This is my fourth Tour and I asked myself … why am I doing this to myself again? There is a simple answer: I still enjoy the forum, the people and the friendly atmosphere!

What drew me in here?
-Two Patagonia shirts I bought in the early 90‘ and then disappeared ten years later.
-Two selvedge Edwin jeans made in Japan, received as a gift from my cousin in the mid 90‘. One of them still existing.
-When I found out about Lightning and an addicted Japanese scene with passion for handmade things.
…
Hopefully I can find the time to tell some of this storylines.

Tour jacket paired today my first IH shirt, the IHSH-13.
Bought, because this lost Patagonia shirts where always in my mind and this 10oz selvedge chambray was the first matching a decade later.

After all this months of waiting to contribute, thought I’ve the right words to start and the best first picture to show …. but I’ve not!

First leg in here started glorious with @denim-dawg and @Stitch . Their contribution set standards and ended up in the Arctic Adventure Series.

Without @neph93 , no Heritage Tour!

And after all this conversations with @Heavy_blue , I can say he is a great member of this forum. Hope he stays!

Came home from a trip and had exactly a few minutes to get warm with the Heritage Tour Jacket, before I left to see a football match.

Tour Jacket first time out with the Wabbidashery Twin. Unworn and unwashed!

To keep the numbers in order, next is the beloved
IHSH-22.

IHSH-23 the lightweight version of the 299.

Is it just a passion? Looks like two lost shirts developed something .
To be continued….

Garden season is over.
Glad to have all plants inside.
Fireplace is on.

Great read @Tago-Mago
Will play this beautiful record in the next days again.
Definitely a reminder, to look at Conny Plank and his work!

“Masterminding the whole thing was Plank. He’d recorded the band’s first three albums and, according to Wolfgang Flür at least, was instrumental in the giant strides taken on Autobahn. The way Flür recalls it, Plank would create various car noises using the array of instruments while Hütter and Schneider sat on a sofa approving or rejecting them. “It was like going shopping,” said Flür. “They bought songs.”“

@Oaktavia (Edit)
IH had a few with different appearance and weight:
*9.5oz (IHSH-123))
*10.5oz (708)
*12oz (IHSH-91, …):

or
*17oz (IHG-059, 822, …)

But for me, timeline and pictures speak for the
12oz of the IHSH-148, because the indigo stripe is a tad wider than the white one here:

Brian Eno, the wizard of his time!

“
With all that context, the most interesting thing about picking up Television's Marquee Moon-- today, for us folks who weren't old enough to buy the first edition vinyl-- is how ahistorical it sounds. If you listen to their original Brian Eno-produced demos, you hear a scragglier, faster band that's less confident and more... punk? If nothing else, the band at least sounded closer to the sometimes-sloppy Bowery clubrats Eno must have taken them for on those early tapes. Their sound on Marquee Moon, though, is clean, raw and simple!
