@Heavy_blue @DrPat
We have an IHSH-124 - Cotton Indigo Hickory Stripe Quilt Lined Western Shirt with side pockets from @riffblaster-general hitting Relove at some point. Tag XL

@Graham nice heads up! Thanks G, stoked

…and if you don’t know who @riffblaster-general is…

Howdy,
The type II indigo/indigo came in today and it fits me like a glove! Proper shots will be posted in the thread. But huge shoutout and thanks to @Oaktavia for blessing me with this pair! He even added a 7,5oz tee inside the package! Thanks again Stevie and you’re the best man

Here we go....
(1) Letting Self Edge repair my IH-301s-07-bk. Every time the darning changes direction there is a little ball of thread. The crotch is now a cheese grater.
(2) Not buying more than two beach towels
(3) Not getting the small duffel bag in addition to the medium. The medium can hold lots of stuff but it's not so practical because it gets a bit too heavy for my shoulder.
(4) Not getting an additional old style belt with the silver buckle. You can see the old one on top, which has over 10 years of wear, and the new one on the bottom, which has about 3 years of wear. The new one has a wrinkled effect that I don't like.
(5) Getting my first IH cordovan wallet stollen. I replaced it right away and have had the replacement for about 12 years, but it still pains me to think that some thief probably just took the money and trashed the wallet. Here's the replacement with the current amount of wear.
(6) Not figuring out how to get an IH Camo beach chair. Nobody else except for Giles has one, but still....

Man, why’d you have to go and bring MY regrets into this?
Hahahahah
I was gonna post it somewhere in another chat but I was too lazy to search for the photo -
Just before the Loom Breakers were released, there was a pair of work pants sampled in the indigo / indigo canvas. They never made it into production, but the sample pair fit me perfectly.
I have no idea what happened to them. They never came up in any sample sales, but in retrospect I should have talked @Giles into selling them to me.
There have been a few releases that I liked the look of, but would be too warm for Australia. The IHM-38-OLV is a current example.
As for the IH-436, I got a pair from the last run in a size 34 during the pandemic. Due to being a bit fat then, they didn't fit me, and due to my gym habit, they still don't fit me. They're a weird cut. I probably should stick them up in a sales thread.

Reading all of this makes me regret that I got into Iron Heart not even a year ago. So many cool pieces that I will never have the opportunity to try…
But even in this short time I’ve been around I had experience of not being quick enough to get something I really wanted.
I’m talking here about the Oiled Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Olive [IHM-37-ODG]. This made me to buy backups of the things that I really connected with (like the IH-888-XHSib or IHSH-339-SAX).
