      Thanks for the feedback. Looking at a lined winter work jacket from one brand or the other. Was curious to experience and how much one could customize pieces to fit the need

        Looking to get some basics and came across this site. Just seeing if anyone has had any experience with them. Or have any info at all. They have lady white co and velva sheen at discounted prices. But my spider senses started tingling. Thanks in advance.

        So I guess my question: Is this website legit.

          It is not legit, it's a phishing site used to collect people's cc data.

          Nope, nope, nope.

              Never heard of this company. I did a quick look on their site – no address info, email seems dodgy, everything marked down. They could be legit but when in doubt avoid like the plague.

                        IH's IG posts. Not that it matters. I've just noticed that a lot of your recent posts haven't had Sam in them.

                          As Sam is the photographer, it makes it a little more challenging for him to be the model outside the studio

                              I don't know if any of you are into martial arts but I'm looking for class recommendations for my son. We started talking about it last night and he's very interested. He's also got a ton of energy so having an outlet for him is important. Problem is, there are so many disciplines and I don't know which to choose. Do I go with karate? Judo? Tae Kwan Do? He said he just wants to learn how to chop wood planks in half  😃

                                I can’t speak for the other disciplines, but my son has been doing karate for 7 years and absolutely loves it.
                                I think finding a good instructor is more important than the discipline you choose.

                                  Thanks. I spoke with another parent I know and she said she sent her boys to a karate school near me when they were little. She spoke highly of the instructor as well.

                                    I loved training in Hapkido, which is a 20th-century Korean martial art fusing soft Japanese traditions such as Jujutsu and Aikido with Korean striking techniques as found in disciplines like tae kwon do. This hybrid of soft and hard techniques I think is great. You get the devastating Korean strikes, though circularly- rather than linearly-focused, and the redirective, joint-locking, and pressure point techniques from Japan. I believe it to be an excellent street fighting and self-defense discipline too, plenty of ways to really hurt someone bad, or to suppress their aggression as appropriate the the scale of danger you're facing. The first technique we were taught was a nasty little shin kick to catch your opponent off guard. Every lesson incorporated joint locking and pressure point strikes. The discipline also incorporates disarming tactics for ancient and modern weapons. In its practicality for self-defense and its focus on fitness, it reminds me of Krav Maga. In its discipline (sitting in seiza for long durations, etc), it reminds me of karate.

                                    Our instructor would do an hour of fitness followed by an hour of instruction.

                                    Think it, be it.

                                      @gaseousclay My son studied Taekwondo (Spelling) for 12 years achieving the rank of 3rd degree black belt. I can not say enough about the school and the wonderful instructors he had there. I think whatever he decides to study the instructors are so important. One day my son was groggily stumbling out of his room,figured I could hit him,and in 5 seconds he had me on the floor. I said how’d you do that to which he replied I’m a black belt. There’s that to consider.

                                        Quick question - Does anyone know where i can get a set of Vibram 100 heels in Oz?  I've tried a number of places in the States and Canada, but for whatever reason they won't ship to Australia.

                                          The IH crew has/will chicken leg bottoms into shorts.  My thought/question is:  Have they chicken armed any tops?  A hickory/wabash short sleeve could be pretty 😎.

                                            @gaseousclay I used to practice Wing Chun until my Sifu decided to partially severe his hand. Since we moved I have not joined a new club, but I will, and when our son is 5 I'll look at joining him. The internet is full of subjective views about what is the most effective martial art in a street scenario. The simple answer is 'none', as you wouldn't be fighting like for like. Most martial arts practitioners I've ever met who have had to defend themselves have used some of the techniques they've learned combined with simply brawling.

                                            I want our son to develop the confidence and self assuredness to say no to his peers in difficult situations. Feeling confident in your physical capabilities helps with that.

                                            Wing Chun is the basis for quite a lot of modern martial arts. It's focus is on efficiency, so using defence and attack at the same time. There are also grappling moves in more advance techniques. I'd definitely look into it….
