Hi all,
Looking for someone to possibly date these UHRs I bought from Self Edge today. Apparently the guy who worked there said these have been one of the last pair held over from when the shop opened, about 7 or so years ago. They're raw, unsanforized, which I've been told is atypical of current runs of the IH-666-UHR. Here's a pic of the leather patch and the pocket info to help. If they're not an old version, no worries, just wondering.

As far as I know, those are def from the new run. The first 21/23oz denim wasn't even called uhr

Cool, thanks for the info! Either way, they're gonna be great!

All UHR (aka 21/23) denim is loomstate - UHR actually stands for Ultra Heavy Raw and has never been sold in any other guise that loomstate. The first run was released mid 2014 and has been re-run a number of times since then. No way of telling which run these were from, but I suspect they are from the initial run that was delivered early June 2014.

Is there a 'standard' chino hem length?

Or an average? 1"?

I had a feeling length might not be the right word!
Thank you

so i had this thought,
considering the continent of europe is one big land mass and all roads are a straight drive through without any customs etc in the EEC. assuming i was living in sweden where i think cars are more expensive, can i not just hop down to germany, buy a german car and drive it back?
-
You can, but I bet you have to pay some taxes and jump through some red-tape hoops. If we buy a car direct from Germany here in UK, we have to do also sorts of tiresome things…

yeah, i'd assume it's much simpler than it actually sounds. i mean of course there's border control between england and say the rest of europe. but on road, i'd doubt there's any border between say france and germany for example. i'm not sure if any of the nordic countries like norway, sweden and denmark have any border control.. i think the term i'm looking for is Schengen area countries.
because in that way, they can just buy a car in say germany (assuming german made cars) where it's cheaper and drive it as though you're going home to say sweden, france etc. without crossing any border control.

You're looking at things too simplistically Louis….Cars usually have to be licensed for use in a particular country. There are things that need to be done to conform to the countries laws as pertaining to motor vehicles and use on the road - e.g. the 10 year rule in Singapore

fair enough.. thanks G

Can some of my English friends please explain “Curry” to me..:
I’m intrigued and rather hungry and am interested in trying this raved about dish.
Is it red curry? Yellow curry? Chicken? Beef? Rice? Noddles? Something I’ve never heard of or had before??

Curry is loads of things.

Here is our favourite Curry Restaurant:

To cook curry properly, you do need a load of ingredients, because I cook a lot, I have most things needed, but it takes time to build the stock up.
Here are some good books…..If you can't get them in the US, let me know and I'll bring them from UK with me when we come to Austin....

Likewise, there is Thai curry and Japanese curry, in addition to Indian curry. Depends how spicy you like your food. I tend to favor Japanese curry because I grew up eating the stuff and it's mild. But I also like sweet/spicy Thai curry. If you want some serious 'ring sting' then Indian curry is pretty darned good too
