                That is Daniel Antoni, he was the Flat Head translator, has now moved on to a new job (like yesterday)….Daniel was with us in Zurich and Berlin earlier this year...

                        Interesting Lady for sure. Some of her arts would well go for a tattoo.

                        why so serious?

                            is it the same melton wool used on the black one IHW-06?

                                g, this fabric is insane! really stocked when i got my IHW-06 few days ago!
                                it is so soft so…putain my english!
                                really different for ex. at the IHW-01. absolutely not the same melton.
                                only went to say how much this fabric is beautiful!
                                thanks G.

                                        Aaaaand ordered.  I followed G's lead and went up one from my normal IH size.  Want to be able to wear this comfortably over my heavier IH shirts.

                                            Wearing mine right now and knew that this is an absolutely must have if you into vests. The wool, the chambray lining and overall finish is out of this world. Thx for doing this great stuff Big G and H-san, respect.

                                            I went with my usual small, pics later.

                                            Edit: the vest and me in the shop, wearing a Flanell from Rising Sun in a small as well

                                            I am a slim little guy, 62kg, 173cm.
