Also, the new 888 cut in the flagship 21oz should be arriving mid next week.

I passed on this first round of drops. Waiting on the 184 and 189. I did pick up a pair of Raw Beatle Busters from the outlet, though.

Is that gold thread I spy on the 178? Does that mean you'll glitter when the sun is out?

my wish list (some old and new): 1. ihsh-193 indigo dyed western 2. ihsh-186 khaki tiger camo cpo 3. ihsh-187 khaki cpo (although still unsure about ripstop as a fabric. love the look though) 4. ihsh-192 flamingo ombre western (maybe, depending on how they look) 5. ihsh-129 blue 6. ihsh-129 green 7. 633S-OD 8. ihj-61 whipcord work jacket 9. ihv-22 whipcord vest I reckon that's about $2000 right there That's a nice list gaseousclay , I need to follow suit and organize mine in this manner to help me avoid some impulse..... The 193 sounds interesting...I don't see that in the planned products on IH forum? I too really like the 187 but am not 100% sold on the ripstop. I have a feeling that would change when I got it as IH "doesn't do crap" lol I wish they had kept the original 192 Ghost Pig  The 129 is beautiful! I wish they had more blue/light blue non-indigo options, I wish I could get an IHSH-101TG. I was lucky to pick up the IHV-22 preowned and it is a great garment, something that matches with a lot of different colors, warm and cozy, just beautiful. If I didn't need to start putting a beating on my Type IIIs I would totally be down to add another jacket to the list, I love the stardard whipcords and I also love the IHM-15...hopefully they have a winter sale later on in the year like they just had the summer sale, and maybe I can convince myself to drop the load on one of the two. Awesome list man and great taste The 101 TG is a great one. I got mine like new off the IH forum, but selfedge had quite a few last time I looked. |

That 18oz CPO is magnificent.
I honestly don't understand why people are going all gushy over that pink one. It looks like it made of meat. It's like if Lady Gaga made a heavy flannel western shirt. Have a feeling there are going to be very few people who can carry that pink off.

I'm not buying one as it's not my style either but I think they did a really good job with it and it looks cool in theory. |

I think the pink colors would go well with denim. I like it but i'm not in love with it enough to drop $345 on one. Of course, that could all change down the road

I'm not buying one as it's not my style either but I think they did a really good job with it and it looks cool in theory. Their best stuff is exactly this. If you would've told me five years ago I'd wear a denim vest with a hoodie I would have called you crazy. Yet here I am... That's what the camo CPO is. I live in a hick area, so it wouldn't "make a statement" per say, but those kind of things are the best when they decide to do them. |

Hardly apples to apples but I wasn't aware TS was doing a red ombre. It was in one of the surveys they sent out. I haven't had any shirt of mine wear out as of yet, so I've taken a more cross-eyed look at spending/justifying $300+. |

I love that 192. I see more openings to wear that than my traditional red/black. Something special about the cross/fade check like the grey and blue that makes everything ok.  ickes the 1700 is great. Thought the Lg would be too small but it's perfect. Like you said though, all the cut and sewn are short (I'm 6') but I think they are perfect for me and look sweet. DigDug, like all things IH, just buy one. You'll get over the fact they cost more than our Aldens when in hand...maybe   |

People will either love it or hate it, but my guess is most people like it because it's an unusual color for a flannel western. I've gotten compliments on my Edgevale Elko flannel in the sky umber color, whereas, i've yet to hear anyone tell me they like the colors on my other shirts. Bottom line, i've reached a point now where I don't care what others think when it comes to my wardrobe choices. As long as you like what you buy that's all that matters |

I don't see any other manufacturer making them or anyone else wearing purple flannels. |

Word. I only get butthurt when folks assume my shit is "designer" and therefore "expensive"...a diatribe sometimes ensues depending on decor: "designer, pssst, this is yippe kaizen mutherfecker, Haraki-san!" |

Purple is synonymous with The Vikings and Prince, so my reasons for avoiding it are local. |

I got a 101 TG, solely because I liked the blue tint so much. Once I got it and started wearing it, the checks have a lot of depth to them. Nothing as crazy as some of the Flat Head checks out there but still much more enjoyable in person. It really is hard to show through a screen. Everyone needs a check flannel or two I think. |

I think IH has turned us into snobs, but in a good way. I know a girl who was going on about buying True Religion jeans for her 8 yo boy. My first thought was, "that poor kid." The problem is that most people automatically assume expensive means high quality, but this is not the case with a lot of designer brands. I was showing my 107 to my 4 yo the other day and told him he can have it when he's a young man, that is of course it fits him and I still own it  |
