          @mclaincausey - feel free to stop by and introduce yourself sometime if you ever find yourself in Boulder! I was actually talking about this with my roommates this morning. To be honest, I didn't even know this information until the results were already pouring in. Like you said, bravo to the opposition for not stepping there.

            I stopped into Self Edge LA today to look at some Good Art Hollywood rings.  I love the lock of the rocklock ring but my fingers are just too thin to sport this manly chunk of silver.  If you have a ring size of 11, you should pick this guy up!

            While I was there, I asked if they had the IHSH-177.  I have the IHSH-178 in a large but always suspected I should have picked up a medium instead.  Sure enough, the IHSH-177 medium fit like a dream.  I ended up walking out of the store with the IHSH-178 in a medium and now I have to sell my IHSH-178 in large.  So much stuff to sell…

            I did notice that this particular IHSH-178 had silver/grey (not shiny) buttons compared to the copper buttons of my IHSH-178.  Did those change between batches?

              I think they overdyed them resulting in the silver color.

                The buttons themselves are overdyed?!  That's bananas!  How does one overdye a button?? I figured the fabric was overdyed first then sewn together, buttons added much later in the process, so that the fabric overdye process wouldn't affect the buttons.

                  I guess I said it wrong. The buttons are left on during the OD process resulting in the silver color. If I have this wrong,someone please correct me.

                    Jet's right- the overdyeing happens after the garment is made.  It's a pretty aggressive process, with lots of heat, agitation, and chemicals, so sometimes the hardware changes appearance significantly.

                                  Something totally unexpected happened today.  I was having lunch and a guy walked by with big cuffs in his jeans. I noticed they were selvedge, so I glanced up to see what brand.  He was wearing Iron Heart!  This is the first time I've ever spotted IH in the wild.  I was so stunned, I didn't even say anything.

                                        I might be more likely to say something if they were wearing an IH top versus denim. I try to put myself in someone’s shoes and ask myself, would I be more weirded out if a stranger complimented my jeans or my shirt/jacket? Definitely the former for me [emoji848]

                                          I've been denim-bombed twice, and it was so random and quick… Which is good. No way in hell I would ramble on with a stranger about the finer points of warp, weft, and whatnot. But, I have never spotted anyone else wearing IH
