IH-2526J - 17oz Duck Modified Type III - Brown

[Giles]

Not yet.  I have to see the sample first and then integrate into production…..

G, what size is that? For reference…

@Giles:

IH-2526J

[Seul]

Ridiculously goodlooking… The 2526 that is... Giles always looks fab, of course.

[elclintor]

Maaaaaannn that looks nice..

Hope to have the $$ to snag this when it drops..

[madmonday]

Giles that is very British ROck-Star. . . but in a good way, hahaahahahahaha

**& i don't even mind the turned up collar

[Giles]

For reference it is a large.

AND THE BAD NEWS IS.  We will not be doing an overdyed version.  Spoke at length with Haraki about it today.  He spent so much time choosing the fabric/the thread colour/etc he does not want to hide his view of perfection under a layer of dye.  He would have done it if I had pressed him, but I decided that I would just do the "pure" version.

Can't say I am mad. In fact, happy to hear this news! Plenty of OD to be had…

pure version is pure badassness, good for folks scared of teh denim tux but want a classic cut type III.  hope these do well so they can stick around a bit in the production schedule

Man, I really want to resist this, but I don't know if I can

Hm, what did he say? Will he be doing a version with additional inche(s) in body and sleeve length ? 

Simon.

The main thing i will say is that its the first time I've seen Giles smile on this forum, so Japan must be working.

My vote is for classic type III sizing. Modified pockets is already enough. Don't want it to be the a knock-off of the SE OD…

[Seul]

Never was a fan of OD'ing duck… Shit looks so good as is... Y'all 'd agree if you had the IH-2527J... Of course - only a handful of us have that'un...

Agreed and Not For Long…

You know something I don't?.. Re-issue of the duck rider, really?..

Oh shit, maybe not. Could have swore that was happening but then again, I am usually exhausted while reading through everything so I may have misread… Also, whenever you think you have something from IH that no one else/ few people have.... It gains momentum and shows back up.

[Seul]

Yeah - last news I heard was the proposed re-issue of the duck wasn't happening, this 2526J was the alternative…

[LandoCal126 0]

Gotcha. My bad. Well, looks like you are special, but we already knew that!

Indeed the pockets are 'enough' !
If a Large is OK for Giles then I may be OK, fingers crossed.
