Iron Heart x Division Road VA Launch Event - August 26th & 27th

[Giles]

On a positive note, I have had a lovely Thai breakfast in the Cathay Pacific lounge and a full English breakfast in the BA lounge.  Next stop, the American Airlines lounge…....

[Giles]

Went to the AA lounge to find out that the 12:15 which had been delayed until 14:15 has now been cancelled.  AA lounge was heaving with pissed-off travellers, so we did not hang around.  Went to the AA desk in Terminal 3 and there was a queue of another 200 pissed-off travellers, we decided to go out through security and recheck in for the 16:00 flight and re-enter the airport.  Luckily, we met a brilliant security guard who told us of a little-known AA desk in another part of T3, he actually took us there and there was zero queue - at that point, we high-fived anything with a pulse.  Rechecked on the 16:00 and in the Qantas lounge…...

Shit day for Monday..

[goosehd]

Have you had a cocktail or beer yet?

[Giles]

What do you think?

[Giles]

@goosehd

Qantas does not really start working until 17:30 (most flights from here to Oz are overnight), subsequently, the food available is rubbish…...

So in 20 or so, we will go back to Cathay Pacific and have a proper meal

Last time I flew Quantas it was like a flashback. I didn’t feel like livestock and I had a dinner—with dessert and a beer—from Perth to Sydney. A better flashback than seeing ashtrays on seat arms for sure.

Had the best service, food and drinks on a flight to Singapore with Emirates . outstanding !
And only aroung 100 people on the A380 , had a full row of seats for myself. brilliant trip 

[goosehd]

That looks like a proper start…

Are you flying from Heathrow?  Shite weather or shite everything else...

[Giles]

Flying from Heathrow.  No given reasons.

Now back in AA lounge, having feasted in Cathay…..

@Kasi:

Shit day for Monday..

What are you taking about?  They’re on a pub crawl.  Best Monday ever!

[goosehd]

@Matt  Now that's looking at the world through rose coloured glasses, and I like the way you think.

[goosehd]

…and I see @Giles is currently logged on…hopefully from the seat on the plane for the 16:00 departure.

[Giles]

All good. Got here to find that everyone else had been on a more intense pub crawl than us

[Giles]

@ The Fields ……

[Giles]

Yesterday - Me and P on the road back to Charlotte.  May as well carb the hell up…

Sniped from DR's Instagram posts. I am particularly interested in the SS shirts with the slits on bottom seams, and the second flannel back which I learned is another Fox Brothers collab. That blue/brown/cream (?) scheme is elevated af.

can't wait to learn more when it's appropriate.

Quoted for truth!

Almost getting IHSH-193 vibes from one of those farther back in the rack…

So I saw these in the flesh this weekend.  The line-up is pretty freakin amazing.  DR's location is also freakin amazing and it's not even close to done.  Just a great weekend meeting some great folks who all happen to like high-quality garments.

No pics of any of the fox brother's garments will do them justice.  The material on all of them is special in a way that needs to be felt/worn.  Really what struck me about this line-up in general is the sheer range of materials!  Dobby, double-cloth, herringbones, broken twill, overdye, oiled…  It was almost dizzying.
