The Red W

[popvulture]

I'm inclined to agree with the comment about the W an the IH label being a bit much. I don't hate having them both, but one or the other's ideal.

@popvulture agree. and prefer the "W"....my two cents

[popvulture]

I think so too. I'm not into zero branding but I do love the simplicity of just the W.

This was something that we suggested to Haraki, based on similar feedback from a select few retailers, but he really likes the double branding, and it’s his gig.

And as has been mentioned. If you like the W then you can take the tag off

[popvulture]

@Alex fair enough!

[Alex]

And at a real push, you can remove the red W like some people do with their jeans. ( Adam313 for eg back in the day)

Embroidered W > IH tag IMO

But I certainly understand why IH might want more overt/explicit branding.

Red W on a workshirt looks so good. The subtle W's on the heavy LS are sick too.

I’ve removed the IH on a few shirts. It’s probably an OCD thing as I like the clean look. But the Red W is a nice tough on shirts.

And whatever that shirt is above, it has gone top of the list.

Bold move! Are you satisfied with the result?

I liken the red W to other famous brand logos in that it’s subtle but instantly recognizable to those in the know.

I truly hope IH keeps using this, especially on their denim. It’s a small detail, but a very important one IMHO. These small details are one of the things that sets the brand apart, and makes it exclusive feeling (to me anyway).
