          I think I finally figured out what I want to do with this chainstitch patch I got on Etsy. Anybody have a recommendation for a tailor/whatever in NYC who could do this (correctly) for me. I don't trust my local dry cleaner not to screw this up.

              You might want to get some patch glue to secure it in the exact spot you want it before you go to a tailor. Selfedge has a tailor that they recommend around the corner from them on Stanton Street. I don't know the name.

                Good call. I'll look into that.

                  Do you know if it is possible to add hand warmer pockets to a coat? This is not really IH specific. I have a Barbour jacket that fits me well and that I very much like but it doesn't have hand warmer pockets and it drives me bananas. I could try to find an alternate coat, but again, this one fits me well otherwise…

                        Any recommendations? This is my IHM-15, about 3.5 years later. The right pocket is getting worn.

                          A pro darn job will be expensive and not many people will pull it off well. Taping would work, or making a feature of it with some sashiko?

                              Indigoproof fixed a jean jacket for me that had similar problems. You might want to reach out to Rain,if you’re in the states.

                                Bought a couple of liberty cuffs ages ago that I planned to put on my IHW-01 but never got round to it. I recently acquired a MFSC Drover Blouse in Denim and this jacket seemed like the perfect home for the liberty cuffs . . .

                                  That’s so cool! Perfect garment for those cuffs, well paired @den1mhead . 👍🏼👍🏼

                                  If I ever get to meet you at some IH event, I sure hope you’ll be wearing it so I get to personally see it.

                                          I'd like to offer a shout out to Railcar Fine Goods.  I have a good problem: I have lost a ton of weight and despite age and gravity, I'm back (mostly).  That said, my IHs have been worn to daily perfection–-softer, fades, good things---but are now far too big.  I've bought a few new pair because I can't live without 634s.  I also just received a pair downsized by Railcar.  No diaper butt, proper waist, I really couldn't be happier.  They did a great job.

                                            I have this old shirt that I bought second hand from a member here about 7 or 8 years ago, so I don't even know which model it is, but it was looking pretty badly faded and needed some help. Yesterday I mixed up my natural indigo dye and breathed new life into the shirt. Good as new!
