Giles and Alex hit Japan - June 2022

[Giles]

@Chris:

(or is this one of those things he doesn't like, but decided to do because you convinced him it could work in the international market?)

He's very proud of it, but I am not sure he entirely likes it…..Undecided whether he will sell in Japan.  I asked him once (when you came up with the original idea), I got zero response, so did not ask again.

I was only musing 2 days ago how much I would like to see an IH broken twill, but that it was unlikely to happen.  Then he slammed that on the table yesterday.

Someone at the meeting said that it is like he is in my mind, and knows when I am about to ask for something "outrageous" and beats me to the question by showing me before I can open my mouth.....

You two are adorable.

Super photos, and history lesson. Thanks.

This reminds me of how he felt about the double indigo. Luckily, that worked out ok and he seemed to warm to it eventually.

@Giles My biggest question:  How great is it to see H. and the crew in person again?

[Giles]

Unbelievably good

I spy anniversary shirts…

The broken twill sounds like a super solid year-round fabric. Looking forward.
Cool to see the stacks of UHF and cargos, and all the machines too.

Some randoms from me.  There may be dupes with what Alex has already posted, but you just have to deal with it.

Anny shirts (1,100 of them) being made…..
