      @freepickin said in There's no Such Thing as a Stupid Question:

      Forgive me if this has been asked before but, what exactly makes indigo special?

      It is a color that has no obvious source in nature. You don't just take a flower or berry and boil it down into dye. The process of creating natural indigo dye is a complex chemistry equation. Even when the dye is ready it produces a green fabric that turns to indigo after you pull it from the solution. How the process was even discovered is a bit mind blowing. The story of indigo is pretty fascinating and definitely worth watching a video or two. Indigo is indeed a very special color.

        Is there any easy way to know which IH products are available in Japan vs IH internal (only)? For example, are any of the CPOs available in Japan or are they mainly IH international?

          They have a website. It’s in Japanese but the pictures and product numbers are comprehensible.

              You will have to compare the 2 sites. There is so much we do that is "International" only, many of which started off as exclusive to us, but Haraki has subsequently started selling in Japan.

              Tagsize 35 and 44 (and possibly 42) not sold in Japan.
              Some denims not sold in Japan.
              Many denim shirts not sold in Japan
              Many UHF's not sold in Japan.
              Many CPO's not sold in Japan.
              Some cuts of jeans not sold in Japan.
              Many Type III's not sold in Japan
              Etc, etc, etc....

                Hey, how do I search or more so find when new drops are due? Just now, the duck vest has dropped and when I hit the forum section on the vest it shows that it was known about several days ago. Yet, I constantly hit “recent” and unread topics trawling for what’s up and coming and I’m none the wiser. Is there a particular term I should be putting into the search bar to help find what’s coming or….?
                Cheers.

                        How do you do a “strike through” when editing text in a post? Sheesh, using mobile browser and can’t remember

                          Maybe I can piggy back on another question of this sort that I've been wondering:
                          How do I quote just one sentence from someone's post to respond to? Do I have to quote the whole thing and delete everything I don't want? Seems there has to be an easier way...

                          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...

                            @SKT use the strikethrough button on top, next to „upload file“

                                        Do ~~ on either side of the text you want to strike through.

                                        ~ ~strikethrough~ ~

                                        Take the spaces out between the tildes

                                        strikethrough
