should i buy a braided leather wallet rein the same colour as my wallet (Mid Brown) or buy it in natural leather ?

thanks

[injunjack]

natural will get indigo stains fast….if you don't like that, buy mid brown

[Max Power]

I would prefer natural leather over all other. You can oil and tan it yourself to darken it. Much cooler

In the fridge?.. Why did you put it in the fridge?.. 'at 'd be a weird sight…

"Ok so we're good on peppers, mushrooms, carrots, jeans, eggplant,... WAIT A SECOND!.."

You put it in the freezer or let it air outside man...

@injunjack:

how about good old fashioned washing.

When I was younger, people used to wash their clothes when they get dirty or smelly…

Maybe it's a generational thing, but I remember growing up and seeing a lot of people that didn't wash their jeans…

We called them "homeless" in NYC

@Seul:

634SR: big no-no
Overdyed jeans: no-no
Anything else by Iron Heart: sure!..

I feel that the 634SB is still ok. The 634SR will be a definite No.

^what's the argument against od? the dark colour? The breathability should be equally good on both s and SB, or am i wrong?

[Seul]

Overdyed is warmer. Maybe it's my imagination, but there's my 2 cents either way…

[Beatle]

lol- I don´t find od warmer than regular indigo, but that´s just me

every time you wash you loose precious indigo

So?? jeans fade, and washing them is normal usage of a garment…not washing them when they are soiled is quite odd...

[jimmy]

i wasnt having a dig at ya just giving a reason for why we're talking about doing what we do.

not that we never wash our jeans just trying to keep it at a minimum so we get more of a contrast fade rather than a overall even fade. at least thats why i do it.

I'm curious why the ih301 series has no outer selvedge showing
and is the 301s-bk selvedge too?

If I recall right, the visible selvage line got cut because it's a tapered fit

[Giles]

Not quite correct, the whole cut of the 301 was designed for a non selvedge denim so showing the selvedge line was not an important consideration.  When we designed the 666 which is also tapered, we disigned it to show the selvedge line.

The 301S is selvedge, look at the fly construction.  The only 301 jean that is non-selvedge is the 9301.  G

thanks max power and giles for clearing that up
