Not even close. You see broken threads and actual holes appearing long before a proper blowout.

Very good, thanks

G, did H quietly update the 634S? There are clearly tucked in belt loops on the 634S and 634S-B:

Pics from H-San's Boss blog.

Yep.  I'm sure I mentioned it a few months ago….

Nice! Is the 634-XHS to follow?

[Giles]

Possibly…..I leave that up to H.  It means a pretty large change to process and has a lot of knock-on implications.

REALLY random question:

@Giles before IH, what other brands were you in to?

[Giles]

Whatever half decent jeans I could find,  Brand did not particularly matter.

Patagonia and Ex Officio for outdoor and fishing gear
Canali suits because I was a corporate arsehole
Sage Fishing rods
Charlton fishing reels
Mercedes cars

Is that what you meant?

That's a good enough answer.

I just recall you selling off shine Flat Head sweaters.

Wasn't trying to start a "brand war" our anything, lol

I represented Flat Head outside of Japan and US for a while.  When I got serious traction with IH, I had to give up The Flat Head gig, I just could not give the brand the attention it deserved.  I am still great friends with Kobayashi san and his crew and still pop up to Nagano once in a while.

Have plenty of brand new with tags size 33 TFH jeans if people are interested….

Ha ha. It wasn't love it was a relationship of convenience.

I'll check out what styles I have when I go into the office.  All about 8 years old…..

Guess folks who'd like a high rise are out…

Giles: hypothetical question you probably don't know the answer of but what the hey… If the grey 816 whipcords come to fruition, what colour thread would be used for the stitching?.. Both brown and olive use grey stitching... Kinda hoping it'll be olive...

Oh why is that?  Are there no FH models with a higher rise?
