      We had a guy who worked for us once, he simply could not get his head around the sizing variance.  My argument was even Pirelli F1 tyres have sizing variance….

      We actually see it as a virtue, it allows us to more often find someone's ideal size.......

        Exactly why I thought it might be by design. It does seem to work out for everyone…if the measurements don’t work this go round, fingers crossed for next run.

          There are great photo tours of the Japanese factories on the forum that have made me curious about the people who work them. What are the conditions for the labourers who make the garments? Are they unionised? Also wondering if there has ever been any though to do some production in UK?

            I honestly do not know if they are unionised.  The conditions are brilliant, they get well paid, work sensible hours etc etc.  No thoughts of manufacturing in UK….

              Great thanks. It’s is clear from the level of quality that there is a lot of skill in the making.

                              Hey Scott. We are literally working on the graphics to announce the IG live shows as we speak. I think we will announce dates publically on Friday this week, but it's looking like 20/21 December for IG live then a full reveal on the forum the evening we finish the last IG live

                                This was such a Giles thing to say.  I feel like the transition is almost complete.

                                          There will be pretty soon. They are en route to the UK now, then will be heading to the retailer that they are a collab with tomorrow or early next week
