Thank you though, @Jett129 !

@PV/ATX:

did any retailers in the US besides SOP get the BRN?

No sorry.

@PV/ATX:

I did see that you mentioned a while back in the thread that these are going to be in regular production—is that still the case? I see on the site that it still says seasonal / limited run.

The Black and Khaki most likely will be regular (def coming out again SS20), but the brown proved to be less popular with our retailers so possibly not producing again.

Cool—thanks, Giles!

Also edited to add: fwiw I think that's the best out of all of em, so figured I'd add a vote of support

Phew, so happy to read that and it will be good timing.

Saw an indigo one at the NYC show/party that’s drop dead gorgeous. Tried hard not to stare at it.

@Giles  did any retailers in the US besides SOP get the BRN? It's the only place I've seen em pop up and I missed a size L, seeing if I can track one down anywhere.

Thanks in advance!

We have some L brown arriving with us in the next week or so.  There were a few lying around in Koijima that I had forgotten about.  If you are still after one, PM me

Kinda surprised the brown didn’t do as well. Such a great color

Agreed. It would have been my first choice.

What weight are these 13W & 14W cord fabrics?

[Giles]

When I asked Haraki and Tom, I was told Corduroys are not measured by weight.

[Chaintitch]

That's what I recalled hearing, and yet Brisbane Moss lists cords with the same number of wales as having different GSM.

I've never handled a 69, but I have a 70 and am wondering. It feels very light… like it's maybe 12oz, but I could be very wrong. Curious about the difference between the two and how much 'heavier' these might be than the Kersey Type 3's dropping this spring.

[Giles]

I think you would be pretty hard-pressed to tell the difference between the 13 and 14 wale just by feel.  The SS20 Kersey is a lot, lot lighter.

[Chaintitch]

So do the 69s/70s feel like… 12oz to you? 13/14?  I'm sure your brain is pretty finely attuned to fabric weights, at this point...

[Giles]

16ozish at a guess….

[Chaintitch]

Shows what I know.

This recently arrived IHJ-81 feels WAAAY heavier.

Received the IHJ-69-BLK jacket today in the medium size. A really good summer jacket. First impressions are it’s a slim fitting warm weather jacket. I’m 5 foot 9 and around 11 stone. The medium size just about fits me. The jacket length is quite short so definitely a summer piece. The arm length is perfect. If you’re any bigger than me I’d go for a larger size. I think this will go well with a t-shirt as the collar is really nice. A very lightweight jacket so it’ll be ideal for the warmer weather. Really nice cord material which is incredibly soft and lightweight. The texture reflects the light and gives an attractive, vibrant black colour. Excellent Iron Heart stitching as usual. Highly recommended.

Thanks for the great write up. Tee and a type III is a classic.
