      @Jii:

      Thanks, I'll try to sneak in there before I leave on sunday. I'm going to visit Loopwheeler anyway which is in the neighbourhood. I really hope they have crewnecks in my size there, SDA's largest was an M and OT&E did have lots of nice stuff but none in my size. I'm SO the wrong size for japanese shops.. Except for IH of course :).

      Keep your fingers crossed for Loopwheeler, their indigo and heather grey crewnecks are beautiful!

      i think you will like tenderloin.  They are more generously sized than most japanese brands.

          My dad uses a pair of Sony's

          The big ass kind that go over your head and ears like earmuffs. They work pretty good

            I have had 3 pairs of Bose over the ears, and they hurt when you go to sleep in them.  Want in ear now…......

              Budget?  Solid in-ear with the proper fit won't need "noise cancelling" tech.  I wear them all day and can't hear anyone, even if they're directly in front me within a few feet.

                  i have some normal sennhieser earbuds that go in like earplugs and even though they arent noise cancelling they work better for that specific purpose than the noise cancelling earbuds that i do own.

                    and you get 3 different sizes of rubber earbuds so they always fit

                      Klipsch S4 (my current ones) & Etymotic ER6is (had two pairs) are good for under $100.  It really depends on how anal you are about sound.  Once fitted (they come with different sizes & types of buds) they block sound out really well.  The Klipsch are built a bit better and have lasted longer for me.  Like I said, I use these things 6-10hrs a day.  Both do a good job on planes.  If you want to get into audiophile stuff, start looking at high-end Shures and think about custom ear molds.  Stay away from the low-end Shures though, they have too many problems and don't last.

                        Just curious…I think these Beatle Busters are great and fit me better than other jeans I have ever tried on.  It's tempting to want to purchase a second pair at some point.  So do any of you own 2 of the same pair of jeans?

                              You could cop the SBG Busters when they arrive.. Unless you just want the same color, which doesn't really make sense to me..

                                  They are great. I think im about to break the bank and have 3 pairs come April per Giles BB ETA.

                                      Just wondering if anyone here has ever had their IH shirts tailored like taking the waist in.  My IHSH-23 fits me perfectly in the chest and shoulders but is pretty large around the belly.  I was thinking of sending it in to take in an inch on each side.  I've already hot washed and machine dried the shirt for maximum shrinkage.  Just wanted to see if anyone has done this and if you had any advice.

                                            i dont own a IH shirt but from what i understand they have fallen side seams with a guest which makes it slightly difficult to alter. Not impossible but not all tailors would put it back to that standard which to me is a shame.

                                            your other option would be to put back darts in, i personaly dont like darts on men's shirts but it is common practice these days.
