Finished my new 8 panel today. A bit different in structure. Featuring some gobsmacking 1930's Japanese indigo-dyed wool with extra large leather visor, full blue-dyed leather sweat and 1910's cotton Japanese boro patched fabric liner.

I keep doing a double-take looking at this wool - I can't believe I'm lucky enough to use it. The indigo stripe is so rich and intense my rods and cones hurt.

Thanks guys, much appreciated! I'm test driving it on my flight back up to Brisbane, and it feels really good.

Barry/Johnny: grasshopper gives thanks to his sensei!

CRH: the shirt is Japanese ikat-weave cotton, made by a cool place here in Oz. Many years of good wear from that shirt.

A belated congrats Blackthorn. I probably shouldn't mention this but I saw a very black hat with your name on it at BSHW :)

Wow, Mike that's great news! I've been waiting for that hat since last Fall! It's about time it got here (not here yet, though, still)!
