IHSH-16 Heavy Chambray Western Shirts

[Giles]

Our shipment of these, and the Meltons (and all those special jeans you ordered - sliver rivets, crotch rivets, special lengths…..) left Japan today.  Hurrah

Hey Shoque, how do I merge this thread with thread 76?

[Giles]

And all will be here tomorrow.  Don't want to disappoint anyone, but the Natural and Khaki Chambrays will only be available through our website…..

[Giles]

One of our customers asked to see an XXL and an XL photographed together for size comparison.  So, below is an XL in natural placed over an XXL in khaki.  Fit pix and more detailed images later…..

[Giles]

Couple of Fit Pix of the Natural and Khaki.  These are XL, I am 6'2" and 175 with a 42" chest….

@PETEROCK1:

just saw pics of the natural one from haraki-san's blog…. ohhhhhhhhh that's so mine!

Did you end up getting the Natural? I have had my eye on this one for some time and would love to see some fit flicks of yours!

[Guest]

I have a black one of these and a red one on the way (both XS, facilitated by G of course). They're beautiful shirts indeed !

[Giles]

Too late Lando.  They've all gone (well, I have 1 S left).  I only got 30 of the Khaki and the Natural made.

I have an S an L and an XL in the Khaki (which personally I prefer to the natural).

I also have 2 Khaki's that did not pass Haraki's QC procedures on their way to me at the mo, an L and an XL.  They have according to Haraki "a small bar caused by weaving problem".  Going to sell for USD170 each shipped.

Good and bad news all at once. You must update the website. I was fooled.

[Beatle]

Hmm..maybe I could fit the S…super tight

[Beatle]

btw - how heavy is heavy in this case? 16oz ?

Beatle, not sure of the exact weight. But it's lighter than the SuperBlack for sure. I can comment since I own both. So, no – it's lighter than 16 oz.

[Giles]

I think haraki told me it was about 13-14.  G

[Beatle]

Maybe 13oz ? I'm sure Giles will post the answer in no time…if it is lighter than 16oz , this could actually work well in he summer

[Beatle]

ah ..Giles is too fast for my typing***

Still pretty fuckin' heavy – especially for a shirt.

[Beatle]

Just think of a summer night on the beach..it's windy…still too heavy ?

Beatle, it'll be fine. I'll wear it all Bay Area Summer long. It's a highly breathable fabric ! You can wear a T underneath, wear it as a "shirt jacket" too.

[Giles]

No next time round, this was an endangered species.  Possibly some sexy new colours in the Fall.  Haraki getting swatches together for me to look at when I see him in May…G
