      i've always thought FH to be street from the get go. maybe not the street wear we know today but their line of clothing and style has always been very modern compared with IH. things like their baseball tees, sneakers and their denim cuts have always made me think that they're slightly more modern in their style

        Always loved TFH, but they seem to make SO many products spanning their different brands that I've always wondered how they (and other brands, even Samurai, stayed afloat). I guess I have my answer. Who knows if smaller collections would've made a difference with the Japanese market the way it is, but I wouldn't think it helped.

          I have some amazing stuff brought over the years mainly the tee and 20oz jeans.

          Hope these new kids on block don’t ruin the label.. otherwise that end of that..

          Street fashion is bloody waste of time.. follow that leader, when that novelty wears out, next leader in positions.

          That timeless clothes wins. Some people brains need updating.

            Such sad news for a brand that I really enjoyed when I could fit into their shirts. I really wish I would have bought more of their Googies line when they were out. They made some really fun pieces.

              i wonder if anyone knows whats the deal with the flat head store in japan? curious to know about the one in harajuku..

              i know they've filed for bankruptcy and stuff, but i didn't follow on the news regarding the hearing in court etc. will their stores be opened still and have a set date to shut? i suppose most retailers would still hold onto their stock?

                    IH should buy TFH and drive the business on.
                    It would be a pity if TFH disappears  😞

                        Its only speculation. But each company makes its very own business. Only that TFH would have way better sales channels. if that would work?!

                            Not only that but Giles did bring flat head to Rivet and Hide… Danny took them on.

                            What more could you ask for, I got most of my TFH from there.

                                  actually, i was wondering where else might stock them in jp? over the years i've known raw denim, somehow i haven't manage to get at least 1 pair of jeans. bit late but hoping to get 1 now..

                                    The more people talk about TFH shutting down, the more I think I should also add another pair to my collection

                                      I never bought a pair of their jeans, but I really love their denim's appearance and have a taste for it in my wabash work shirt from them. It's very distinctive and I would love for it to live on in some form. Perhaps they could license it elsewhere.

                                      Think it, be it.

                                        I visited the Osaka flat head store two weeks ago, they seemed to have a fair amount of stock across sub labels.

                                            3 weeks ago I saw TFH Jeans in Ueno, cant tell you what kind of TFH´s but I saw em.

                                            TFH is/was still a brand I never was interested in. So nevermind.
