Do you have a fit guide for this and what is the price? Looks great, nice work. My ears are perked up and I'm looking forward to learning more. Fit charts, more pics, tell me how buttery smooth it is, etc... These are my size charts. If you have any interest in what fabrics i have, please send me an email at indigogenegoods@gmail.com.

My dads tactical workshirt, my chambray workshirt with snaps and tapered/hemmed moto jeans came in today.
My dad is pleased and he is getting a black denim version to switch it up when not wearing a blue one.
My chambray is dope in my opinion and what I wanted.
Moto pants are now tapered so I dont look like I'm sporting bell bottoms lol.
Pictures up soon. On a side note, spilled some acid on my ts jeans and now have two holes....stupid lab coat didn't save me

indigogene - Hi Manny, do you post your new (or existing) fabrics here? Where can we find out what fabrics you have available?

matt Manny doesn't as post often yet on here but he was telling me that he hired someone to help with web content/email requests. He usually texts me what he gets new and he always can order something you like if he can get it. I would go with emailing for a quicker response I think.

I offered it up on here since I didn't necessarily want to be the person to post up the new fabrics...let it come from the man himself. But yes, I will shoot him an email. Thanks again on this. 2. I hope his "web person" isn't someone familiar from the Phoenix area that knows a thing or two about ruining denim companies.

I feel ya on those points and mentioned it to him cause I said it would help his business grow in the right direction. Hopefully, the web person does a great job marketing and updating the content on webpage.

I'm hoping that the last time his site disappeared he formally cut ties with Laura as his web person. It sucks to see him going through the style of web presence management as Lawless while she was responsible for it.

For a minute...when the site got a refresh, the link to the Facebook page happened to jump to Laura's Facebook page...the super sleuths on this site caught it and blew that up quickly. Whether she's involved at this point is up for debate, but as long as goods keep coming in a timely manner, folks are willing to give Manny the benefit of the doubt.

I don't see it as a problem at all, he needed someone to help him get that up and running, and she was a convenient way to get that going. In other words, I'm not trying to rabble-rouse, just stating that her methods were causing him problems early on, and I'm hoping he's found someone else to help him out since online presence stability is really important these days.

Exactly. Well-stated. Not digging up issues on this.

Hi Guys, I am Manuel Donosa. I am Manny's new help and I have been part of the textiles industry for as long I can remember. I met Manny about 6 months ago when looking for help for a project of my own. I got to say that when I first saw what he does, I totally fell in love with it. His quality is the best I've ever seen. I am proud to be a part of such quality and looking forward to answering your questions and helping you with anything you might need.

I can hardly wait to show it to you guys. Welcome Manuel. I'm sure Manny mentioned it, but this forum is essentially the "testing ground" and early adopters, so feel free to use us as your sounding board on ideas or early releases. I reached out via email today about any new fabrics or just existing available fabrics - been looking to get a shirt from Indigogene.

Thank you for your post Matt. Yes, Manny mentioned how much this forum has helped him with testing and development. We are currently working on the release of several shirt designs and we should introduce them shortly. In the meantime, I will look for your email and send you some pictures in the next few days.

What are you getting? If he puts up more pics, possible options and prices, I might order some for delivery to my US hotel when I'm over in July. I don't want to risk UK customs fees. His lack of decent web presence isn't helping him or customers at the moment, I guess.

I received my second custom vest from Indigogene and thought I would follow up some of the details I outlined earlier in this thread with some photos. The vests are a very specific vintage USN inspired design but show what Manny can do on customs. The details are what make these so special to me. Vest #1 Black / Black Candiani Vintage navy blanket with vintage USN stamp centered on the inside Vintage peacoat buttons Blanket lined handwarmer pockets with selvedge ID in the pocket iphone 6 pocket with selvedge ID on inner right hand side zipper pocket on inner left side back cinch Vest #2 Same USN design 12.5 oz brown weft denim lightwieght camo lining selvedge locker loop

Looks damn good! Modeled after the Mister Freedom "Signal Vest"?
I swear to you, about a month ago I had written Manny a DM on Instagram asking to make me this vest with an OD green wool Army blanket (I was in the Army, Signal Corps Branch), and no shit, within 10-15mins of asking him, I saw him post a picture of your vest! I quickly retracted my request, and thought long and hard about some new epic sh!t, lol! Pics to come soon.

@untucked New epic shit??!! Seriously can't wait to see it!
Yes, very inspired by the signal vest. I sold my Signal Vest as it was a little too costume-y for my daily rotation and got these two vests instead. In fact I had originally asked Manny to makes these with the selvedge ID visible at the front pocket openings like the signal vest but he advised it was too loud and wouldn't work with the tonal look these vests have. Very glad I followed his advise.
If I were to order two vests so similar to each other again I would probably go with a normal collar on one instead of both with shawl collars. Like the vest you have in some of the WAYWT shots...
