          Is there any way to find a sizing chart for a particular item from a previous run? For example, I got my IHSH-288-IND from the June 2022 restock, and I’d love to be able to look at that specific sizing chart. Thanks.

            No, sorry. But if you've got it, you know the measurements, no?

              @Giles I do indeed, but I’m in the process of moving country so my warm clothing is “at home”. Just thinking to compare the release I bought vs the recent restock 😅. Thanks for the response.

                Keeping sizing tables for all the iterations would be so tricky. Also, we don't identify products by which run they were made. So that further complicates shit. Sorry

                          @Giles Hell yes! All the grape goodness always! Also also, I didn't realize the jacket you were wearing at the SE Party was a throwback Al's Attire one! VERY LEGIT! I thought we were getting a sneak peek at something from SS2026 lol

                            Forgive me if this has been asked before but, what exactly makes indigo special? We have black because it's just indigo that has been chemically treated... But how come we don't have red, greens, yellow dyed garments that fade like indigo does?

                            From research I understand that indigo is a "chunky" particle that just kind of coats surface of the cotton fibers, and thus doesn't penetrate and can be worn away. But why aren't there other dyes that have this property, or are they just not feasible/affordable/desirable?

                              @freepickin I suspect you're correct in that it's not desirable, indigo denim has been popular for a long time and there is likely little need to experiment and pay R&D costs to produce the yellow or green equivalent!

                              The devil is in the detail..

                                    …which are more complicated and use more fabric than tube tops so I’m not sure why we don’t see more of those.

                                    Well that paints a nasty picture

                                          It is a color that has no obvious source in nature. You don't just take a flower or berry and boil it down into dye. The process of creating natural indigo dye is a complex chemistry equation. Even when the dye is ready it produces a green fabric that turns to indigo after you pull it from the solution. How the process was even discovered is a bit mind blowing. The story of indigo is pretty fascinating and definitely worth watching a video or two. Indigo is indeed a very special color.
