A very good friend of mine finally tied the knot this summer. I gave the happy couple an Indigofera wool blanket and leather holder. Here Alana is looking out over the Dorset Coast one late summer's evening.
She's a marine biologist so I must ask her what she was actually thinking about when this was taken. The other people in the distance almost look painted onto the photo in a Lowry kind of way. Love this image.

It's looking chilly tomorrow in Scotland. We think of everything you know.
The Mrs is highly confused why I've suggested lunch tomorrow for the first time this year.

The iconic piece of the season from Indigofera has to be The Gunpowder Selvedge Ranch Jacket. It uses the popular 14 oz. denim, dyed black from the constituent part of gunpowder itself: salpeter and charcoal. The sherpa lining harks back to an era of Trucker Jackets from the 60s/70s and is sure to keep you warm on the coldest of days.
James is 188 cm tall and weighs 83 kg. He is wearing a medium jacket.

The same Gunpowder selvedge is used in the Gunnar Vest collaboration with Burg Und Schild. This is a Type 111 style vest with Japanese blanket lined pocket flaps and Indigofera logo'd copper snap buttons.
James wears a medium vest (together with a large Iron Heart IHSH-107 Red)

It seemed right to do our first jean collaboration with Iron Heart in the same year we opened our store in London.
Giles & Paula's support since we started has been invaluable.
I also wanted to celebrate opening our brick and mortar in the heart of London where we can bring new customers to Iron Heart and to the other superb brands we carry.
I wanted to combine one of IH's most popular fits with the unbeatable 21 oz signature denim. So here we have it the IHXRH-666S. The jeans should be with us later this week. Many thanks to @vanOlzon for the patch design.

Nice work, nice fit and nice patch!
Some fine denim lurkin' neath the gherkin (though ye are probably miles away!)

21oz devils, damn that sounds great. Great patch too, an all around winner!

The Mister Freedom Sportsman Shirt Indigo Métisse is a fabric rich in texture and deep in colour. It consists of a 9.7 oz. indigo dyed twill blend, 70% cotton and 30% linen. The yarn core is white, the indigo outer has a purple blue shade typical of early French indigo work clothes. This shirt will fade with wear. Unsanforized, it will shrink 0.5" overall in the chest and 0.75" in length.

The Lot 64 "Californian" Okinawa Jean is a 14 oz. left-hand twill indigo denim with white and green line selvedge ID. Milled in Japan on narrow shuttle looms, from a blend of 50% Okinawa recycled sugar cane fibers and 50% cotton.
The denim harks back to the vintage 1950s era whilst the cut with its medium rise and slight taper is a nod to the 1960s. Mister Freedom admits he has gone Beatnik with this creation. The details that have gone into creating this jean are what you expect from MF from the flat black-painted 13 star front button, the camo pocket bags, to the drab olive colour constructional stitching.
