Carrying this over from Random Rants.
Is there a dedicated "shipping" thread for everyone. I feel like the "shipping" thread Giles made is obviously more for IH related shipping.

Would love to discuss the best options for shipping. It all starts to get very confusing and pricey.

If not, can a mod start one in the proper place?

[bagley920]

Well, we can use that for general shipping advice, etc

I believe nerkg and myself both work for UPS so feel free with any UPS related questions

[Guest]

Yep. I'm a UPS driver in PA

just a quick question.. does chambray shrink?
i bought myself a chambray shirt online and tried it on, only to realize it's HUGE!!! but from the measurements they should fit me…

[Guest]

I have a dumb question but it's something I've noticed with my jeans. I was wondering if the pros, maybe G or beatle would know…but I've noticed
that my whiskers on my right leg are much more pronounced than my left leg. You can definitely see the creases more. Anyone have ideas on why it's like this for me? Does this happen with everyone since the left side of the jean "overlaps" the right side, because of the fly?

It kind of bugs me. I love the look of the whiskers and it'd be dope if it was pronounced on both legs. Or is this something I should embrace?

haha i have the same problem.. for me it's because i wear the 25oz and have my mobile phone in my right pocket all the time. so there are weird short creases on the right but long on the left. i guess just embrace it. jeans are not meant to be worn perfectly

I'm wondering if one leg is longer or more muscle-packed than the other. Aka movement based. Kind of like supersalami's phone in one pocket…..

[Giles]

I suspect it is how you move/live your life.  My right knee always fades more than my left.  That's just the way the fades reveal how I wear them and what I do in them.

[Guest]

Yea. It's the whole point, you want weird different individual fades, if you want perfect cookie cutter fades, buy some pre distressed PRPS jeans. Anyway, after a long time.  It will all even out anyway.

[Snowy]

^nerkg, do you mean it'll all even out in the wash? :laughs my ass off: excuse the pun, couldn't help myself, I'll let myself out now

[zwer]

It might also be due to the fact that our bodies aren't perfectly symmetrical. I can tell you, for example, that my right calf is an inch bigger than my left, and my right foot is half a size bigger than my left.

[Guest]

No, I mean will even out with few years of abrasion. You won't even notice after another year of hard wear

[Guest]

I think the pun you were looking for was "it will all come out in the wash"

I wonder if the driving leg side of your jeans gets more whiskers than the other.

[DougNg]

My "not driving leg" gets more whiskers because it's usually leaning against the car door by the knee

I mostly rest on my right knee during work, so fades on right knee are more pronounced, and so are my left leg whiskers… The way of the road, buddy.

How does stacking work?

[Guest]

Think for the responses guys. I'm guessing it's my cell phone making the biggest impact since I carry it in my left pocket. It's kind of a pain with my devils since the top block is tighter. I might have to start carrying it in my back left :p

@natehate:

Gravity. Once the denim softens up, it can only go one way. I've noticed the longer I wear my jeans, the more stacks. Once the stacks settle, they just stay where they're at, even when I hang them. I think it looks cool when you hang them and they show the form of your body (stacks, knee bends, etc.).
