@Giles:

… Have you ever seen the look that Haraki can give when he thinks you have just asked the stupidest fucking question in the world.....

[Giles]

Not far off…...

[Kasi]

Maybe this one is the right one.  ???

[dinobarnesberlin]

Who knows?

Never say Never

“You been eating nuts or something..?“
@Kasi Im allergic to nuts ! 

[neph93]

This has got me thinking about all the material this design would look great in. Tan/camel kersey spings to mind, or the new grey.

@dinobarnesberlin

Ha ha let you work out what a nut is…

General design question. Have you ever thought about making the placket on your shirts slightly longer? (As much as I love IH westerns I find, particularly for the warmer weather shirts, the placket is not quite long enough for me to roll the sleeves up which I typically do in warm weather.)

There are some things about Harakis aesthetic that I just dont't even try and question. There will be a reason it is why it is, it may be an illogical reason, but it is what it is…..If we try and design by committee, we risk stripping out his design DNA....

[Jett129]

While Haraki’s reasoning may seem illogical to us,he seems to have the utmost passion for what he does,and I wouldn’t think that any reason,he might have come by,wasn’t extremely  well thought out.

I’ve just read the Shinayaka thread and I’m now wondering if there has ever been a conversation regarding Kevlar jeans, specifically for riding bikes.

Ignition Works maybe?

[neph93]

There’s been conversations about it, but never anything to suggest it is on H’s radar. I think he’s old school when it comes to that level of protection.

This is a thought I've had recently: Could IH make a duck/denim hybrid fabric that uses the same dye/yarns as the classic 17oz brown duck, but twill weave it into a denim? I understand that duck is necessarily a plain weave, but would it be a worthwhile experiment to make into a twill/denim weave with the same yarn? Or an even heavier weight one, such as a 21oz "duck brown" denim?  On a related note, any thoughts of making a heavier weight (21+oz) standard duck canvas?

[neph93]

@Costch I like the idea of brown denim and it has been aired here before. As for heavyweight duck it was done about seven years ago in a parafin-coated 22oz. I was not around then but would have loved a pair.
