@Oaktavia Wanted to post this as a reply in the 2023 WAYWT thread but it was locked. Anyway great minds think alike. Vest courtesy of Ortega’s Weaving Shop in CHIMAYO,NM.

As promised,my attempt at IH Triple Denim. Back in Black,Black,Black!

Out in the wild today. Summit of Cadillac Mountain/Acadia National Park. IHSH-295BB,IH55521S-OD

@Mizmazzle Not trying to one up you but I too was wearing my Olive Green Serge shirt and had what I thought was the best Corned Beef ever at a local BBQ place.

@AdamJ Can’t thank you enough for bringing the shirt to switch. Fit is perfect. And for the rest of you. Yes I did see Alex,AJ and Haraki,yes I did see Fall/Winter 24, all I can say is that we’re all in a lot of trouble!

Here ya go.

Thirteen consecutive years on the IH Forum as of today. While the cast of characters has changed,over the years,the vibe on The Forum has not. As time goes on I appreciate it more and more.

Been on a real B&W kick lately.

Over the years,from time to time,Forum Members have gotten IH gear to wear/fade and document. While there have been quite a few who did really great jobs at fading,I don’t think anyone has done as good a job at documenting as @Oaktavia. Being an artist he has an innate sense of composition,and it shows whenever he posts updates on his progress. Also his willingness to answer,and be knowledgeable about every aspect of the process,has substantially raised the bar of IH Sample fading. The other guy whose name I can’t totally remember,and who did a really great job,might have been a landscaper or something like that. He worked outside spitfiredealer I think was his username.

@Mizmazzle Hiking,photography and some star gazing as my wife is into astronomy and Arches is a designated Dark Sky Park. The New Moon is coming up and we planned the trip around that as at that time the park will be at its darkest.

Love,Love,Love Little Feat. Saw them a few times at The Beacon in NYC,with the original line up. Always a great show.

@Mizmazzle That’s my problem with a lot of podcast hosts,and I tend to give him an easier pass than some others, and yes this is his first special. On another note. Currently in your time zone. In Provo,UT on my way to Moab.

@Mizmazzle Not sure about the “Good News” unless you’re referring to Dean Delray’s special which I thoroughly enjoyed,but full disclosure…I’m a Dean Delray fan in general. Like his podcast and his stand up. For the last couple of years he’s been Bill Burr’s opener,which has definitely paid off. When it comes to clothes/denim he’s one of us. Had Giles on his podcast way back when. Was hoping he’d be wearing IH in the special. He does thank Shipjohn in the credits. Several years ago I was in Selfedge with Alex and AJ and didn’t realize that Dean Delray was in there same time as us.

@Bridger I definitely agree with what you’re saying and have even thought that at times,but never thought it was an option.

No love for Dean Delray here?

@goosehd From One Love to One Draw…Happy 420!

@Choko I bet it sounds great as well. If you ever feel like posting a little video,I’d love to hear it idling.

Really enjoying North of North on Netflix. After I posted this we watched the last 2 episodes. And because of the way it ended I would downgrade my recommendation. All in all it was good/OK.

@wjw said in Ask Giles and/or Alex Anything:

@Jett129 all about the snaps

Supposedly snaps were originally put on shirts so that when cowboys were out on the range for extended periods of time,they wouldn’t have to sew buttons on shirts,should they come off. Oh Snap!
