @manufc10:

    These look great.  First Polo I've been interested in since forever ago.

    @Giles if the Bell logo is removed are they still returnable?

    No, because it complicates the hell out of shipping etc. if it is returned, we then have to have 2 versions of the product or then have to tell the customer who then orders it that we only have a version without the bell etc etc etc…..I'll update the product page....

      Understood.  I figured that would be the case but thought I'd make sure.

        I can get no more from Japan this season, they are selling too well in Japan for them to release any more.

        The fabric takes 3 months to produce, by which time the Japanese season will be over so we will remake, but not until next year.

        Sorry people.

        Next year, I'll go much longer on these…

          Tom has just told me the weight of this fabric.

          570gm/Meter which equates to 19oz/Yard

            WTF? [emoji15] That's pretty blooming heavy. I feel way happier about sizing up.

                  Bummer!  I've saved this thread to my favorites. Maybe there will be a few returns.

                    The Polo has landed.
                    In black without the bell logo. Just plain black.
                    The fabric is heavy for a polo shirt, not to heavy though.
                    Quality and finish are really on a different level to almost any other polo I've had.
                    Certainly nothing like some other polos that stretch and loose the shape very quickly and are relegated to the car cleaning outfit after a few months of wear.
                    I am sure it will last for years and age very well indeed. It will just get better the more its worn.
                    Just a great item to have.

                    I am not strange. I'm just not normal!

                      I would like to see the next run have an even length in the front and back. I wear polos often for work, and when I get done for the day, I just like to untuck. The problem is that shirts like this are meant to be tucked and therefore the difference in tail length. The even all around Polos can be tucked or untucked and look completely fine but anyone who truly knows polos, knows this shirt is to be remained tucked, and that sucks.

                      I know this isn't law, but this is a general rule of thumb like leaving the last button undone on a suit jacket. If you want to, you can fasten it, but everyone who knows how to wear a suit will either correct you or look in disappointment in your direction. When I untuck a shirt with a tail, I know what I'm doing is wrong and looks silly and I try to avoid as often as possible and have stopped buying Polo's with tails as a result.

                      "Shirts that are made with a flat bottom hem are meant to be worn untucked. But if the shirt has visible “tails” — that is to say, the hem varies in length, rather than being even all the way around — it should always be tucked in."

                        I love Polo with a longer back and never tuck, and I think that these are too thick to be tucked anyway…

                          Only IH makes shirts too thick to tuck…and I tucking love it!

                            I'd love to own one if my size were available but I also feel like the longer tail would really bother me. Personal preference I guess. Maybe a second version could be made for the people like myself who prefer the even length?

                              waiting on images of these out in the wild.

                              too thick to tuck  😃

                              I know it's all personal pref, but I actually like the bell logo

                              head high, middle finger higher

                                Fuck yes to the bell logo. But I like a bit of branding.

                                I'll get pics up when mine get to me, but that won't be until next week.

                                  Obviously it is a personal choice, but I agree!

                                    Agreed.  I think these measurements came out great on these and I love the longer length.

                                        That's super funny. Nowadays it may backfire with kids trying to stand out so much.

                                          A few pics of the blue. Went with XXL as XL would have been a touch too snug and I'll take a bit loose over snug.

                                          I tucked the beast and will like keep tucked for more "professional" situations but will wear untucked in casual circumstances.
