I’ve had a few pairs of White’s over the years. These are my favorite and getting a lot of wear in my rotation lately.

Looks like a cowboy boot day...

It’s bib lounging kind of day…

I own one of these as well. Since I live in Southern California, it does not see a lot of rain and haven't had to do anything with it in the way of maintenance.

A couple of data points not directly related to this jacket, but maybe helpful. I do have rough out on a couple pairs of Wesco boots and they have seen some rain/weather. I use a suede brush from time to time and do not apply any treatment to them. They are holding up pretty darn well. Additionally, TJ at The Shop Vancouver has commented a couple times on how he takes care of his rough out chore shirts. He openly states that most of his leather and rough out jackets sees a lot rain. His approach is to maintenance is no fuss, do nothing and beat the shit out of it approach. Based on seeing the many many pictures and videos he posts of his gear, it looks like they are holding up well to the conditions with cool looking patina.

I took a flyer on purchasing these. Not my normal cut and not denim. Couldn't be more pleased I did...

I am one of those niche vest guys. One of the first non-jeans IH pieces I picked up over a decade ago was the IHV-02. At the time, it was sold out and I had to wait for what seemed like a year for a restock. It eventually restocked (after pinging Giles multiple times about when) and I picked it up. Still have it and wear it with regularity to this day. This new IHV-50 may be vying for the top spot in my vest rotation. That is assuming I am able to nab one on release day.

These aren't my jeans. They are my son's. I am admittedly terrible at fading denim - too many pairs in the rotation and I am too easy on them. He, on the other hand, is pretty good at it. For those of you wondering what the 17oz natural indigo denim is capable of, these are a pretty good indicator.

Basic and not flashy, but it serves the purpose well. I’ve not been able to wear my wedding ring for years because my finger outgrew it! After a couple of years thinking about this GAH ring, I made the purchase. The wife is happy.

No more having to ask the misses to carry phones, money clip, glasses, etc. around for me.  This bag is exactly what I was looking for.
