SS21 - Instagram Live Q&A Sessions - Jan 30th 2021

Sweaters, you twat

Many thanks for this very informative session. I'm certainly after some of the new shirts.

I was stunned by the grade of fades of your jeans, @Giles /redhoodieguy. Did I get it right, they are 19oz indigo/black? How come they've faded that much? My 25oz ib is lightyears away from that. I'm aware that fades come from wear and abrasion, but I'm wondering if these two fabrics also fade very differently. Or is it the way you wash them?

[Giles]

They are the 19oz indigo/black 634 samples, I started wearing them in March last year.  My 25oz indigo black looked about the same after about the same time wearing.  I typically wash my jeans when I think they are dirty.  These have had 3 washes (possibly 4, I dont keep notes).

[endo]

thanks, and may I ask how you wash them (degrees, spincycle, detergent)?

[Giles]

Inside out 30C with no spin and I use whatever detergent is lying around.

When they get more faded, I won't turn them inside out and I will increase the temp to 40C, because as they get more faded they show up more dirt and need a more aggressive wash.

Thanks a lot!

Watched on catch up - Great presentation @Giles and Alex, really good to see the products close up and personal so you can see the texture of the fabrics..

UHR is returning, thrilled.  And the new super stubby 15.5 sounds particularly wonderful.

[Giles]

I did not specifically say we would do the UHR in all 5 cuts….At least I don't think I did. We may do, but not a definite....

[profdbrk]

I would suspect that 555 is the most popular–-and of the main cuts perhaps 634 is the least?  But I'm crossing fingers that we'll see UHR in 634.

[Giles]

Well, the good news is that Haraki wants some of the denim for Japan, so I think a 634 is a given….

[organisys]

Caught the catchup, thanks. Liking the pop collar sweat particularly.

[profdbrk]

I happen to like short jackets–-cossacks and the shorter Type III---so the shorter hoodie has always been a favorite of mine.  Those tall guys apparently need them longer.  May have to try to find one before the new ones take their place. 

On another note, my tastes seem to run like the Boss, so odds are for a 634 UHR and then a slubbby new jean.  I'm all in.

@Dishelveled:

I esp enjoyed hearing the proper English pronunciations of wabash, chambray, madras, etc.

same! although I did start questioning whether I was pronouncing them wrong all this time 

@Giles or @Alex do you guys happen to know which items will be run in ladies sizing? Or is that information only available when JP crew updates new products into the system?

[Giles]

Tell us what you want, and we'll see what we can do…..

[Palmer]

The texture shots were awesome. Nice video, boys.

I'm looking forward to the short sleeve wabash and OD shirts the most and hoping that the new denims come in 666.

[summ3rhays]

Great video.  I'm a bit late to the game watching it, but I have a few items on my wishlist now.  The chambray bomber and the indigo cardigan top the list.

@Giles:

Tell us what you want, and we'll see what we can do…..

what, you mean besides everything?  ::) 

on a more realistic note, specifically looking to see if these made the cut -

• Wabash short sleeve &/or any of the chambray short sleeve offerings
• ihsh-277 9oz flannel
• ihj-99 chambray bomber

anything else would be a plus

Whoever asked for olive IH-721's on one of the calls on Saturday - it's happening
