        yeah, I think I will. They only need a little bit more consistency on the dye.

              Yeah, the denim seems to have tigher weave than the 634S.

                Yes, completely different, the 634S breathes really well, the 634SR does not.

                      It might also have to do with the massive hangover the next day…

                            Got the extra dye today so will get messy later. Will post pics when dry - so probably Sat.

                              Ok, I dont actually wholeheartedly recommend doing a DIY overdye, results are ok and wearable (and it was quite fun doing it) but not befitting the quality of the subject, pics:

                                Doing it with a fairly faded pair is the problem, all the evo causes uneven overdye, but on the other hand why would you do this with a box fresh pair? So, the conclusion - if you want OD, buy some 634S-B.

                                        More of a question on caring for an IH T-Shirt. So I unfortunately have 3 White IH T's with slight yellowing under the pits. I only wore them twice so I know that it is a combination of my deodorant and detergent. Wondering if anyone have any experience with bleaching T-Shirts? More importantly White T-Shirts with IH prints/ logos on them… Any help would be much appreciated!

                                          I've had some success with white vinegar added to the washing cycle.  I've always found bleach to be too abrasive and while it will help to cut stains, it'll probably also cut the life of they shirt.

                                          Edit for clarity: Vinegar is already a weak acid so too much can't really hurt, but I usually add around 1 cup per gallon of water.  Also, I usually just soak w/ vinegar and wash normally.

                                          Also edit: http://laundry.about.com/od/vinegarinthelaundr1/tp/vinegarhub.htm
