      I spilt a decent amount of coffee on my kanreki shirt and a pair of jeans. This is a multiple part question. Will coffee stain the shirt? Is there a time in which I need to get the coffee out? Because I won’t be able to wash it for at least an hour. And I spilled it on my 777’s. Any information would be helpful thanks

      Maybe so. Maybe not

        Before you do anything, blot out as much as you can with Kitchen paper, this gets it out instead of spreading it around with water and a sponge which is what a lot of people reach for.

          Thanks. I did my best with a cotton knit hat that I had in my car at the time. Well

            Shout is the best thing,I’ve found for coffee stains. It doesn’t fade or harm the material. You will still have to wash the stained items,but you’ll be good as new when done. From another clumsy bastard.

              I recommend using cold water for any rinses or washes. Warm water will set the stain. Good luck!

                  Idk man but this tour jacket I’m wearing is amazing. So soft and heavy.

                    It’s definitely a contender. I have about 6 months until Jacket season starts again, so planning my attack.

                      Not on your list but i'd say the 526Lod you wore on the world tour.

                            I think for versatility then you can’t beat od. Either the OG IH-526-od or the IH-526L-od.

                            Modified or traditionsl is more a matter of body type perhaps, although to my surprise, I’ve found longer jackets allow more flexibilty for me. The shorter type III’s are great with a just a tee, but for layering the length is useful.

                              Thanks team. The ODL is probably the best option. Weight is moderate, color is great, and I know how it will fit.

                              Now just fingers crossed one still exists in August/Sept time frame

                                Is there a difference between rough out and burlap leather or just a nomenclature thing?

                                      Hi, I posted the on the 461s thread but it might get some attention here. Hope it makes sense…
                                      I'm hoping for a restock in sz30. Also wondering if sz29 will fit me. My jeans are usually size 29-32. I have apc hipsters which are low rise slightly flared bootcut in sz29 (i also have a pair in sz30 which are way too large). Since their, and some other brands sz29 bootcuts fit much larger (due to the cut and how their worn), where i would fit 30-32 in different cuts same brand, could I fit sz29 461/461s... Although my size 30 666sod are way too small now but they are a super slim bootcut. I also have a pair of IH-801 Duck Logger Pant sz31 which are a little too roomy

                                        When a new product launches at IHUK what is the reason behind staggered launches from IH vendors in the US? For example, the ihj-69 was sold by IHUK followed by R&H. The other European vendors then followed suit. No US vendors have started selling the ihj-69 yet.

                                          It takes longer to ship stuff to US than Europe is the short answer.

                                            Hi there… It’s actually quite difficult to work this kind of thing out from that info. The best way to find out would be to measure your best fitting pair the way IH measure, then find the pair of 461s that is closest to, and preferably a little smaller than them.
