On your top 4 list, I would recommend Portland. Lots to do and eat. As far as that goes, there's lots of great places in Oregon. LA is nice but you would spend half your time sitting in traffic. My favorite city in the states is San Diego. Just my 1 cent worth.

Anyone know of a high-end boot maker (other than Wesco, Viberg, Clinch) that would make an Engineer Boot with a western toe?
oh fuck yeah! and in shark or elephant. for a friend.

+1 for Alaska. Colorado and New mexico are great too but be mindful of altitude changes and time to adjust.

Another great spot not on your list is Asheville, NC. you could spend a day going through Biltmore and surrounding are, make sure you have a meal in the Grove Park Inn. Then downtown has lots of shops and great eating and drinking spots. @Appfaff

I will second this! Spent a week at the Grove Park Inn and the food was outstanding! While we were there, took a guided day trip to the Biltmore and around Asheville. Beautiful town and great experience!

Everyone thinking about coming to Asheville, I’m a native, and I live here now! I’m open to meetups, but I’ve also got the inside scoop on food, beers, and cocktails! I will give it some thought and pop a list of my favorites somewhere, if y’all are interested.

my wife and I enjoyed the “Sunset Terrace” and the “Vue1913” at the Grove Inn.
I have been to both, and both are excellent.

Giles what's your favorite pair of jeans you ever did? What thing have you made that you're most proud of?
-
Yes, The IH-666S. It was my first attempt at designing a jean and speccing a denim…..
I'm very proud of the 25oz denim.
And UHF. H had given up on making it because the guy who weaves it "has moved to another mill, and I do not know where". I "suggested" he found out where the guy had moved to and start making it again......
-
Thanks for sharing that. And again I’m sorry if I offended the cut you designed and are most proud of… holy shit I can really put my foot in my mouth.

I absolutely love the 25 oz denim. My new pair was nice enough for me to switch from my overalls today. They are flying with me in my suitcase so I hope they are safe. Haha
That's cool to know. Thanks.

The 25oz denim is next on my list as I have yet to experience that fabric.

You should receive a very healthy lifelong pension for this reason alone. UHF's are what drew me to IH in the first place and are exactly what IH are all about (among other things of course). There is truly nothing else like them on the market and the ones I own consistently get positive remarks and compliments on them from friends and strangers alike. To me that speaks for itself and is a testament to the quality and uniqueness.
