@endo @markus_berlin_ @Luijim78 Thanks guys for the warm welcome!

Greetings,
Apologies for a long lurking period before this intro. I have been accumulating IH jeans, shirts and vests for a few years now. So happy that I stumbled across IH after trying other brands. The quality of IH products and exceptional customer service blew me away and this Forum has a collection of interesting people!
I have been retired a few years now and enjoying wearing whatever I want after decades of dressy, conformist work clothing. I live in central Virginia and am enjoying rural life while also doing a fair amount of travel.. I do a lot of gardening, photography and fiddling with my car and guitar.
On a recent Japan trip my wife and I visited the IH shop in Kojima and hope to see the UK crew in person someday.
Finally I’ll get cracking on some pics- perhaps to celebrate my incoming IH-526SVod.
Thank you all for being such a great resource on IH. -

Hi everyone. I'm new to IH (a colleague pointed me towards the brand in March) but I've already spent an embarrassing amount of time (and $$$) delving down the rabbit hole. There's not much I can say about IH that hasn't already been said, but it's worth mentioning that this forum is AWESOME. What an incredible resource! Thanks to everyone who makes this place what it is.
A bit about me: I live in Houston, TX (not a very IH-friendly climate unfortunately, but thank goodness for air conditioning). My main hobby is parkour, which I've been dabbling in for nearly 2 decades. One of my favorite parkour movements is a "kong" vault to a "precision" landing - typically abbreviated as a "kong-precision", which hopefully explains my username. Now that I've been indoctrinated into denimland, I am finding myself curious as to what parkour fades might look like...

@KongPrecision nice to meet you and welcome among us, I'm Luigi

Hello.
Punks not dead.
All my life I lusted after a pair of engineer boots (In my youth everyone wanted to be Joe Strummer!). Of course this led to selvedge denim and now I’m down the rabbit hole…..
I stand at an espresso machine all day long. Every time I hear loose change jingling into the tip jar on the counter I imagine how much closer I am to a new, beautifully made bit of kit. I suppose it comes from being the youngest of 4 brothers and wearing ‘hand me downs’ most of my childhood (believe me, there wasn’t much life left in the clothes when it was my time to wear them). Now I only wear the best quality clothes I can find……enter IH.
Funny, I was ragging the arse out of my motor bike the other day on the way to work ( everyone who owns a bike has to ride it like a dick at least once a week, it’s the law!) and it suddenly occurred to me I was wearing my new IH jeans. Stamped on the anchors and rode the rest of the way like a vicar on Sunday.
Cheers.
Vince.
