My first post in this thread to share my new arrival dungarees!

Broken old houses, boring Scottish whisky, weird Japanese denim, all French wine, sad American music, wool socks in summer.
I live in a 15th century “hall house” in Suffolk with my wife and Spaniel. Spend a lot of time in France at my parents 11th century château. Less fairytale castle, more draughty money pit.

RE: Pets
Gus likes cars, doesn’t like when we work on them, and is starting to sleep a lot more now he’s 9. Working Cocker Spaniel. They’re a lot!

RE: Pets
Thought we were likely saying goodbye to Gus a few weeks ago (feat. my 33). He’s fine, I’m poor and this is him chilling completely better.

RE: BROTHERHOOD OF BIB
Thanks to the gent that is @Kasi I am very happy to submit my entry for membership. These arrived today, at exactly the same time as the Birkenstocks. Which is a very happy coincidence, my wife bought me them without her knowing I had ordered these, and certainly not the connection.
I am going to put these both through their paces in an 18 hour drive through France in Thursday. My cream car seats might not thank me.

RE: Watches - another OCD problem
I am not a fan of the Rolex hype. I am a fan of green, and I am yet to find a watch that is as comfortable as a Submariner. Pélagos got close.
I love the invisible micro adjustment on the VC Overseas now. That’s on my list next. That or basically any Grand Seiko.

RE: Watches - another OCD problem
I’ve been into watches longer than any other hobby, even taught myself to service and fix them. Lockdown was pretty dull for me!
In honour of my love of patina, but lack of patience, I am posting my IWC UTC Spitfire in Bronze. Unfortunately it’s got damp so is off for a service next week.
Also featuring Kersey shirt and 25oz 555s.

RE: Introduce Yourself Here
Hi folks. I’m newish here. Been lurking a while.
Over the last 18 months I’ve been on a journey, going from 128kg to 75kg. This meant that in the UK I now have choices with the clothes I can buy rather than just getting anything that’s in a xxl. And I feel nicer wearing them!
I went pretty deep into clothes, getting all nerdy about RRL and SDA, and the ever decreasing size meant I got to try a lot of stuff from loads of brands.
It took me a little while, but I have settled on a weight, and subsequently found IH. The shirts fit me perfectly because at 75kg and 187cm I need those biker sleeves.
So I went on a spree and this is my current collection:
IHSH 330 BLK Raised whipcord
IHSH-208-IND Kersey Western
IHSH 192 UHF The Piglet Western XL
IHSH 33 IND 12oz Denim Western
BS69xSOP420 21oz 777 slim tapered (with IHUK being repaired)
IH-555-XHS 25oz indigo
IH-888s-UHR 21/23oz tag 31 relaxed tapered
SSBS-C4 Good Art Curb A bracelet
RS-M25 Good Art Ring
OGL BeltMy favourites so far are the Kersey and the 25oz 555s. The jeans are hard work but I adore them, the Kersey is a special special shirt, it’s also a fabric named after Kersey, Suffolk which very close to me too, which is nice. Suffolk, UK.

RE: IHW-04 Red Melton Wool Western CPO
Happy to be told I am miles off price-wise. Perhaps I paid too much!

IHW-04 Red Melton Wool Western CPO
This is a catch and release from me. I hoped it would fit, it doesn’t. It’s in magnificent condition, considering these are from 2012 this really can’t have been worn very much and stored well. I can see no marks on it, certainly no moth holes or the like.
Tag size Small
Measured the IH way:
Shoulder 45cm
Length 72.5cm
P2P 51.5cm
Waist 48cm
Opening 52cmPrice: £250 plus actual postage cost.
Happy to ship wherever but customs and import risks cannot be on me! Shipping from the UK.
Not sold in here but bought a few bits and have been on eBay for 21 years.

RE: IHW-04 - 2012 Melton Wool Shirt - Navy and Red
@seawolf I think so. It’s beautiful but even with the most optimistic of diets this won’t fit me. I took a punt and it was always going to be tight. I figured it was low risk because I’m certain someone here would be a very keen owner.

RE: IHW-04 - 2012 Melton Wool Shirt - Navy and Red
This has arrived for me today. It doesn’t fit but after all these years it’s till immaculate.

I am watching episode one, and so far he has also made cereal in the pocket of his IH jeans, followed by some cold baked beans.
