@moskiitto the old one I photographed is actually the IHSH-08. That one is somehow crunchier still than the 361.

@RobeOfTheMagi amazing repairs! Really cool.

Bonus pic with a sparkle of sunshine:

Freshly laundered, 365 wears exactly:

2. I guess there are a lot of you who have had pockets repaired. Have any of you done it yourselves? Or is the proper action to send it somewhere for repair?

I think pocket repairs are tricky and I don't think IHUK offer them as pair of their free repair service. However, I've done some DIY pocket repairs using iron-on patches plus some extra stitches by hand for reinforcement. It's not pretty but it works for me!

Great updates everyone! Here is mine...

@goosehd thank you! I should have been able to find that myself!

@Jakederoche post more if you can!!!

Yes, please do! They are stunning.

Also, can anyone link the forum thread for the black XHS? I can't seem to find it...

@don_pipone those look really nice! I'm curious about the wash/wear stats. Any idea?

@don_pipone wow, those fades look gorgeous.

@Oaktavia cheers! And yes I can feel your pain! I keep coming back to this old jacket

Paired with a brand new 555-02, which is the same denim.

Another fit pic. Jacket and jeans are the same denim!

I sent over my much-loved pair of 555-XHSib (6+ years old, 700+ wears, close to falling apart) to IHUK for some repairs, but unfortunately they never got there and UPS recently confirmed they lost them.

@JoshC offered me a free replacement pair.

Legendary IHUK customer service!

@Lowlander Now you will have to buy a new pair.

Actually, I didn't have to buy a new pair. As an example of IHUK's unsurpassed customer service, Josh offered me a free replacement pair!

@Lowlander That was unexpected and unfortunate Was hoping you to hit the 1000 wear mark.

I was too! Now back to square 1.

That stinks... No insurance can pay back time invested.

That's exactly how I feel!

Thank you @Jord @twin @nurunuru @CosmoSix5 @moskiitto

Yeah, the silver lining to this is that I get to start on a new pair. I broke out a brand new pair of 555-02 that I had stashed away unworn for years!
