OK. This is where we are at with the anny jeans.
They will be made from our 21oz indigo signature selvedge denim. There will be a few special details, obviously including the patch.
There will be approx 300 pairs of the 634 made in time for the anniversary party, they will be offered to party attendees first, and the remainder will go up onto the website shortly after the party weekend.
We really wanted to make all 5 core cuts and offer them to our retailers for sale later in 2022 or early 2023, but after extensive discussion with Haraki, we have decided to ditch that idea.
The simple fact is that demand for all cuts in our 21oz denim significantly outstrips our ability to make them. Had we offered the anniversary jeans to retailers, we would have got orders for 1'000's of pairs of each cut. That would have meant that we would not have been able to make anything else out of 21oz denim for the whole of 2023. Given that we constantly get grief (in a nice way) from our retailers because we don't have a regular supply of jeans in our signature denim, we decided that throttling supply further was just not an option. We very briefly considered doing smaller runs and just offering them through IHUK, but very quickly killed that idea, not offering the anny jeans to retailers AND diverting production from jeans that they want but can't get enough of would have been rude at best.
When @Alex and I were in Japan with Haraki a few weeks ago, we spent a considerable amount of time with mills, fabric suppliers and workshops working out ways to increase production (of all things IH). We believe we have some options and should start seeing positive results in early/mid 2023.
We are so sorry that you non-634 cut people will not get an anny jean in your preferred cut, but we simply could not work out a way of doing that without causing major issues that would have had knock-on effects for a long time.

[mention]Megatron1505 [/mention] just a follow up, my daughter loved Tommy’s Sportster tee and now it is my cousin’s daughter who loves it as well. Thanks again!
I love the 634 and look forward to it.

I’m starting to mentally plan for Gosport and I have some questions…
-Who else is arriving on Wednesday?
-Anyone planning on visiting London? Katie has never been so we want to go on Thursday morning. I told her I don’t want to miss happy hour should any guests or crew be so inclined.
-Will we need any cash or can we get by with cards?
-Will we get any more info on the tattoos? (eg. price, designs etc.)
-Would anyone other than me find it helpful to have a list of the attendees’ real names matched with their forum names?
I’m sure I’ll think of other questions.

Cards should be fine everywhere, other than perhaps the tattooist. We will release more info when we get some from him. @Olly can you check in please?

We're arriving on Friday night in Gosport, staying Fri and Saturday night for the anniversary, and then heading to Glastonbury later on Sunday. Then we'll be in London Mon or Tues thru the following Sunday.

I‘ll stay in London from Tuesday through Friday, before Pipo @don_pipone completes the Munich Connection and we‘ll head to Gosport together.
First time UK visitor here, so looking forward to explore London.I’d totally be up for Happy Hour action on Thursday
