      @popvulture said in The Red W:

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

      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

            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.

              Think it, be it.

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

                I'm as ugly as you

                  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.

                  Ohhhhhh that constitutional stitching!

                                  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).

                                      Looks like several of the SS 24 shirts have the red W and tag.

                                      In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                                        It's quite a big change for IH, one that will divide opinion. Personally I remove all visible branding where possible, certainly on my shirts and tops. I like a 'stealth wealth' look, quality that doesn't shout. At the very least I'd advocate for different coloured logos to suit the shirt in question, for a slightly more subtle effect, as seen on some of the shirts upthread.

                                          Having said that, I've always found it cool that the brand suits a wide range of styles, personalities, degrees of taste in blingitude etc etc. And that it draws on the history of 20th century workwear without being slavish or purist about 'heritage'. IH really is a lot of things to a lot of people, and ultimately as Alex says it's Haraki's show. The above post just my 2 cents.
