Samples - New Products We Are Working On

[Mizmazzle]

Yup! @Alex that Sherpa needs a beating I’d be glad to show it who’s boss!

[doubletee]

@Alex i’d also be happy to Chuck about the duck western or Sherpa

[Nocturama]

If we’re chucking our hats in the ring, that XL Hickory CPO should fit me rather well.

The Western untucked looks amazing. Duck is turning into my favorite IH fabric lately

Over the years,from time to time,Forum Members have gotten IH gear to wear/fade and document. While there have been quite a few who did really great jobs at fading,I don’t think anyone has done as good a job at documenting as @Oaktavia. Being an artist he has an innate sense of composition,and it shows whenever he posts updates on his progress. Also his willingness to answer,and be knowledgeable about every aspect of the process,has substantially raised the bar of IH Sample fading. The other guy whose name I can’t totally remember,and who did a really great job,might have been a landscaper or something like that. He worked outside spitfiredealer I think was his username.

I’m gonna call the western duck the “Tucked Duck” no one can stop me

[Oaktavia]

@Jett129 thanks for the kind words my friend. I was super fun to document and chat about the fading process of the 409 sample. I loved that time last year.

@Oaktavia Sorry for getting off topic but you and Adam W. are both artists and when you guys photograph your jeans or jackets it becomes art,because that’s how you’re wired. Adam always talks about wearable art and both you guys have shown the ability to me to make what you wear into art. It’s not an accident how you guys compose the images that showcase the garments you’re fading. Whether it’s Adam’s Colorado Mountain tree shots or any number of shots you do it always feels and looks like art to me. If I do the same thing it’s just a picture of a jacket.

@Jett129 I totally agree with you my friend, I don't think I know the other guy you mentioned but Steve is really great, he is also always available and kind and can explain his magic very well even to donkeys like me. His photos are inspiring and helpful. Thanks @Oaktavia

[Alex]

@Choko yes.

The duck cargos look great... Is the cut planned to be the same as the IH-734 (ripstop cargo)?

[Alex]

733 was the base pattern

[cityofdelusion]

Yep, saw that. Asked to be sure, because I don't know the difference in cut between the 733 and 734 and thought they have the same cut (not knowing that the numbers indicate a different cut)

Edited to ask: Did the 733 sell more than the 734 or why was the decision made to make these duck cargos in the 733 cut instead of the 734 to begin with?

[Jett129]

@Luijim78 The other guy is Adamwelchart on Instagram.

[Alex]

@cityofdelusion They are the same cut, yes. I don't really understand what your point is, sorry.

[cityofdelusion]

My point was that, as I have a pair of 734 cargos that I like the cut of, I wanted to know if these essentially would have the same cut. Your last reply clarified that. It's hard keeping up with all the cargo cuts and numbers and I didn't know that the 733 was the same as 734, hence my question. My bad for not expressing myself clear enough.

[Alex]

OK, that makes sense. They are based on the same cut, the fabric is different, hence different model numbers. (All western shirts in different fabrics have different model numbers, despite all being the same cut, for eg)

[cityofdelusion]

Nice. Now I'm really looking forward The 733/734 cut is truly awesome.

Ooooh at long last a Sherpa cord jacket! Any chance of black/black? I suppose there’s no chance of snaps?! For what it’s worth, I love the plain cord collar on the sample, and prefer it to the fleece on the collar.
