@Alex I’m on iPhone/safari. I look at it directly since I hate tapatalk (or at least I did previously and haven’t bothered to amend my opinion).
I see it now. It had gotten minimized somehow, and on the phone the resulting tiny bar escaped my notice. Also, I didn’t know these things could be minimized so I wasn’t looking for it.
This same thing happened to me once. I was baffled that a certain section somehow disappeared on me one day only to later find out it had somehow been minimized accidentally. I had no clue things could be minimized either.

@Omega:
RM Williams boots?
I am unfamiliar with these.. I’ll have to look into them!

I’ve noticed the recent shirt releases have been smaller in PTP and waist than previous shirts. Was that on purpose?
-
I see. Well I hope it gets sorted out. Good luck bud.

In for XXXXL.

The issue comes when everyone needs to size down and we lose a true XXXL and gain a XXS
Oh I know… I’ve seen the dynamic working in real time on big drop days. I totally feel for you. It must make deciding on UHF numbers (always tricky anyway) an absolute nightmare lottery (but the twat in me is a little selfishly happy. Sorry(ish)) [emoji1]

I’m rather twatty as well, I guess. The p2p’s in the latest releases have been spot on for tastes.

I'm curious as to what the last extant release was and when it was issued? There have been some excellent products released recently that have all been endangered, what would appear to be a growing customer base scrabbling over limited production runs…It can be very frustrating for those of us that don't have the level of disposable income to purchase on issue, while waiting a few months to buy one is not an option as it would sell out.
I guess that's why you announce issue dates so long before issue?

Off the top of my head, IH-526PJ and IH-9526PJ.
We simply can't have too much extant product, the cost in space and tied up working capital would break both IHUK and IHJP.
Alex and I are working hard on how we predict demand and future sales and how we keep popular stuff from not running out. That includes making more than we currently need of an item and leaving it in Hachioji (that so we can fulfil US and Asian retailers from Japan, when they need restocks). That has an impact on Haraki, as many of the items popular outside of Japan are not sold in Japan, so he has to find space for IHUK inventory, and it has an impact on us, because we pay for it when the production run is complete.
We do try to give as much "look what's coming down the pike" info as possible, to allow people to prioritise.
-
And you guys do a fantatstic job of that. No other company gives customers a peek at what's coming down the pike as good as IH.
-
@Giles to echo @manufc10 sentiments, my comments were certainly not intended to deride IH. You and your team do a fantastic job. Very few companies are interested let alone able to provide the level of customer services that you do.
I do also appreciate the implications on businesses of managing the fundamental matter of supply and demand…or in this instance demand and supply! Hopefully the moleskin CPO will stick around for a month or so!
-
It’s obvious the solution here is to do another moleskin CPO. This time in charcoal. Problem solved
