Bonus a couple days ago (happy to be able to wear the size 29 21 oz black 555s for the first time in a few years, even if barely haha):

One Star Jacket, ~9 years old (currently in that few months a year I can actually wear it)
555-03 21 oz black fades to grey, bought 8.5 years ago, but one size down, so haven't seen a ton of wear

Still a favourite.

I recently bought a fixer-upper house in Sydney and nearly all my budget is going into doing the renovation the right way. Haven't bought anything beyond a couple tees in the last 8 months or so because my closet is already so full of amazing IH pieces. But, I saw this in my inbox this morning and it was 100% me, so I grabbed one. Guess I can save money on lighting somewhere to justify it.

Why isn't this shirt more popular? I don't think there's even competition for me that this is my favorite IH denim shirt. I wore it hiking Angel's Landing today with my 18 oz 555s. Sorry, the ensemble didn't make it up Observation Point as well, as that was more of a speed-oriented running outing.

Long time no post. Need a better picture, but got a new pair of these and will be the daily wear pair (hopefully I manage to wear jeans more this upcoming summer here in Syddney). Size 30, fits well, a touch snug in the waist on first wear, so will be perfect after a day or so. Worn here with snuff suede Alden Indy on plaza and a 7.5 oz 555 tee. Have converted 95% to 14 oz since moving here 3.5 years ago and happier for it in the weather we have.

Oops. Never posted pics. Really like this one:

Bonus cat to match the cat hat (he has a movement disorder, hence the odd looking leg stance):

Just grabbed the last small and quite like it. The primary use aside from a warm winter jacket will be high altitude winter camping, and I wanted a jacket that will function but also look good. I'm curious about the fabric though. Pertex and eVent are competing brands, but both are stated. It appears to be eVent based on tags, but Pertex Shield is named in a few places. My impression is that IH switched from Pertex Shield to of of the event DV fabrics (my older IHJ-11, for example, has a Pertex Shield tag where this has the eVent waterproof tag). Am I misunderstanding something? Which specific eVent one is it this, btw?

Cheesing it up:

Some more wear…

I've had this for ~3 1/2 years now. It's probably been worn about 150-175 times in that time and hasn't been washed yet. Looks good so far, but still has a looooong way to go!

Cool, thanks. It looks like the fabric section online still says Pertex, btw.

This is awesome! I've always had my wife take care of repairs for me and probably won't ever need to ship anything back since she's so capable, but keeping products alive and out of landfills is fantastic.

Wore this to Oktoberfest today. Don't worry; some poor-quality lederhosen are coming tomorrow. 

Got it; love it. Pics to come. This will work well for me to dress up what is frequently perhaps an overly casual look while working at a university in a hot, very humid environment (a lot of 6.5 and 7.5 oz tees with shorts).

Thanks @Giles. I'm very happy with it.

Saw this one in the catalogue today when receiving my indigo sashiko blazer. Beautiful! This is my favourite of the upcoming season!

This is starting to get some pretty cool fading. 

Yeah, yeah, I say this about most of the stuff IH makes, but damn is this a great one, and I'm glad I bought it. Fabric is super awesome, and seeing it up close in person is really neat. Fit is money. I like how slim the shirting I've gotten this year has been. Keep up the good work, guys! Better pics to come!
