Ditto to wanting the brown in 634.

Jacket is pips and gravy.  As per usual with IH, sized up and happy.  3XL.  I'm 6'2"/200, but broad shoulders and arms.  Glad the khaki is sold out, otherwise would pick that one up, too.

Makes sense…. also given the sizing weirdness of the double.  I’m down for cord 634s of any make.  Here’s a vote for black.

Yearly call out for a re-run of the 6634 double weave cord jeans….

Well, a few days in, and I can say I am glad I got this TTS.  (Again, for reference, I am not Hulk Hogan, by any means, but I have large arms and shoulders, relativistically speaking).

I also gave the M-20 a warm soak, and while I will not say "it shrunk" (bc I am not sure it did), it does feels like it came in, tightened up, et cetera.  If it did shrink, it would be in the sleeve just slightly, which is great.

The end result is this thing is spot on perfect.  I could wear with a thin button-up (or tee)… or I can wear with a UHF (not with the sleeves cuffed/rolled up, it should be noted) or hoodie.  The former is fitting but relaxed; the latter is snuggie-snug.  Thank f-g heaven for the pleated shoulders.

This thing is a beast.  Way to go IH.

Curious, think you'd ever consider another release in this same make (single yoke western) in a different color?  I see the CPOs, but prefer this make.  Probably ain't gonna happen, I know….

Cheers,

This one is an interesting case.  I was wary on the other side… that I'd go TTS and it might be too loose.  But I am large in the shoulders, arms area -- and had I sized down, I wouldn't be able to raise my arms.  For reference, I fit XXL (or 3XL) in shirts, so I went with the XXL for the M-20.

It was 60 out this morning, so I wore a cord shirt (the IHSH-184) over a T-shirt and the M-20 and the fit was snug.  While it is a bit long in the sleeve (maybe half an inch), had I gone XL, the arms would have fit like sausage casings.

Granted, it fits just fine with just a Tee underneath, but it'd be a bit less fitted in that mode.  Can't have it all.

I truly think the fit on this one is very specific to body type.  Slimmer might be able to size down... .stockier might want to stick TTS.

Just my cents....

Hells yeah…. not sure if that's possible

Cream/black ombre would be nice.

Also, the yearly cat-call for brown denim 634.

I noticed the measurements are the same as the previous white version… did these shrink at all in the dying process?

Cheers in advance,

Nice… looking forward to seeing how they turned out.

Ditto.  When do you expect these bathed children back,from the baths?

Yep, looking forward to seeing some in-the-wild/progress pics of these.

@Giles:

IH-717-BLK - complete and ready to ship to IHUK….

Any update re ETA for these?

Cheers,

Sweet-
Any ETA on the black versions of the 717?

Cheers,

Gonna throw the yearly towel in the ring for a new application of zee ol' brown chambray shirt.  Short-sleeve western (like the 16) or a long-sleeve pocket-only western.

Cheerios.

Yep, I gots the IHJ-25, in blue …. thing is a beast.

Agree-
I tend to favor workshirts, but this is one I might actually be delighted to get as a Western.  Especially if we get any intel on wear/fade patterns of the indigo.

Wear the hell outta these, lads !

Damn these things are fecking perfect.  Just arrived.

You guys are either divinely inspired or insidious, but at this point it doesn't matter.  Thank you.

Do you expect any shrinkage with these?
Cheers in advance-
