Will the new 24s also have the crinkly effect? They look more plain on the Pictures. I like the colours.

It's an Alexander Leathers/Iron Heart C3.  It has an Iron Heart label.  I don't sell it in Europe.

IH = TW = bloody brilliant, as Sarina would say.

Also: those (linnen?) chambrays FH posted…

leans forward…

It makes sense in so many ways.  It's easier for Haraki, it's easier for us, it's easier for the retailers and there is no confusion for you - same great products, same great brand pedigree….

Fantastic and really good decision!!!!

[Giles]

@Seul Those are a made from very poly biased poly-cotton mix.  Apparently they do really well in Japan, probably won't waste my time bringing them out of Japan…

I like having the different personalities of the two brands. Now I know it's easier, makes more sense, and will prob increase sales (TW releases tend to sell a little slower it seems), but I'll miss TW. Is there a way to incorporate that badass TW tag at all? I might miss that the most TBH!

[Giles]

We'll see what H comes up with

it took me quite awhile to get what the breaking news post was saying. even after reading all the post till i read this and i finally understood the breaking news post by giles…

More chaos at the ticketing machines….

A few weeks ago, Chnanon from Pronto posted a pic of this Freitag bag.  I simply had to get hold of it. 

Sarina checking out the look…

And we added to Sarina's mug collection…

And H loved his new book on Choppers

And let the lesson begin

It's always a delight spending time with the IH Japan crew, and for me extra special to see some faces I hadn't seen since my last visit eighteen months ago.

I was able at last to give lovely Gon a big hug and thank her properly for stitching my wonderful forum blanket gift
