IHW-01 (Melton Wool shirt)
-
I got this jacket on a whim, thinking I was going to use this for mostly casual wear, but this jacket is easily the most versatile jacket in my closet for both hanging out on the porch having a single malt with a bud or heading over to an inspection in my shirt and khakis
For those of you who don't have this jacket, you NEED one

I wear it as both a Shirt and a Jacket. More so as a shirt myself (Buttoned Up) and a lot with one of my two IHSH-19's underneath for a little pop of color. This should be dubbed the IHW-01 Versatile Wool Shirt.

They proved super duper popular. We may do another run…G
oh my….
be still my heart.....
now, about that medium orangey color , i actually do realize that certain luxury company out of gay parree' may not appreciate it. my wife made that very clear to me when i brought the idea up. there sure are plenty of hues out there.
i wear this with a wifebeater , 634S, gt's (or flipflops). i originally disliked the pockets, but i am a believer in them but only on this shirt. the fabric is so heavy it supports it. they would suck on teh flannels, i think.
dont change anything but the color! this solid color IH super shirt fills a need for when i cant wear a flannel pattern.
man cannot live on flannel alone.
gee, perhaps other solid color IH shirts?
anybody else dig that idea?
wow, another melton ??? count me in right now.

I don't think the Hermes orange is a patented color. Besides, if you are just a nanometer off on the colorimeter it's not technically the same color anymore. And it would be pretty hard to even get that close in the first place. Can't hurt trying. Now, if you put buttons with Hermes writing on it, you got a problem but not for the color, I'd say. I didn't buy an Hermes orange watchman's cap when I saw it in Venice this November. Could still beat myself for missing out on that. But I had just made so many other purchases, I couldn't really swing it.

got it Lando!
ahhh dunno …... the very idea of the melton in a different color. something significant or some shade so odd as to define the shirt itself...
a pytka blue
cerulian blue
that hermes orange...
a fly yellow
a flat greythat list could just go on and on....
(what type of red?)
now lets not forget that we need to pair it with a HIGH contrast stitching color!
vanilla shirt with red stitching
baby blue with yellow
talk about OPTIONS!
gee, it just bagels the mind.
yup.

Fob, I wish there was. Got a few more L's today, but there are no XL's left anywhere. In point of fact the gauging between the XL and the XXL is not that great. I could just as easily wear an XXL ans I do my XL…G
@shubharamani:
DougNg says these Melton Wool Shirts are cut "big" to begin with.
Yea, an XL on me would've been a more jacket/overshirt type as i'm already XL in other IH. Now i'm debating whether to size down to L to work as a shirt or XXL for a real jacket. I'm guessing if i get XXL, i might even be able to wear the IHSH-08 underneath it.
such a dilemma… ::)
