      Can somebody please link me to the Washing Guide?
      I can't seem to find it…
      Or alternatively,
      Let me know what the best way to wash my 555-01's  😃 !!

        Thanks G,
        By 40degrees/100degrees F

        Do you mean that 40degrees Celsius?
        Or 100degrees Fahrenheit is maximum?

                        interesting… Not that I need another belt, but then that never stopped me.

                          Please excuse my ignorance but I'm completely new to this, I'm thinking of Waxing my Olive IH deck jacket for the rainy winter days (with otter wax) I was wondering if I'm better off using Barbour Wax instead? Also if I apply the wax and heat it through in the oven is it going to melt right through the other side of the jacket and leave me with a horrible waxy lining to my jacket? Any help would be great here!

                          Best

                              Hei Jord Do it with the blowdryer as shown in the vid for the deck, baking in the oven could not be good for the inner lining imho. I baked the RS duck because its without lining. Take your time its pretty funny to do

                              Cheers,

                                I hear it's best for the fabric to be warm as well as the stuff being applied. So heat a portion of the fabric, keep the wax hot, apply to warm/hot fabric, etc

                                Think it, be it.

                                  I know I'll most likely get a biased answer to this but just wanted to hear your thoughts.

                                  Which one?

                                    the IH one and not because I'm biased, what I'm… but since I prefer the look of the IH one, the shape of the arms, the details on the IH one, over the Spiewak and the fact; that the Spiewak one looks fugly in the pics, what prob have a lot to do with the over the moon ugly Levi's the dude in the pic is wearing...

                                      well I actually like the collar and the actual fabric of the spiewak a lot more tbh., though the placement and form of the side pockets of the IH one, as well as the inner lining is "better" than on the spiewak…still need to see pics of the inner lining of the spiewak though!

                                      no big help I know -.-

                                        think the cut of the IH N1 is nicer, but if you looking to spend less that 25% off that spiewak would be the game changer.

                                          My buddy gets me 50% off.

                                          Also, I think the arms on the IH N1 might be too monstrous for me.

                                            sounds like your mind is made up. you tried on D666s IH N1?

                                            Hard to say no to 50% off an already well priced item, sh!t that's less than a brand new flannel from many brands.  . .
