IHSH-216-NAV - Heavy Moleskin CPO Shirt - Navy
-
@AdamC what makes this shirt for you? And also curious to your other two choices from the top 3 while on that topic!
-
@phoenixinflight he's on vacation at the moment, so he'll get back to you next week!

-
@phoenixinflight the fabric is just so soft to touch but with serious heft still. The way the creases set in, and I love the camel colour. Obviously the navy has the same hand and heft
At the time I said top 3 because I didnt want to jump the gun and say number 1 as knew there would be others I forgot! At the moment, this is my favourite shirt I own
-
My favourite shirt is always the one that is forgotten in the closet when I have bought a few newer ones. One day, I’ll rummage through and see it. Wear it for a day and ask myself why I stopped wearing it, forgetting about the new ones…
It’s a vicious cycle.

@AdamC hope you enjoyed your time off mate! I'm looking forward to any updates and cool we get an even heavier fabric with this next run. Do you find the wind resistance to be quite effective? I'm really hoping to get some function from this when wind chill is making the day feel colder than it is. The camel looks like it'll be such a versatile colour for layering underneath and will especially pop with denim bottoms due to the contrast. Are you typically just rocking a tee with it?
-
@goosehd oh dear. The more IH shirts I see, the more I understand how this could become a problem haha
-
@phoenixinflight Yeah I just wear it with a tee, and it definitely has great wind resistance
-
@Bailey just confirming what @Vik mentioned in the Camel Moleskin CPO thread that the camel is due earlier than the navy, i.e in the upcoming months? When I read your comment about the ETA I assumed it was for both colourways. Just getting my ducks in a row financially if the camel is indeed coming soon
-
@phoenixinflight they went into production in April, so I would expect them to be here end of year/early next to be honest. Once we get another schedule update, we can give a more accurate ETA

-
@phoenixinflight Hi mate, apologies for any confusion or misinterpretation of our reply in the CAM thread, but these are likely expected to both fall into next year, currently speaking.

@phoenixinflight said in IHSH-216-NAV - Heavy Moleskin CPO Shirt - Navy:
@AdamJ thanks for the clarification. Thought it was most likely that the colours would be in production and released together, so just a (hopeful) misunderstanding on my part.
They can't get made together, we only have capacity to run one type of shirt at a time through the workshop (it's more efficient to set up the machines for one unique product). Then they have to be QC'd twice (once at the workshop and once by Iron Heart in Kojima). So everything gets made serially, the only way (and we do do this sometimes/when we can), is to hold one product back until the other is available, but we have space limitations in Japan and UK, so sometimes we just can't hold onto one product, whilst we wait for an associated colour/style to be completed.

@Giles Fascinating! As always, thanks for clarification and insight.
