@Paul9221

Nice! Did you pick up the short ones or the tall?

I think it's considered the tall ones. The LK-044? Absolutely love them!

@northsouthdenimguy I just picked up those JL desert boots. I knew they'd be good, but they ended up being amazing!

@Paul9221 @Giles maybe I'm wrong but the 1955 slubby will be exclusive for the shop vancouver, no?

Huge fan of TSV! They clearly have good taste

Damn, can't wait for the 1955 cut in slubby. Holy mackerel that will be a beautiful pair of pants

Didn't realize this was happening! We have an ETA?

Oh, funny story about these. I had a really tough time with the top button on these. Not because they were too tight in the waist, but because the button hole was pretty small. But this isn't my first rodeo. Button, unbutton, repeat until things get easy.

Unfortunately, I buttoned and got distracted by a phone call. Spent about 1.5 hours on that call. I hung up only because I had to go to the bathroom so badly. Problem is, I didn't perform the button/unbutton strategy I've deployed so many times in the past. This was the first time unbuttoning these especially stubborn pair, and it wasn't happening.

So I'm standing in the kitchen, in desperation, clawing at the button with a butter knife and praying. Took about 10 minutes but I'm happy to report that I have yet to mess myself in these pants, but who knows what the future holds!

I can't remember when I last posted a photo on the forums (terribly sorry, life happens), but I had to post on this thread.

I'm a huge fan of the 888. Have so many pairs of them! But, something about the 1955 kept calling me. I pulled the trigger on them and I'm so glad I did!

I didn't think I could like a cut more than the 888, but IH did it again! The high front rise on these is stellar, and makes the whole pant feel better IMO. I would instantly pick these up in the brown duck or black (or OD)!

If your size is still available, don't sleep on these!

Heya crew, any idea on when these might restock? Really joneseing for a 31!

@Neru-6 said in IHM-43-NAV - Nylon Type L-2B Flight Jacket - Navy Blue:

Hey question for those who got this beauty, is it warm ? Cause I need something that keeps warm between lightweight and my N1.

I'm not a straight answer sorta guy so apologies in advance for my rambling

It's been about 63F at night where I live. I took this jacket out for an evening stroll, just over a t-shirt. At first, it was perfect, not too cold, not too warm. However, after about 1 mile, I got pretty warm and had to take it off.

While it's much lighter than the N1 and not initially as warm, it insulates MUCH better, so if you're doing something active, you might find yourself overheating in this compared to the N1.

Hope that helps!

wow. the XLs sold out in a couple of minutes.

Lots of retailers are carrying this one. I'd bet you can get one from them!

Woo! The site held up

@konadog said in IH-888-WT - 13.5oz Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - White:

Does anyone know if the waist stretches much in these? I bought a pair in my usual 888 size 35 and the waist is pretty (almost too) tight. I really like the jeans and would love if the waist would stretch an inch.

You know, I've been experiencing the same thing. I assume it's simply because I don't wear them as often as, say, my 14oz broken twill IH, so they don't get as much time to stretch. Probably wear my broken twill like 4-5 days a week, but only pull these out about once every 6 weeks.

Have you been putting a lot of wear on them but not getting any stretch?

I have so many outfits on the sidelines waiting for these ivory beauties!

This is the first pair of jeans that I don't want to fade. The double indigo looks so sharp with a button-up shirt and dress shoes.

Thanks, gents! I ended up ordering them. I'll report back!

Heya folks, I was looking to pick up a unique and good quality pair of fingerless gloves for the 12-year-old daughter of a friend of mine. I know these are one-size, do you think they might be too big for her? Any of you that own these that have kids around that age had them try the gloves on?

Thanks!

How did the sizing work out for you, @Matt ? I just picked up another pair of white and black.

@Matt said in UTILITEES - 5.5oz Loopwheel Crew Neck T-Shirt:

@Paul9221 are your UHFs western or work and how do they fit? Do you have any IH printed ts? If so what size?

Heya Matt! Whether western or work (I have both) I've gone Large on all but one. I don't think I have any printed IH T shirts, but I'll give you some other shirt size comparisons that will hopefully help:

• Small in Dehen 1920 heavy duty T
• Large in Whitesville T (fits great after hot wash and hot dry)
• Medium/Large in 3Sixteen heavyweight T

With any stretchy material, like thermals and Ts and even hoodies (I take an M on the current run of IH hoodies), I try to go for my chest measurement, or maybe just a tad bigger. My chest is 39.25". I do like a trim fit, though. I could size up for a looser fit if that were my thing. Problem is I'm not especially tall (5'10"), so larger shirts can sometimes be too long.

Hope that helps, but let me know if you have any other questions.

I took my UHF size (large) on these and am really happy with the fit. Sized up from thermal (medium).

I like this new delivery estimate system. Nice work, gents!

@Jett129 this is SO smooth. Great rec!
