      Yep.  I'm sure I mentioned it a few months ago….

          Possibly…..I leave that up to H.  It means a pretty large change to process and has a lot of knock-on implications.

            REALLY random question:

            @Giles before IH, what other brands were you in to?

            In search of:
            IHV-04, med.
            IHSH-185, large
            IHSH-186, large (khaki, and green)

              Whatever half decent jeans I could find,  Brand did not particularly matter.

              Patagonia and Ex Officio for outdoor and fishing gear
              Canali suits because I was a corporate arsehole
              Sage Fishing rods
              Charlton fishing reels
              Mercedes cars

              Is that what you meant? 😉 😉 😉

                  That's a good enough answer.

                  I just recall you selling off shine Flat Head sweaters.

                  Wasn't trying to start a "brand war" our anything, lol

                    I represented Flat Head outside of Japan and US for a while.  When I got serious traction with IH, I had to give up The Flat Head gig, I just could not give the brand the attention it deserved.  I am still great friends with Kobayashi san and his crew and still pop up to Nagano once in a while.

                    Have plenty of brand new with tags size 33 TFH jeans if people are interested….

                      Ha ha. It wasn't love it was a relationship of convenience.

                      Maybe so. Maybe not

                                Oh why is that?  Are there no FH models with a higher rise?

                                  Olive threads would be cool ….. but the priority is -> they come soooooooon!

                                            Those are sought after. Shouldn't have any trouble selling those. I prefer IH

                                            Maybe so. Maybe not
