      @GC:

      Many, many years ago, I received a tape measure as part of a loyalty scheme through Rapha, Imperial Works. The box and printed note inside really emphasised the brand and its focus on sizing. I think if IH made something like this they would be very popular given the 'lengths' (excuse the pun) you go to on showing us all how to measure our kit. Might even help reduce the number of returns. Figure most people have a tape, but a well made cloth one is something else. Since I've joined this wonderful forum, I for one have returned to using this piece of kit at least once a week. Think a IH version would be a very welcome product hidden into the accessory section.

      Love the idea, I'm on board!  Coincidentally the tape measure I already have is blue like denim… but I'm sure Giles & Co. can think up something better!

      GC: curious as to the thread die in the picture?  Was that included with the tape measure?

        @BULLITT BEE Great you are on board and love the idea. Haha, the thread die I was physically posting to a mate today and just happened to be in reach to help me weight the tape down for the photo. Def not included, unless you can think of a good reason why it should be?

          Ha!  Didn't think it's purpose was to weight down the tapemeasure  😃

            Fantastic idea @GC!!  Not surprised Rapha  did this either.

                We did redo them, but the sizing was off.  We probably lost heart at that point…..

                  I'd love a re-run of some sunglasses. The last pair dropped were beauties.

                        In addition to a black storm rider, my other suggestion would be chinos in a cut similar to the IH-888 jeans in all the different chino colors (ivory, khaki, navy, black)

                        We are going to sample khaki chinos in the 888 cut….

                              Looking forward to it, along with the 888-XHS. Will the XHSib version of the 888 be redone?

                                … How did the varsity jacket do?  😉

                                Not great, which was a crying shame as they are stunning. I’m lucky enough to have the one with the horsehide arms.

                                    Curious about your plans for the black x beige fabric. Would you ever consider selling the raw fabric? I'd probably buy some if so…  :-\

                                      No current plans, but we will use it at some point.

                                      It's not technically raw because it is sanforised,

                                        Sorry - I meant "raw" as in "not transformed into anything yet". That was ambiguous on my part, to say the least…

                                          I assume y’all are talking about the 21oz. Black/Beige denim. My vote would be for a new version of the IHJ-60 21oz. Windbreaker in black/beige [emoji106]

                                            Nice. A one-zip like the IHJ-24 would be ace too, although I’d still by a type III made of it.

                                            Here’s a radical and inevitably doomed suggestion though, how about a padded vest in the style of the IHV-14?
