IHM-42-IND - 16oz Natural Indigo Selvedge Denim M65 Field Jacket

Don't know how many of these constitutes Limited,but it might be really,cool if they were numbered. I'm ,totally, clueless on how easy or difficult that would be to do,or how expensive it would be to do.

@Jett129 I may be wrong (@AdamJ @AdamC), but I think there are approx. 100 jackets total. I believe it was mentioned in the release video.

[Jett129]

Also,I’d bet guys would line up to do a Tour with one of these. Some of those MRMF guys would absolutely kill it with one of these.

[gazza61]

if you look on ihuk it says 60 available.

[Jett129]

@gazza61 How does that fact make people feel on wether or not numbering them is a good idea,if it’s deemed to be feasible?

[goosehd]

@gazza61 Good catch!! Thank you

But that number is already minus the retailers, so a hundred may be about right.

At minute 25:02 - 25:15 of the collection reveal live stream video, Alex says: "It takes about a year to make enough denim to make about a 100 of these jackets. So the numbers are gonna be super limited. We are just gonna be releasing a set number globally which is around a 100 in one year".

@cityofdelusion knew I wasn’t completely imagining it. Thank you!

[Jett129]

@goosehd I was so ,blown away by the jacket that I couldn’t hear at that point.

[gazza61]

why do you need them numbered,just enjoy the jacket.

Quite often limited editions of things are numbered,wether it be bourbon or clothing. Many years ago I had a limited edition 75th Anniversary Schott Bros. Jacket,and while it wasn’t numbered I had a certificate of authenticity stating what number the jacket was,which helped justify the price I was selling it for 15 years later. I think there were some jeans last year that were signed by Haraki and numbered. Thought that was a nice touch that may have contributed to some peoples enjoyment of the jeans. Just a thought.

[gazza61]

Your receipt is proof,if you are worried about the price maybe this is not the jacket for you,as I said it is only a number it does not add anything to the beauty of the jacket.

[Jett129]

@gazza61 This has nothing to do with the esthetic beauty of the jacket,or the price. Just something that I think would be cool. We can agree to disagree. Highly unlikely it will happen anyway.

@Jett129 I hear what you’re saying, Jett. I like the idea of numbering limited edition items. Adds a bit of character to the run and makes it feel a little more special.

Further…the idea of a world tour for this jacket would be badass!! I’d love to take a leg. Honestly, at first this jacket didn’t call out to me. Def growing on me more and more.

[Germinal]

I love it, it looks great.
However I am the only one questioning the design choice of having the tightening ropes hanging down ?
Is there anyway to have them hidden ?
Cut them ?

[goosehd]

@Germinal I’m sorry, but don’t see what you’re referring to. Can you show us?

[Germinal]

@goosehd yes of course. These

[goosehd]

@Germinal Thank you and I understand now.

@Germinal Personally I just removed those from the hem on my M65s, never use them. Kept the drawstrings at the waist though. (Just untie one end and pull it out).
