@Mizmazzle yeah! It’s a very nice denim and the fades are pretty cool. Since i lost some weight they’re on my waiting list as well.

Are there any plans for the 19oz ib of the ihsh-409 to eventually come in jeans?

[Alex]

@pechelman they have been and gone, didnt do well (like the 21ib...) and so the run of the 409 is to try and use the last of the denim.

I understand there are a few die hard IB fans on the forum, but that has not translated into sales and we have such limit3ed capacity for anything 19oz+ we have had to make some tough calls.

Thanks @Alex
Understand we're a small bunch and appreciate the quick answer.

@pechelman it's pretty frustrating for us too. It was my idea to try and normalise all cuts in all denims that we develop, rather than just doing one or two cuts in a denim. In general terms it was a good idea, but the added volume it creates in the factories means that 'less popular' denim is harder to justify.

It doesnt mean that we wont remake it down the line, but we need to prioritise others for now.

Could someone please direct me to the thread with the pics and info on the Kolesch tannery? I can’t seem to find it on the big Buck product threads.

@Alex please do some more XS and S especially the 409, I'm not saying this for myself but for my partner, she's tired of seeing me hopping around the house foaming at the mouth with my phone in my hand at 5pm with every new release

[Alex]

Yep, I have seen your repeated requests, along with John Galt. We do read them, but if we make a decision to add more of a size, it takes months to trickle down into the production runs, so you need to be patient I am afraid. Also - XS is the size that we most often have to discount in the outlet, so whilst you and he (and maybe one or two others) can be disappointed when you miss out on a size in a product you want, we are also disappointed when we have to discount many XS because nobody bought the one or two we had in a particular product.

I’ve always wondered why there are not more people wearing Trickers Boots/Shoes here especially with it being a UK company? Not in fashion or something else?

[neph93]

Personally I have always found them a little preppy.

[goosehd]

@neph93 Interesting. The people who typically wear them or the shoes themselves? What about Doc Martens?

What about Doc Martens?

I have a pair of turquoise oxfords that I have recently added to my collection. I think they look great paired with denim with a cuff.

[popvulture]

I love Docs. Frequently wear a pair of UK 8-holes in black.
