IHSH-365-IND I IH-777S-21

This 8oz Herringbone Hickory Stripe is a test we have done, playing around with indigo overdying (which we were pretty pleased how it turned out)

We are off to Japan for two weeks on holiday, starting in Tokyo then taking a road trip to Kanazawa, then onto Takayama, taking in the scenery on the way, then back to Tokyo.

Lynne has a full itinerary laid out - and when I say full, I mean FULL!

So expect lots of photos of our trip...

My favourite and first piece - unfortunately a bit snug fit, but I will get into it again - the IHSH-176 - love this shirt, the weight, style, everything about it

First day finished by a nightcap at Ginza Music Bar, a cool little bar, with a DJ playing Marvin Gaye etc

Crew wearing a selection of new STF short sleeve summer shirts

first day (sort off, we arrived in early morning, and managed to get into the hotel room 6 hours early!) then straight out to explore a bit of Ginza...

@AdamC heard it all before - every season 17th!

@AdamC Sounds like a no to me!

@goosehd Kind words, thankyou

@goosehd hope you like it Dennis, its a great fabric. It will be interesting to see how they do, only made a small run of them.

@AdamC - One week till it kicks off! I better take a look at my team!!!

Hope to see everyone from last year and a few new faces getting frustrated at it and using their wild card in week 1!

@michael.rose0107 - no, this won't fade like indigo. The cross designs are discharged dyed (so they become permanently embedded into the natural fibers). The overall colour though will age, soften, and fade normally through regular wear and washing.

@Buckeye the sashiko's 9oz (actually 9.2oz)

@Crispy-Heron In production as I type, they are scheduled to be delivered late August

@Ral1121 should be releasing next week, they are being photographed at the moment, so once done we can confirm date launch on forum.

@TJA_Crew yes, the toe is quite firm, and after 6+ years of wear its still the same shape as it was originally. If in doubt I would go wider
