      Olive drab would be cool, but camo would make it seem like a novelty piece….. and at $1,600, I don't think the good IH folks will want to make it any more difficult to sell

          One thing that I'd (belatedly) suggest is swapping the Velcro on the cuff adjusters and collar with snaps, like on the overdyed M-65.

          I think that snaps would be more durable, and probably fit with a leather jacket better.

            I know.  For some reason, H really dislikes snaps on this type of jacket….

                I fully agree with Graeme…and I only bought the overdyed M-65 BECAUSE it had snaps. Losing the velcro tipped me over.

                The journey is the objective.

                    same. I bought the ihm-20 because of the snaps and because it was overdyed. not saying velco has disadvantages but the ihm-20 had the bells and whistles that tipped me over

                      Hey @Giles , have you gotten any samples of the leather with the shine taken down yet? I'm curious to see what that will look like.
