      I thought they were small plants - they are not… He was talking 120lbs trees... I provided him with the intel that USPS wouldn't do that, but UPS would for a cool 500€ (I really did look it up)...

      He then responded "he would probably find them in €urope"...  ::)

            You want a toe? I can get you a toe dude.

            Maybe so. Maybe not

              Not sure there is enough correlative data to really say (Or if you guys are even at the liberty of saying), but I would love to know what the best selling (In terms of Volume) Iron Heart was in 2017.

              Obviously we know there were some items that sold out rather fast, but the total volume was low. I'm wondering about total number of items sold. I know it used to be the 634s, but wonder what it is now.

                My bet would still be the 634S.

                  Same.

                  Sales have been cannibalized somewhat by other models, but it's still a huge seller.  If I remember correctly, Giles once said it outsold the next most popular item by a factor of 2:1.

                      @Giles - no rush, and hate to make anyone do anything extra just to find out. Just wondered how the trend was moving or staying the same.

                      Have a safe flight!

                        On plane and only have data going back to Oct.

                        Of total major jeans family sales.

                        Bear in mind we have been out of 888's, so the data is not as accurate as it could be….

                        777 - 30%
                        634 - 26%
                        666 - 20%
                        888 - 12%
                        555 - 11%

                          That's very interesting as I thought the 555 would be a tad more popular.

                            Here's the rub.  The 634 and the 666 are generally always available in Japan for us to pull in when we need them.  The other cuts are not available continually, so there are periods when we just can't satisfy demand, so the results are skewed towards the "generally available" cuts.

                            I have agreed with H, that we will stock the 21oz indigo versions of the 777, 555 and 888 on a constant basis in Kojima, so that should help us to be out of stock less….

                                Love that 777.

                                Maybe so. Maybe not

                                  When I can get the thighs and rise right I love the 777 as well.  555 is probably my least favorite IH cut…I just don't get it lol.

                                      If sized correctly the 555 is amazing with a great taper and enough room in the top block so the gentleman balloons can breathe.

                                        ^ and if you size down you can pretend you were in Motley Crüe ca. 1986 which is fun too (allegedly [emoji849])
