      Monday,

      I'm looking into buying a quality pair of jeans . .  . if you can tell me what makes a pair of jeans good quality that would be great. Also why do you favor ironheart denim? I look forward to your reply 🙂

      Figure this is one of those questions a lot of folks might want to take a crack at. I wish I could tell you what makes a quality pair of jeans, but in my experience they all wear out the same.  I'm sure it's not everyone's experience, but I'm just keeping it 100% with you. Now my take on Iron Heart is pretty straight forward.  I like them & so I purchase them.  It doesn't hurt that the company listens to it's customer & are just genuine people.  I know my answer may be a bit simple. . . . but that's really my take on it.  Maybe a few others will see this & take a crack at sharing their reasons.  No matter what you decide good luck on the hunt.

        Thinking about a duck engineers cap…. Do any of you fine individuals have any recommendations?

        How about this one?

        http://sfvmercantile.blogspot.com/2011/03/brown-cotton-duck-with-indigo-thread.html

        Cheers dude that is exactly the kind of thing.

        I did check this link out earlier but the post is from 2011 so I sadly may have missed the boat! May just give them a shout though!

        Cheers for the response dude.

        Of course man.

        There's one I've long admired, not in duck, but in horse blanket, and made by John Lofgren, who is always outstanding quality: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/speedway-shop/item/lc-021/

        Also a red chambray engineer's hat: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/speedway-shop/item/lc-019-red/?s-id=borderless_recommend_item_en

        Think it, be it.

            Why would a company make a pair if jeans with the material used completely inside out. Saw it on a site earlier this week and seems like a tremendously terrible idea. I'm sll about outside the box, but this just seems downright silly

              You've got it all wrong, they just swapped the warp and weft 😃

              But seriously, my mind's eye is crying.

                  If you're looking for an alternative to an engineer's cap, the Diamond Cap Co offers this one.

                  Unfortunately it's $200.

                    I'm a bit nervous…. A package that is scheduled to be delivered today from IHUK is currently on a UPS truck for delivery in a town approximately 45 minutes from me... Anyone had something similar happen? My packages from IHUK have never taken this route before....

                    *decided to contact ups who told me they are not sure why my package is in a different city and showing out for delivery. When I asked if they could call the service center they told me they can not do that, and that it "will probably get to me." When I asked if she was telling me they can not call the center to track the package down and make sure it gets to me, she again stated no. So I asked if I could speak to a manager of the dept. at which time she let out a huge sigh and become very attitudinal and told me they are just going to say the something. After 15 minutes on hold, she's back on the line, not the department manager and tells me "yes, he said the same thing" I tell her I asked to speak to a manager and she says, " I know so I spoke to him for you," I said, "no ma'am I asked to speak directly to a manager." At which time she again became very temperamental and told me fine she will connect me. I ended up getting her customer rep Id number before she set to connect me. Afterwards, she disconnected me.

                    Awesome.... Gonna be a Monday

                      Ok… After the crappy run in with the international CSR who apparently is not keen on the customer service part of being a CSR, I decided to call the last location it was at. Fortunately that lady was very friendly and within 30 minutes she was able to track it down, and reroute it. It's now on it's way and should be here this afternoon.

                        Phew - good news at last, tat!..

                        Why do people doing service jobs, not provide the proper, polite service they're being effin paid for… It's not always as easy (I speak from experience), but still...

                          I have (almost) infinite patience for customer service people, having worked in restaurants for so long, but rudeness is where I draw the line. You can eff-up and be dumb all day long, but cop an attitude, and I lose my patience real quick.

                              I'm having parcel woes too. 😞

                              Ordered up a rather expensive graphics card for a PC, and it's disappeared somewhere into the ether. I've tried my neighbours, and no-one has taken the parcel in.

                              Of course, I was in at the time it was allegedly delivered, but no-one knocked on my door…
