      That vest looks amazing Giles. Shame that made in China got a knee jerk reaction. I don’t know much about worker conditions so couldn’t provide an opinion, but it seems to me that quality of Chinese goods is as good as the customer requests. Want to buy cheap junk? That’s what you’ll get. Want something well made and, likewise, they’ll oblige for a higher price.

      Having seen 1st hand the efforts you all go to create quality gear, I’m sure the vest was as excellent as any other item bearing your name.

        When I originally told H it was an issue, he simply could not comprehend the problem.  In fact he
        felt pretty insulted.

        "I specced IH quality, it is IH quality, what the fuck is the problem?"

        It's the same gig as Made in America Jingoism.  Just because it is made in America does not mean it's good.  I could, if I wished, provide the denim and get jeans made in LA for USD12 per pair, now don't tell me that a) they'll be good and b) that the workers earn a living wage….

              I did say that as long as she hid my identity I didn’t mind. «50 Shades of Cleaver» didn’t quite work.

                Not sure if you've done this, but flap pockets on some work shirts would be cool. It changes the look a bit and keeps things inside for anyone bending over/doing work in them

                  There have been some variants of the standard  IH workshirt pattern witj flap pockets. The IHSH-163 springs to mind. Great shirts.

                    How about a shirt exactly like this but in the Black IHSH-64 fabric (or olive)

                      That would even be really cool in a serge fabric.

                        Those are definitely nice but more like yolk-less westerns (unless I'm seeing something different). I meant the boxier work shirt pockets

                          I don’t think Purple and Serge have ever been in the same sentence before.

                          Oh yeah man, I would be all over a purple serge shirt.

                            Im almost sure this has been suggested (or even done?) before, but here’s my wish:

                            14OZ sweat pants? 🙏🏽

                            Or even a 14OZ jumpsuit….

                            Use it or lose it.

                              I can assure you they are more work shirts than westerns.

                                They made sweatpants before at our request… But unless you like red or green (a lot) one was left wanting 😃

                                    We proposed this concept to Haraki last year, he said he would think about it but we haven't heard back. I have just asked him again.

                                      While I know there's been some kind of pink "pig" UHF, either a rerun or another lighter red flannel would be great.  Maybe not even a flannel, but a solid color way ala the 7oz soft flannel, love that fabric.

                                      Also, maybe a less "all over" patterned flannel?  Something a little more color blocked or cut from a "larger" pattern (like flannels sewn from blanket leftovers) that would feature heavy variance from shirt to shirt?  I love a good check as much as the next guy, but I feel like the flannel patterning could expand (maybe I haven't been around long enough?)
