Random questions to which you seek an answer

We've basically filled the factories up for months, so stuff is taking much much longer than it used to….
Sounds like a good problem to have, all things considered.

Might there be a restock on the wabash westerns anytime soon? I'm looking for a medium in black. I just bought a small from Withered Fig and I think I need a medium
-
ah thanks! and sorry, i guess that would have been a better place for this question. getting a feel for it
-
Given the amount of restocking questions we all have from time to time do you think there’s any merit to having some sort of restock status or anticipation on the product page?
This. I think it would be a win-win.
Could be something like:
No planned restock
Restock planned
Restock ordered from Japan
Restock expected to arrive on (rough date)Much like the order status we all know and love from UPS, DHL etc.
-
That’s actually a great idea. I always feel like a nuisance when I ask about restocks. It’s the “Dad, are we there yet?” of the IH Forum.
-
More support for this idea. ^
On the other hand, and even though it can feel like an “are we there yet question,” there is something about interacting with the IHUK crew directly that is personal and satisfying from a customer perspective.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We have been trying to think of a good/efficient/meaningful way to do this for ages. I am not saying that it can't be done, but here are the issues
- We get pretty sketchy info about delivery dates from Japan, and for all sorts of reasons, delivery dates are not fixed in stone
- So we could publish, but then maintenance would be a massive job
- If we did not accurately maintain, then the information would be inaccurate and IMO inaccurate info is worse than none at all
We will give it some more thought….

Why do some westerns have a button as the top snap (eg indigo kersey) while others have a snap as the top snap (eg 12 oz denim or hickory stripe)?

Maybe similarly to the SS22 Anticipated Release Schedule,there could be a SS22 Anticipated Restock Schedule for items you’re hoping to restock during that window of time,and as with the Release Schedule we would know that this is a rough estimate. Probably easier to just keep answering the restocking questions. -

I've wondered this, too. I personally prefer snaps all the way to the top on all my shirts, but it's not a deal breaker. Of all the ones that don't do it, I wish my UHF's were snaps all the way up.

I don't know sorry. I've never asked H, I will try to remember to next time I see him….

I have one of these shirts in XL and it fits perfectly. I have a couple of others with different graphics that I have found on ebay and on the forum. Is this weight and cut still in production? I can't seem to find it anywhere. I have several 1610 and a couple of 1600 but those are both different.
-
@Oaktavia That’s 7.5 oz. They’re a fuller cut than the 6.5 oz. I used to have a bunch but stupidly sold them all when I moved.
They are still around. There are some printed ones in the shop I think. The one with Haraki’s bike trip pics is cool.
I just looked and that one in black is available in XL. The others aren’t. That’s a good one though. You should get it.
-
Oh dang alright thanks dude!
@Matt is quite right. For a long, long time those were the only IH tee's but the cut wasn't always as popular outside of Japan as it is there. The 6.5oz on the 1610's was developed as a result and given a slimmer, longer body and smaller arms.
Some of us ( @Filthy @mclaincausey and myself, love and prefer the OG variant). I have a bunch in M to XL. I'll have a look and see what I can find for you.
