Are there any DR x IH x FoxBrother flannels in the pipeline for 26’?
You need to ask Division Road. These collabs are led by them, it is their gig.....

Is it true that IH drops used to be at 11am? I'm looking through some old threads and saw that was posted on an item... Not sure if that was just a one off or something, kind of reminds me of my days buying Supreme street wear 10 years ago, they changed to 4pm too a few years back.
edit: I mean UK timezones...

@AdamJ Maybe I'm just seeing it in a different timezone, it was from a post on the 17oz duck untucked from 2023 or something, probably viewing it from an American timezone haha.
Thanks for the quick reply!
-
@goosehd I realise that now haha, and I think that's a good time, gives the guys time to prepare the next day shipping orders etc, and it would be crazy having the drops at 6am EST for the Americans, or even worse West coast...
Thanks for the reply's guys

Are F/W 2026 lookbooks going out with IHUK orders?

Just had to buy a new washing machine. New one offers cooler wash options and gentle cycle but shortest wash on these options are at least an hour.
Also has option of a shorter cycle (30 or 15 min) with cool wash options but not a ‘gentle’ wash.
So question is gently but long or short but slightly more vigorous (for the wash that is, as I realise that leaves the doors wide open for double entendres!) -
@Alex thank you

@Oaktavia Dude, you hit the nail on the head. I've had this conversation with myself over and over since i started the journey. I am definitely prone to hyperfixations. Some pass quickly and others come in waves. My current "state of wear" on my denim obsession has moved into a more passive state. I'm not as sharp with my wear/wash logging, and have been choosing a pair for the day with almost total carelessness. When I started my 21ib's i wanted to wear them exclusively, but now, I really just enjoy the variety. My wash routine has also steadily increased and become more casual too. I only handwash on the first wash after the obligatory "wear as long as possible without washing", about 30-40 wears, then i start presoaking and throwing them in the machine every 20 or so.
I've found that my 'new' pairs no longer look 'new' after about 75 wears, and by then have picked up enough character to begin rotating. We talked before about the initial sprint, and this is pretty much it.
My fitness routine has gained me some weight, so while all of my jeans are still wearable, some fit better than others, and thats pretty much the determining factor for my rotation. The ones with less wears just end up in a kinda catchup mode, but I still like alternating between more and less faded pairs for the sake of variety, and not 'neglecting' any of my jeans by not giving them the attention they deserve.
I have like 9 or so pairs, most of which are decently faded, but once i'm without a pair of freshies, i start keeping an eye on restocks.

@WhiskeySandwich dude you also nailed it with your response. I think that of all the folk here on the forum, you are the one who I can most relate to as far as wearing and fading definitely gained some insight and your post has helped me steady my course. I knew this was they way, I just needed someone like you to remind me. So, thanks homie.
-
@Oaktavia Dude, my pleasure. its always cool hearing how your brain works lol. And it's also good to hear all the folks' different takes on the varying thoughts for the 'problem' of rotation. Once I realized its not a 'problem', I found it added enjoyment. If fades reflect the wearer, I'd rather them not reflect the obsessive aspect of me lol

Question about sleeves...
I've noticed that IH shirts happen to fit me damn near perfectly. I do not think this is at all me, but instead the pattern. Many other shirts/jackets/polos/etc, all have this weird mobility issue where the sleeves shoulder cap is like pinned down, where if you raise your arms, it brings the whole shirt up with it, and you end up with fabric bunching above the shoulder and showing a bit of belly. It makes it almost impossible for me to wear anything but a T-shirt or an IH shirt.
Oh there's supposed to be a question here.....so, What the dilly yo? -
High arm holes. Less tailored items with lower arm holes fit more people more comfortably so that's what big brands do. Imagine if the arm holes were sewn down to the hem and you have an example of why the higher the better in regards to how raising arms will pickup the body.
it's 5pm somewhere, right?
