Messaged you about the RMC chinos.

I have these in khaki (wearing them right now) and I'm excited for navy to be released. I'd pick these up in darker khaki and green if you released them

Sounds good!

These look really nice. What cut is this based on?

@Mizmazzle My first in the 634 cut as well. Can't wait for them to arrive!

@Mizmazzle:

Bought a tag 33 and 34. Kept the 33. If you’re hoping on a tag 34 it should be popping back up any day!

I ordered the size 34. The measurements looked pretty spot on. How are you liking yours?

@weftyarn:

Looking sharp with those Chinos @Polemides
I don’t know why but I never paired this with anything but denim. I need to try combining it with my Ducks!

Thanks @neph93
I thought I was patient with this purchase after having debated for months.
but years? you’re on another level here.

What could possibly convince you?

Thanks! It's a really versatile shirt. The chinos are my IH-721-KHA.

@neph93:

I think this thread is punctuated every six months or so for the last eight years by me complaining that I still don’t have one. Nobodies fault but my own of course… but still.

Looking great @Polemides  @weftyarn

Apparently (from earlier in the thread), there's restock this month…

@weftyarn:

I love this shirt!

One of my favorites!

Great to know! Thanks! Bonus picture of me wearing the jacket and my IHSH-54.

Edit: IHSH-154.

@Giles:

I dont think those are "unfinished", I think some of the interlining (the white stuff) has not been cleaned up properly.n Try cutting the white threads away and see what happens, the buttonhole should be fine…..

I cut away the hanging threads. It's still quite difficult to button those buttons (maybe the holes aren't as wide as the others), but I assume they'll loosen up over time.

Sure. Here's a comparison between some buttonholes that look unfinished (to me) and finished. The unfinished buttons are very difficult to button up and seem to have some inner layer coming out.

Here's a shot of the jacket as a whole.

My wife got me this jacket for my birthday. It is amazingly warm and heavy and I love it.

One thing I noticed (which I'm not sure is to spec) is a couple of the button holes seem unfinished, almost as if they weren't cut to the same size as the others and without brown finishing thread holding together the layers around the button hole. Those button holes are very difficult to button since it seems they're not fully cut. Has anyone experienced that?

@AdamJ:

@jerkules not the immediate future I'm afraid mate

Count me in as interested in a restock (and additional colors).

@steelworker:

nailed the fit @Polemides 

@steelworker thanks! Now if only winter would arrive quicker so I can dress like this all the time…

Thanks to @popvulture for selling me my first Iron Heart shirt (IHSH-21-BLU)! Quick shipping and the shirt is exactly as advertised. 10/10.
