    I sent them in a pair for repair and they repaired them.  I then got an email saying my new ones would be ready in Feb.  I sent them an email saying I think you have it wrong, I sent a pair in for repair and you have repaired them, I got an email back saying my new ones would be ready in Feb.  At that point, I gave up and wait to see what happens in Feb…..

            Yup. Those are the same pair and pictures.  I asked why it shrank so much given that the tag is 38 and the waist shrank to 35….. Very odd, it has mysteriously disappear on the F/S thread.  Perhaps the original poster  has the ability to delete the thread.

              He didn't like your question Omega, and he decided to leave the forum.  I think you offended him!

                Oops, my bad  :-[.  I had no intentions to offend.  I was a curious after viewing the raw measurements from BIG.  The tag size was 38, but the actual waist size was 39, that's a good 4 inches of shrinkage….the shrinkage in the rise seems ok.  Didn't know "Zero" denim can shrink so much.

                        Why do people think there are no driving rules in a parking lot?  Pedestrian crossings, stop signs, lanes, speed limits; do they no longer apply, or am I just being foolish?

                          I've been pulled over in the parking lot of a Veterans Hospital before. The officer was quick to point out that I was on federal property and if he were to give me a ticket I would go to federal court. I exited a section of the lot going the wrong direction. And it was a god damn Sunday morning in an emtpy parking lot, I was tired after working a 36 hour shift. Guy was an asshole.

                            That is pretty dickish.

                            On the other hand, I nearly got steamrolled by some douche in an F-250 who a) ran a stop sign to b) make an illegal left into c) a one way lane.  I would have welcomed a little overzealous parking enforcement.

                                anyone heard of Taylor Stitch?  they have a few shirts that are okay looking (on the internet)

                                folks at tellason put me on to them when i had the nerve to send them an email talking about the questionable (imho) design of one of their shirts  😶

                                  another random question.

                                  what is the big deal with loopwheeled items?  i really don't think they are that soft or warm in comparison to many newer fabrics.  now the way items are flatseamed sewned seems to make a big difference in comfort, but loopwheeled or not i have a Nautica sweat suit from over ten years ago that is soo  much more comfortable then any loopwheeled item i have.  just the design of the Nautica sweat suit isn't that flattering

                                  guess this is kind of a rant as well, oh well need space to get off my bull$hit

                                    Just checked this stuff out.  I might try them out once I am done spending money on this move, as I need some new clothes for work.  Nice find Monday!

                                        Something about "Made from the hide of an old bull" and "100 Year Warranty" just makes me laugh.

                                          Can't speak for the belt but I've got one of their wallets which is aging beautifully, there's a pic in the Saddleback thread.
