    @madmonday:

    cool.

    How long have you been a standing desk person & with all your healthier choices in life I have no freakin' idea who you are, hahaha

    what have you done with hard living, potato gun shooting, off-road driving, fisherman Giles, hahahahaha?

    This looks promising.

        I have a stander @ work too. I stand probably 3-4hrs a day, usually of a morning, and in bursts of an afternoon. I used to stand all day, but have regressed. It's great to have the flexibility and I find I move around/do more if I am standing…love it!

            Soft, not a 21. More of a pale blue mock twist chambray, exactly like the 65 (which was a western)… Yellow stitching... Selvedge... White buttons... Smells good as well - which is completely irrelevant.

            Anyone?..

                    Do more of what you like and less of what you don't. I find this surprisingly difficult but it works if you can manage it.

                      There was a blue IHSH-46 released in JP, but Giles didn't being them over because of the blue 21 iirc

                          Does anyone know where I can find a high-quality, military-style duffel bag?

                          Have you got a pic of specifically which style. There are lots of suppliers to the military who do mil-spec duffles are are you referring to an old school type?

                            After serving in the Army, I can tell you the old Vietnam style ones that are issued are CRAP! I kept one the whole time, because it was part of my inventory, but I used one of these:

                              pretty sure the question came up multiple times, but i found not that much - since i threw my denim in the washing machine this morning, how do you guys care for the leather patch? i used to use red wing mink oil on my 666 but that made the patch very dark brown and i wanted to keep the patch of my busters lighter, more on orange side. any ideas or cheap grandmother advice?

                              When my time comes I want to be buried face down. That way whoever doesn’t like me can kiss my ass.

                                    Yep, hand sew it. Use a backstitch:

                                      Try to incorporate the existing thread into the backstitch. If that is too difficult, cut it out, but just make sure the new backstitch overstitches the existing good stitches

                                        If the existing thread is too short, use a lighter to melt the poly-cotton thread and put a finger on it. If you check out the video about the IHUK hem-service you can see Giles do the same.

                                        I am looking for some white selvedge pants, jeans or chino. The white 21oz denim is too hot for the work at a childrens hospital with underfloor heating. The new double knee white loggers are too much because the double knees.
