Definitely. I bought one for our Disney trip and it was a blast.

Hey, because there are a lot of dodgy scammers out there trying to sell fake nike shoes… is nike.com the only place to buy nike shoes from? I honestly dont trust any site that has nike in the domain name apart from the offical nike.com site.. afterall that a trademark so that site carnt be trusted.

+1 on the GoPro. I like the timer function. Set at every 30 secs and go.

There are a tons of legit sites, but try the usual suspects if you're looking for basic Nike sneakers:

Nikestore
Eastbay
Foot Locker
Champs
Pick Your Shoes
Zappos

If you're looking for rare, legit Nikes or Jordans try "flightclub.com."

I got two random questions…

Anyone know about how many man hours it takes to make a pair of IH jeans?

Do you think IH will ever try and use Zimbabwe cotton to make denim? The long staple american cotton is great, soft for the weight. Just curious if the Zim is longer/softer and a possibility in IH future?

[Giles]

1. Don't know, but there is massive variation between 17 and 25oz
2. We used to, but stopped and changed to USA - and guess what? No-one noticed (me included).  Within reason, Haraki does not really care where raw materials come from as long as long as the spec he demands is met.

I'm in the market for a new, counter depth refrigerator for my house and I've seen some Fhiaba units that look pretty amazing.  They're relatively new to the US market and I haven't been able to find much info on them.  Can anyone chime in on this?

[Jordonf9]

Love my IH loomstate. But my fiancee won't let me was them due to the butt/crotch pop due to being stiff and shifting of the denim.

Anyone know a way to soften the denim up without affecting the look on the outside?

I know one answer will be, wear them out, but I am guessing that will be months before they soften up that much.

Anyone? Thanks

I do squats personally. Sets the creases and breaks in the denim.

[Jordonf9]

Guess I'll have to starting doing 500 squats a day then… Ha.

Anyone else interested in one of these would be welcome to join.

I would buy one if they could get their act together and sell them.
