      1. I only like denim in 2 phases - really, really dark and crispy and really, really worn.

      2. Heritage Workwear companies need to stop using 100% cotton threads. I get the idea of staying authentic to the original spec'd items, and if your fabric shrinks like crazy poly-threads don't always adjust as well, but jeez- why should I need to be repairing my jeans and work shirts after every wear when they are only 3 months old? (BTW, I have NEVER had this issue with IH jeans…)

        I wouldn't really call the cotton thread opinion unpopular.  If anything, I'd say that people who want 100% cotton thread are an exceedingly small minority.  Cotton thread is terrible.

        And I'd love it if IH made a non-fading 634, ideally with deep blue warp and weft, like an IH-634SII-NF…

          @Chris - perhaps it could be made and called the 'SuperBlue" instead of "superblack"

            I am the same with the 2 stages of denim. Love the brand new stage and love the well worn in too. Once they start to show signs of wear I want them to get to proper faded as quickly as possible

                  My PN avenger is my go to beach hat and I love it. Well made, great fabric that gets better and better in the sun. I like the fact that it's different and that every other bastard is not wearing one. Keep up the good work I say.

                  Why is this unpopular?

                        I like that he refers to himself in 3rd person because it makes his posts/writing fun & it shows he doesn't take himself 2 seriously, hahahahaha

                        On the contrary, my experience with people who refer to themselves in the third person is one of deluded, egotists with a messiah complex. It is funny though.

                                    "Classic" rock is horrible.  Businesses should never, ever play it, unless they are actively trying to drive customers away.

                                    To quote Matt Farrell from Live Free Or Die Hard, "Just because it's old doesn't mean it's classic.  What sucked then still sucks now."

                                      But surely there are different types of classic rock?  The Rolling Stones "I'ts only Rock n Roll (But I Like It)" = good, anything by U2, not so good.

                                        Nope.  Hate it all.

                                        And while I'm on the subject, if we define popular by sales totals, the Music thread is one long unpopular opinion.

                                          @Chris - I'm with you. I can appreciate the classic rock that pushed us where we are now (which is not very good, mind  you), but I wouldn't choose to listen to it if I had the choice.

                                          Oh, and while we are at it…Sweet Home Alabama, Freebird, Highway to Hell, anything Beatles, and Wagon Wheel (not classic, but oh so annoying) should be outlawed from every radio station, Cover Band and DJ Set forever.

                                          For me, "Rock" didn't start until Johnny Rotten picked up a mic and ended when Dimebag Daryl was killed.

                                            I'd personally reserve my hate for Adele and Sam Smith than ANY classic rock.
