eczerwonka, Iron Heart 21oz are surprisingly very breathable. I say that I won't wear mine to India but it's more because as a woman, I wear my shit ultra tight (I wear slim cuts)…not much breathing room. So, for me -- the real reason I won't wear IH to India is that I wear tight jeans, not necessarily that they are 21oz. I'm willing to bet that my 2 pair of straight cut W30 21oz Iron Heart (baggier boyfriend fit) would be just fine in even HOT climates. As seen in LandoCal's and Special_K's previously posted pics, you realize that Bay Area hiking in Iron Heart garb is actually quite do-able and pleasant.

Wait a second…didn't you say you went to college in TX?

Are you a frickin longhorn?????

Actually, Till is a PhD from UT-Austin. I'm an undergrad from Texas A&M U., in College Station. But I may as well throw in that I have an MS from The University of Colorado, Boulder. To be honest, I wish I were a Longhorn. Coming from Akron, Ohio (where I attended high school), I didn't know the difference. Texas A&M University gave me little excuse but to study since College Station/Bryan doesn't have a lot going for it – unlike Austin, TX !

Dear God… How will I survive work today... 

[Seul]

I could post a pic of my mug and you'd all understand what I meant by that. I even think Shubz 'd be a tad worried 

Ah well… Gin-tonic makes the world go round...

@Seul:

Ah well… Gin-tonic makes the world go round...

And a nice large glass of Rioja (or 5) takes away the pain of skiing all day…

[Beatle]

I really want to believe that "skiing all day" part…

[Madame Buttonfly]

My poor knees tell me I'd be happier if I hadn't been skiing all day, but you don't know my sister, Sara.  She's a ski-monster.  A demon.  A great skiier but she def gets her money's worth from her ski pass.  I hurt.

[Beatle]

ski-monster ? Love it - we need to plan better , gotta go with u guys next year*****

Rioja - mmmmm… I once had a Slovenian wine though, that was as if you were drinking the blood of the Antichrist. Never found something like it anymore... It tasted as if were a mix of old cheese and some of the heaviest wine imaginable - and came in 50 cl bottles. Just because 75 cl. of it would probs've killed you. Or at leàst make you go out on a killing spree with a fistaxe.

Home from work. I survived it!.. Wine, pasta, and lotsa rest. So tired  :-\
