I have a few pairs of IH cargo shorts, the lightest weight being in the 8oz ripstop. I am interested to see if these are even lighter.

Olive and Khaki secured, looking forward to these.

While I do have some beloved TFH clothing items, my favorites are my TFH leather and silver. Too warm for the jacket now, but this is my ride or die EDC wallet, chain and belt loop.

Eagle head wallet chain
Semi-Aniline leather belt loop (same as their jackets)
Natural Shinki Shell mid wallet

@Dmart Same! It goes really well with denim and it’s so rich in person. Fucking addicted to WL. Going back for iron Mordant RN!! Haha

You will love it. The shirt is even darker than the hoodie for some reason. I ended up getting all three color shirts and they all seem pleasantly darker in person compared to the pictures online.

Mine arrived and they fit perfectly snug at the waist for me (34), no belt needed. Was 85 today so I kept them on after the try-on, really comfy.

@rasta how would you describe the difference between super looper and double heavyweight foxfibre?

The Super Looper is a bit lighter, softer and airier. Really plush and cozy. The double heavyweight foxfiber is a bit rougher and denser, its really comfortable in a rugged "weighted blanket" sort of way. They are both plenty heavy, but the french terry can breathe a bit more than a fleeced hoody so they layer exceptionally well.

One thing that surprised me about the iron mordant fox fiber hoody was the weird patina I am getting. Hard to notice in pictures but it does actually develop some interesting patina.

Do NOT buy a Wonderlooper product if you value your bank account. Not because they are not worth it. But because you will start with one and end up with a dozen. My WL obsession is second only to my IH obsession. I put them in similar company in terms of their obsessive passion for the quality of their materials and construction. I did overspend for an iron mordant fox fiber hoody last year, and even I will say that cashmere hoody is crazy town. That being said, I highly highly recommend anything of theirs in fox fiber, and their Superlooper hoodies. Their t-shirts are good, but their sweats are next level good.

Received mine today in XL, fits similarly to my other two IH mechanic shirts in the ripstop, but feels slimmer and drapes a bit different due to the heavier fabric weight. Big fan.

Copped. This month is going to hurt.

In for this drop, bit torn on sizing. I went 34 with the 634 UHRs and the waist is snug but perfect imo - they officially measure 35.2 prewash. For these I was thinking to go 35 which is 34.5. Is that a good place to be taking into account for a bit of stretch?

These are amazing chairs. I picked up a V2 awhile back, amazing craftsmanship and attention to detail.

These are getting maximum rotation time while the weather is still nice and cool. Breaking in nicely, I only notice their weight when they are going on or coming off.

These feel great! They were nice and snug at the waist after a hot soak, warm gentle wash and a hang dry. Wore them without a belt for a day and they molded perfectly. These are easily my best fitting pair of denim and I only see them getting better.

@goosehd

I can see the potential from my pre-soak try-on. These are going to be mint once I get them dialed in.

First pair of IH denim, straight into the deep end. Sized down to a 34 based on the measurements and the waist was perfect out of the bag. Got my soak and wash in, now we wait. Wish me luck.

I have a pair of IH-634D, but this will be my first pair of IH denim. Can't wait!
