        I asked myself that day, and have been asking ever since.  Still have no clue….

            What is the deciding factor on whether a particular fabric or pattern becomes a western or a work shirt (or both)? And is it just one person's decision or is input taken from all areas?

            Sorry if this has been asked before, I've been wondering for a while.

                It goes like this when I am in Hachioji….

                H Here is a sample
                G Great I like that
                H Good
                G Western or Work?
                H You choose
                G Thanks, what sort of buttons or snaps?
                H You choose

                Or

                H This is a work shirt coming out soon
                G Cool

                Or

                H This is a western shirt coming out soon
                G Cool

                Or

                G I want to do this shirt in this fabric, what do you think
                H Cool

                  Fabric weight can be a factor; Westerns look good with snaps and a light material could not support snaps. Also, works shirts are more suited to buttons (a corollary to the above)

                    Beatle Buster release I believe?

                      Thanks for the info :). I should have expected something like that.

                          Yeah, I remember when it happened; there was nothing special about that day and the traffic more than tripled.  No explanation for it whatsoever.

                              For what it's worth…BB release 12/7/10, no help with the mystery of the 17th. Funny I have thought about this more than once and always thought it was the Buster's. Great question BK.

                                  Hey was wondering about the summer months coming up fast.  I plan on grin & bearing it with my 25oz fekkers  the entire summer.  Will my sweat have any negative effect on the denim?

                                    Depends on what you perceive as negative. They certainly might begin to get a smell (Not a good thing IMO). They will fade a whole lot faster during the Summer months (Not a bad thing IMO).

                                      except that your jeans are going to smell pretty bad after some weeks of sweaty wear…i don´t think so,no!

                                        Yes smell is bad but as long as the sweat doesn't damage the denim im good.  I plan on washing them towards the end of summer anyways around month 5 or 6.  I'll continue to air them out & spray some fabreze until then.  Thanks L
