Me mate's asking this… Doesn't have to sell IH jeans per se, just some good stores (Rivet & Hide is only online yeah?)...

ELI

Any good jeans stores in London?!

[tmg]

Liberty
Son of a Stag
Rivet and Hide have a pop- up store in Oxford St, (their website has the details)

STUPID question, but when doing the initial soak on unsanforized, should I keep the jeans buttoned up or not?

[Giles]

Makes no difference…G

[Chris]

Might make it a tad easier to button them up after they dry, since the holes will be held open, but that's about it.

Has Iron Heart ever considered or might consider triple stitching loopwheeled collars? I know it'd probably be too conspicuously influenced by flat head but that would seriously make Iron Heart tees absolute king. I can dream…

[Chris]

Honestly, I'm not a fan of the Flat Head collars.  I much prefer the ones on IH tees.  I think this is one of those details where you'll probably get as many people against change as there are in favor.  Much like the discussions about the sleeves on the tees (Longer!  No, shorter! No, same length, but more tapered! ).

[grandmasterben]

Yeah I definitely see that. I think the aesthetic is cooler than plain collars but its also my paranoia. I've only had my tee for a few days though, how much do these collars stretch out, if any?

[tmg]

No collar stretch whatsoever on any of mine, and that's across both printed and pocket T's

[Chris]

None on mine, either.  Basically, the shirts just get softer over time, but don't change otherwise.

I can't stand FH collars!

[grandmasterben]

Hmm really? On me at least the collars aren't "tight" by any means, they just feel especially resistant to slouching over them.

[bagley920]

Maybe I just have a big head but it's a war getting them on

@injunjack:

Anybody know european retailer with on-line shop for Goodwear T-shirts??

(Aero doesn't count, they are out of stock in my size and don't know if they're restocking…)

So no shops that carry Goodwear shirts in EU area??

Hi guys, the button hole stitching is unravelling on my samurai jeans, does anyone know how I could go about fixing this myself rather than taking them to a tailor? If anyone knows the name of a stitch to look up on youtube I would be grateful

Thanks
