      Quick answer - yes.

      I have a temperature controlled beer fridge set at 12 degrees, I have tested it and it is indeed 12 degrees, but the inside still frosts and you get a film of lightly frosted condensation on your bottles. It doesn't bother me as I'm not an anal retentive Belgina with a penchant for porcine love.

          Not necessarily; frosting is from humidity more than temperature.  If you have a good seal on the door and the inside of the fridge stays dry(ish), then you shouldn't have a problem.  My beer fridge is out in my garage, fully subject to the swamp-like Houston atmosphere, and I haven't had any problems with frost buildup.

            Yup, shitty seal equals humidity equals frost.

                    Hi all,

                    I wanted to see if anyone had any experience modifying IH shirts. I did a search through the forum and it seems like people are able to shorten the sleeve and shorten the shirt, however details on exactly what was done is lacking.

                    Specifically, when shortening the sleeves, is it more advisable to modify from the cuff or the shoulder? Can a competent tailor replicate the stitching on the shoulder seam? What about the flat inside seam? Is there any fabric that is especially hard to tailor, such as heavy weight denim?

                    Thanks!

                    Dan

                      Dan in my limited experience sleeves are always shortened from the cuff the cuff removed excess removed and then resewn.
                      a competent and experienced tailor/seamstress should be able to do all the above, however I have seen a few faces that look like this [emoji50] when presented with heavy weight denim as their needles/machines have to be up to the job.

                        @d.s3 Have a tailor remove the shirt cuff completely and reattach it at the point to achieve the desired shirt sleeve length  🙂
                        I've had a Belstaff Trialmaster jacket sleeve lengthened, at Hideout Leathers, using a similar method however with the addition of millerain cotton to achieve the desired length.

                          @Black Orchid Thanks! I can totally see that face! Will ask my tailor about shortening at the sleeves!

                            I might need to move a button on my Jeans. Is there a way to get the old button undone without destroying it?

                                          I'm looking to sell a pair of Viberg x IH service boots but not really how to price them or what's fair. They're in great condition. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!

                                            Post them in the B&S at a rate you feel is fair. I sold my last pair for $350USD YMMV.
