This is one color I would rock of buffalo check as it takes you out of lumberjack status. However, still could never bring myself to pay $300 for a CPO or shirt or any other non-jacket top, regardless if its from super-secret special cotton or wool plucked from the taint of the world's last Yeti...
EDITED.

Yeah Giles actually did something pretty cool on this one, he sent out an email yesterday to all of the people who ordered these on the first go around that Haraki recalled and let them have an early chance to grab one before the official drop today. I thought that was a cool gesture. I'm actually holding off on this one I think only because I saw the list of the upcoming UHF's for 2016 and there's a few I want. I'll post the list in the General Discussion board. |

Yeah they obviously aren't cheap and I get it, but referring to one of these UHF's as a "shirt" is about the same as saying that a CPO is a "shirt". |

EDITED. Well a CPO is often referred to as a shirt-jacket and I use the UHF's as jackets sooooo.....  |

A Redditor sent me this pic of the TGs, and they look pretty damn good. I thought they were going to be brighter than this, but muted, it looks amazing.  And they're less than $300 on Rivet and Hide.. |

I saw. Thanks.....Just so you know, the 101's that are being restocked are from the original batch that we had to recall. They are perfect, but have black constructional stitched, not the grey that the later batch were sewn with.....

They are perfect, but have black constructional stitched, not the grey that the later batch were sewn with..... - I'd love to ask this. You guys and other JP/UK brands make large jeans - large enough for guys like me and even larger. But it seems odd that there is no market for shirts for the same-sized guys. Wondering if you can help me out there - I'd at least like to try an IH shirt, but can't. Seems like the same guys would want a shirt too. |

So we either have guys with big waist, long legs and don't want the shirts, or we have guys with my waist/legs and Devastitis' upper body? Dunno. |

It's simple. Big guys with long legs don't wear shirts, and big guys with short legs wear track suits.

Well I think you might be partly right actually. Let's be real, the average guy has a waist size that's disproportionate to his upper body....well the average American I guess I should say. They have a bigger waist size while their upper body's are on the smaller side relatively speaking. So you have guys wearing 36-38 jeans and L or maybe XL shirts (in IH sizes). As for the leg length well they just get them hemmed or cuff them for the most part. I don't need to tell you this but your body type isn't exactly average either and I mean this only as a compliment. With your height, weight, and size you could be a damn football player or bodybuilder. So while I don't have the same problems as you in regards to finding clothes to fit me, I can definitely understand where you're coming from. I don't know, just my theory anyways. |

When we do a run of shirts, we usually get left with XS and XXXL, I am afraid the demand for sizes smaller and larger than this is just too small. If XXXL sold like crack, then I'd try XXXXL and if that sold like crack then I'd do XXXXXL, but they don't....

If XXXL sold like crack, then I'd try XXXXL and if that sold like crack then I'd do XXXXXL, but they don't.... So, if I may ask. Say you have the patterns for those larger sizes. Could you make just a few of those per batch? I don't know what that means or how it effects the whole production, but just to see if they'd sell? Would a couple of shirts be a huge PITA for you guys? If they were advertised in places like this, I'd think they could sell. Dunno, just reaching. |

If it made economic sense to do it, we would. As I said, we don't sell enough XXXL's to justify throwing money away making larger sizes still. If the demand was there, believe me, we would make them. When I mooted the idea of making the IH-526J (Type III), our most popular jacket, in XXXXL and XXXXXL to my retailers a few years ago, I got zero interest. Zero demand from retailers tells me all I need to know....Sorry
