@Tobi what @Tago-Mago sounds like the ideal solution! When we enter the launch dates in to each respective thread they get added to the calendar at the top of the page so you can see a snapshot of what's going live when. If you click on the calendar entries you can be taken directly to the thread.

Are you kidding me.... Thats an expensive button. Should come with a warning.

That’s pretty cool @meatmarketdenim1

@seawolf @Matt
Thanks guys. pretty cool have one of the og runs, vintage IH. plus a great shirt. Was a really good deal on the buy/sell thread.

@Giles wondering if you ever go back to a pair of jeans after you’ve properly faded them…thinking more recently of the Broken Twills or even the 18 oz. Vintage?

[Giles]

Nope, end up on the wall in Gosport

[Buckeye]

@Alex feels like the recent runs of the type 3s (21 oz, 16oz) have been overall a little shorter (in length) than prior runs. Is this intentional? (I’m a fan of the shorter length, to be clear)

[Alex]

No, no deliberate plans to adjust the sizing however run to run we get variance and it seems to all be varying smaller than larger of late

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Hey @Alex and @Giles,

have you ever thought about adding the hardware from the 2526J to the jackets overdyed with the new method? That might look great.

[Alex]

No, I haven’t thought about it, but I can see your idea. The problem is overdyed jackets are fully constructed before over dying and so this would add another layer of complexity to the production line

[RobeOfTheMagi]

I understand, I just like the idea of that look.

when is this patch from?

@endo

[Giles]

Maybe 15 years ago.....

[endo]

was it IH made?

[DeeDee85]

Will the 13oz serge shirts make a return at any point? @Alex

[Alex]

Hopefully, but last time we tried to rerun the fabric we got push back from the fabric maker

[DeeDee85]

@Alex no problem, thank you for the info. Fabric from the IHJ-142 for a 21oz indigo serge CPO it is then?

This is a beautiful patch. First time I saw it on the IHJ-25 - Blanket Lined Chino Cloth Tanker Jacket around 2014. But as Giles said, it is quite a bit older @endo.
