Random questions to which you seek an answer

I wonder how long until I get a blow out? Hopefully I can get another 5 months out of these before I need to do some reinforcements. I'm going to be so busy at work the next 5 months. I won't be home much. It's only February and I'm already out on 5 jobs.

Only on the grey and black buffalo check (IHSH-131). I used black thread and threw a few stitches at each end of the relevant button holds. Takes a bit of time, boring af, but a simple, near invisible fix that does the job.

^ I did this same thing to an old IHSH-46 I had a few years ago (pics in the alterations thread) - it kept the buttons closed and kept the older threads from starting to break.

Anyone out there have a photo of a chain stitch hem where the stitch runs off the edge of the hem?

I believe Nudie used to do this, maybe Trophy Denim too.

Like this?

That's from the Studio D'Artisan Tokushima jeans, 2016 version.  The pic came from Heddels.

@Giles what was the name of the now defunct brand from Haraki san? There was a pic of a jacket you cherished, if I recall… (Not TW)

FreeBee?

[Giles]

Yep….

[UnTucked]

Yup, that's it. Maddy was curious about some IH history

There should probably be a new thread called "Random questions that I'm best off not knowing the answer to". This would be in there…

This pic is taken from Haraki-san's FB. It looks like a long wallet. Is it? Does anyone have details? And here's the really dangerous one, does it come in some kind of tan?

Isn´t this that Wallet: http://www.ironheart.jp/IH-WP/prdcts/ihg-003/ but with red Stitching ?

Long wallet, available in black or burgundy.

So it’s the same materials as the IHG-02? Which means it costs about 1000USD I guess. Oh well… [emoji23]

[Giles]

Yep

[neph93]

One day then, maybe.

So it’s settled then! 

[neph93]

Noooo… I have the IHG-02 which I love. I’d have to move that on to part fund this, and I’m not interested in that. Yet.

[Matty123]

Of course not of course not. Yet
