TFH t-shirt, IHDR-502ib - 14oz Selvedge Denim Cargo Pants - Indigo/Black

IHC-06
IHSH-68
816DD

This is my fourth Tour and I asked myself … why am I doing this to myself again? There is a simple answer: I still enjoy the forum, the people and the friendly atmosphere!
What drew me in here?
-Two Patagonia shirts I bought in the early 90‘ and then disappeared ten years later.
-Two selvedge Edwin jeans made in Japan, received as a gift from my cousin in the mid 90‘. One of them still existing.
-When I found out about Lightning and an addicted Japanese scene with passion for handmade things.
…
Hopefully I can find the time to tell some of this storylines.
Tour jacket paired today my first IH shirt, the IHSH-13.
Bought, because this lost Patagonia shirts where always in my mind and this 10oz selvedge chambray was the first matching a decade later.

After all this months of waiting to contribute, thought I’ve the right words to start and the best first picture to show …. but I’ve not!
First leg in here started glorious with @denim-dawg and @Stitch . Their contribution set standards and ended up in the Arctic Adventure Series.
Without @neph93 , no Heritage Tour!
And after all this conversations with @Heavy_blue , I can say he is a great member of this forum. Hope he stays!
Came home from a trip and had exactly a few minutes to get warm with the Heritage Tour Jacket, before I left to see a football match.

There was a Schmidt Shirt Tour deep in the forum sometimes back.
No time on my hands, so this was a planned result to clear my head within moments.
And my most beloved game when the time is clicking …

T is in my family since the late eighties, IHSH-13 since 2013.

@Jerry3times I haven’t handled the fabric of the 424 in person. But referring to the pictures @Nick provided in the thread, they both evolve beautiful and fast.
This is what Adam Welch wrote about:
“The complexity of the weave, the cut, the luxuriously light yet impervious fabric of the 424, and the fabulous fade potential make this a competitive complement to the 12oz Wabash. Any conscious connoisseur would undeniably need both.”
To dig deeper, look at this faded Wabash or this indigo Herringbone.
“Live your life and wear your clothes hard!”
Love this Heritage Heaven Tour.
Wabash => Bleached Dots
424 => Interwoven Stripe
The twill and the herringbone have different fade behavier.


@NickD
GraemE’s version of the cover is the original from 1974.
In 1975 the Autobahn symbol appeared for the first time.
In white on a French rerelease and in blue on an Italian for example.
The full blue Autobahn cover coexisted from there on with the original.
Only nerd stuff, because tracks and music kept the same ;-).


@GraemeE Nosfreatu is in my top three of Popol Vuh. Right behind Affenstunde (set aside for a rehearing now).
And then there is this box set N.2 I’ve never heard through (beside of Seligpreisung).

@indigo_nico Love digging into the unknown.
