@Alex That's ok, thanks for getting back to me.

@Fadez Thanks for the quick reply!

Did you stick with the same size in the 888s as you wear in the 777s?

Thinking about grabbing a pair of black 888s since I’ve been hitting leg day more consistently and my 777s are starting to feel a bit tight. I wear a 32 in the 777s and like my pants slim (not skinny), so I’m wondering if I should stick with the same size in the 888s or size down?

“Relaxed” isn’t usually my thing when it comes to fit, so just looking for some guidance from the IH Army—anyone with experience making the jump from 777 to 888?

Any new updates on this Alex? I know it's still early July, but just want to check.

@goosehd Thanks for that. I did that right after posting and found one who hopefully ships to the US. If not, I'll post in the WTB. I appreciate it.

Hey IH Crew, sorry to bump an older topic. I figured this would be the best place to ask. It's a long shot but do you happen to know any stockists that may have a large still in stock?

@Graham Fantastic, thank you!

I saw Kersey version of this is releasing on Friday. Is there a date set for this one yet?

@Giles Don't get me wrong, still a great jacket! I didn't mean any criticism by my comment. Just a personal preference for me.

Ah man, this jacket looks great but would look even better with a dark brown cord collar, in my opinion.

Does anyone in here own the Type 3 that 3sixteen did with Schott? Either the Copper Roughout or the Goatskin? I'm just wondering what the weight of this feels like compared to those.

@seawolf @borosillykid Good to know! I'll keep an eye out for one.

@Graham That's unfortunate. I love the split steer but it's probably too thick for a California winter.

Will this be restocked?

Are there any plans to do a black one?

Thank you @chucklando for the UHF in just two days. It's a beautiful piece and exactly as described.

@Bill:

@thread.and.steel:

I love a good watch thread. Getting into watches can get you into some trouble quickly though! I recently picked up the Pelagos 39 and a Hamilton Khaki Field to add to the ever-growing collection

thankfully for my bank balance I’m watch-illiterate, but that Tudor (Pelagos 39?) is very nice indeed.

Thanks! It’s titanium so pretty light as well compared to steel.

@thread.and.steel @weftyarn Thank you both. I am not sure what my budget is but it's flexible. Cameras seem to occupy their own stratosphere when it comes to price. Growing up my mom adopted the Nikon DSLR format quickly and even back then I remember the prices being significant.

Glass over body must mean that the lenses are what I should invest in?

Not necessarily. I've been using my Leica Q which has a fixed lens for about 5 years now and love it. I take mostly street photography so I haven't needed anything different.

I agree with @weftyarn. Fuji and Sony are where I'd start.

Does anyone have any recommended locations to purchase canvas/nylon/perlon two piece short straps? The only place I've found is Veblenist but they're $75 each.
