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

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!

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

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.

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.

[JunkPants]

@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).

[Germinal]

@JunkPants this is a good option. Thank you.

[Giles]

I don't think it was s design choice as such, I think it is a nod to the original.

That said, I don't like them flapping around and find them super annoying. So I cinch the hem to the diameter I like (I'm never going to need to adjust it, the way I wear stuff anyway), knot the cord at the cord exit points and then cut off the dangly bits.

[singletrack]

A unique and interesting M65 variant....I just registered for an inventory notification!

Be careful doing that, as I’m finding that as we get older there are a lot more dangly bits that can get in the way

It’s a great looking coat. I am eager to see the measurements. Worth every penny if it fits
