    @Giles:

    We have an issue with the current batch of IHSH-75, the buttonholes are failing.  We are recalling all that are left with retailers and have taken ours off the website.  We know the cause, but the fix is difficult and the issue only becomes apparent when the button hole fails  If we can't find a satisfactory resolution, we will not make any more work shirts out of the 12oz denim…..

    About a month ago I had one of the top button holes repaired and I noticed three more in need of work but I'm ok with getting it repaired because it seems stronger than new.  What was the cause of the failures?

      I think it was something like the frequency of the stitch of the buttonhole machine not fitting the weave of the denim.

        Actually, it is the frequency of the stitch perfectly matching the frequency of the weft and warp…

            Gave my IHSH-75 a warm soak in the sea at Starfish Beach in North Phu Quoc today.

            The devil is in the detail..

                  Glad to see @AdamJ looks just as pissed off in Viet Nam as you do in Gosport

                          @Giles, curious if there's been any talk of resurrecting this shirt?

                            We all (inc Haraki) understand how important it is to have some 12 1nd 14oz denim workshirts (I have about 6 iterations I want to do).  H is looking for a new workshop that will make them to the quality we expect but with buttonholes that don't fail.  That takes time, unfortunately…

                              Thanks for the reply @Giles. I hope you didn't take my question as a criticism, I wasn't implying that something was missing from the products range by any means, was just curious. I have a 75, that fortunately I've had no problems with and it's a beautiful shirt. Pulled it out to wear the other day and made me wonder if it was to ever exist again. Good to hear that's a possibility though!

                                I did not take it as a criticism at all.  It is something that I have been jumping up and down trying to get sorted.  And it is very definitely something missing from the product range  🙂

                                    We have solved the buttonhole issues.  Last time I was in Kojima, I went out with Mr Heavy Nell (the shirt maker) and Mr Heavy Ounce (Our main heavyweight jean maker).  I bought the topic up at dinner (Because I'm western and rude) and they started to talk to each other and compare notes about how to solve it. H turned to me, and said, this never happens, they are usually competitors…. 🙂

                                    Anyway, we have initiated runs of:

                                    12oz Indigo, contrast stitching
                                    12oz Indigo, tonal stitching
                                    12oz Indigo overdyed

                                      Might just have to get an IH work shirt. You had me at Murdred Out.
