Has IH ever done gloves?
I could imagine some seriously warm leather gloves for riding or city use in winter or unlined ones that would be great for summer rides
-
Crew neck sweater and sweatpants with the same material as hoodies.

H did a few for the Japanese market. We did not bring them to UK because they were all so small….
@iammortalcombat
I have two pairs of the unlined ones, both black and brown. Giles graciously ordered them from IHJP at my request. I love them, the stitching and the leather are top notch, buttery smooth. But as Giles mentions they come up smallish…I’ve had to work on mine to progressively get some stretch while wearing them for initial short periods and moving up to longer ones. This plan has worked…they are comfortable enough now for a 2 hour stretch between gas stops on the bike.
The tightest sizing appears to be the length of the thumbs…I sometimes need to pull on the tip of the glove’s thumb while riding to relieve the pressure buildup. But i recently did a 20-day, 4500 km trip using my black pair and they did fine! -

I would def need some size as I tend to fall between L-XL American sizing gloves and thumbs/palms being too short are always the issue for me.
Would have been nice to have some city wear ones for this winter but I can always look at finally spending the money on some Hestra

A western version of the IHSH-308-IND
An indigo sashiko line covering the major jean cuts and a modified type 3
A 21oz indigo x back modified type 3
A beefy wool button neck sweater with elbow patches -

I like that @LewisStonehouse and I'll repeat my past interest in a houndstooth, with the addition of indigo into the mix.

@Paul9221 I think I read somewhere that it isn’t Haraki’s cuppa tea when it was suggested a while back.

- Possibly, views people?
Yes. Absolutely yes. And I know they are unpopular but it would look awesome with black diamond snaps.
Yes on the Western version of a 308, but prefer Pearl HD snaps. Sorry @neph93. That said, if it came with black diamond snaps, I could swap them out, so both parties are happy!
