@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.

@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!

Reminds me of a joke. The Easter Bunny,The Tooth Fairy,A drummer with Bad Timing,and A drummer with Good timing are in a room. There’s a $100 bill on the floor. The lights go out. Who gets the Money?…The Drummer with Bad timing as the other 3 are fictitious characters and don’t exist!

@Choko Just beautiful. Looks like 100MPH parked!

@mclaincausey In light of the fact that he’s playing with such conviction and confidence,is it possible were missing something because the mix is so drum heavy. Only thing I can think of.

@mclaincausey The clip you posted was pretty cool. I really want to like Tedeschi-Trucks,but I just can’t get into them. Maybe it’s the horns. I also can’t,for the life of me,get in to Govt. Mule,but put Derek and Warren in the Allman Brothers or a band playing the music of The Brothers and ,for me,it’s magic. They look like they genuinely enjoy playing together.

I have 2 IH Work shirts,and the only reason I have them is because they have snaps. There have been some shirts where the work shirt sizing would’ve been better than the western shirt,and I ultimately passed on said shirt.

Great rendition of Soul Shine. Derek/Warren trading licks at the end is as good as it gets. Someone posted...Derek is finally out of Tedeschi-Trucks jail.

Really good,super happy for Dean Delray.

This is from last night. Don't know how long they're going to leave it up. Just absolutely fucking stellar! I wasn't there.

That is an astute observation. I’m really into old school vintage fades.
