Hi all,

@neph93 was the first to reach out with a kind greeting after my first post here, and from then on I was a fan of his posts.
I hope to see you here again some day. Miss you, Reuben; I hope you're doing as well as can be.

Beautiful. I wish the IHSH-218 - "The Johnny Cash III" was also completely blacked-out, rather than the white selvedge tickers. Especially at the hem gusset; a bit immature looking rather than this CPO's refinement.

That is a function of the design. The westerns are built the same way regardless  of material. CPO’s are made in such a way that the selvedge ID wouldn’t show, even if there was one (which there wouldn’t be in this case).

Understood, @neph93. Thanks. I thought it would be as simple as folding back the ticker when sewn– or no gusset at all.  Perhaps I'll still pull the trigger and go ahead with the idea of just dyeing it black.

That's why I went for the black snaps on mine.

Nice!

Damp, chilly morning.
Loving the 276 for layering

Wow, small world. And sure sounds like you got around this little town. Glad you enjoyed it.
Was that a road trip for you?

I’ll admit I haven’t been to the aquarium or seaport in years. Guess that’s part
of living in a tourist town. But don’t get me wrong; on the ocean,
1/2 way between Boston & NYC, and all the New England charm just outside the door.

Yeah, Connecticut is more diverse than many think.

Long answer for: I really love this corner of the world. Haha
Hope you make it back sometime!

@rydor The white snaps so subtle a change, yet absolutely not . . . Really nice!

Love this fabric/cut more than the others so far.
I recently came to IH with a certain expectation of subdued texture,
but the fades with this vintage style is perfection.
Now to wait for a 32 restock. . .
