God no!

but in a Western. Since I have a sample of the work shirt, I say this more for vicarious pleasure than for acquiring one myself.

This is more of a potential improvement than it is a specific product, and not IH specific, but would love to see a 2nd inner wrist button on denim jackets. A lot of IH products have slightly longer arms and a tighter wrist is a good way to combat blousy sleeves if you don't want to roll it. Even when an arm is normal length I prefer a tighter wrist. Visvim does this and it's nice. I'm probably in the minority but have always been of the opinion that denim jacket arms should fit like a looser version of a shirt rather than the basically straight fit many have, due to the way denim drapes.

How about a black ultra heavy merino wool and cashmere blend commando sweater with black denim shoulder and sleeve patches?
Like this please.
But bring the denim further up the sleeves to reinforce the elbows more.

I 100 percent agree with this. I thought about doing this myself but the right size snaps never made it here…

I have a different opinion on this…. I find the wrist openings too small on most. On my type 2, they are perfect, but that is much larger than on my type 3s. BUT, I wear a medium or large. If I were an XL or bigger, then I'd have no issues. On a medium or large, 4.5 is a tad too small. 4.3 or 4.2 is just not happening with my gorilla hands/arms... keeping them unbuttoned causes the occasional snag of the button on pockets and other things. When it's buttoned, then there is no snag.
One compromise would be snaps at the wrist... then opening them to get the jacket on and snapping them closed after would be much easier... and with that, add a second button for a snugger for for those who need it.

The problem is that the sleeve openings get bigger as you increase size. When wearing a 3 or 4xl they are pretty big. Like the opening on a medium would be great for me.

We can easily add as a pimped option….

Can I send something back to be pimped? I'm in the US so would want to make sure something fits before pimping

I've been asking for a commando sweater for some time. It really fits the IH aesthetic IMO.

Let's hope they're listening.

I'd like short inseam denim shorts, like the 5" inseam Patagonia stand up shorts:

How about a modified type III made with the 21oz indigo serge fabric?

A 10-12oz denim for jeans.
In my perfect world it would become a core item available in most of the cuts like the 14oz and 21oz denim fabric. Of course I love the heavier stuff like everyone else and I'm sure some are balking at the idea of an IH jean that light but not many thought IH would do a 14oz several years ago and H knocked it out of the park with both iterations of that fabric. It also appears that the 14oz sells very well but of course @Giles can answer that better than anyone.
A lot of us live in warm/hot/hell-on-Earth climates. Sure you can say the 14oz or even 21oz can be tolerable in the heat but IMO it's not exactly comfortable and a good 10-12oz fabric feels sooooo much better in the heat. I think it would be very interesting to see H's take on a light fabric in that 10-12oz range.
