I'll get you for that, Mac.

Personally I don't give a jot. People can choose to sell how they like. Both approaches have pros and cons….
I'm generally not bothered about what is for sale, so I read my new messages (except anything that looks like a sale or a WTB) until it is obvious that what's left are just sales-related posts. I then scan the titles, if there is nothing of interest, I "Mark all as read"...
-
I skim through the sales posts, but like Giles, I couldn't care less how people organize their sale posts.
Of course, now that I'm no longer a moderator, my opinion is even more irrelevant.

I know some of you own Patagonia outerwear but one of my pet peeves since owning my down jacket is the zipper on the inside pocket getting caught in the fabric every time I unzip it. I believe the inner pocket also serves as a stuff sack but one of these days I’m gonna tear a hole in it. Any of you experience this?

I only have a NanoPuff, but it’s thin enough that the zip doesn’t pull the fabric. I was really easy on that jacket at first but I found it’s more durable than I had thought.

Sulphur dyed would be awesome too !
edit: I have a Howies down, and both the inner pocket and outer pocket Zips are too small and snag the fabric, great jacket otherwise.

RRL stuff looks so cool on the website but when you get it the quality is meh and the prices are outrageous. Like no one would accuse IH of being inexpensive, but when you get it you're never dissatisfied.

Just putting this out there….Indigo Chambray......
Nice. Reminds me of these quilt tops from Patagonia except with the IH twist [emoji106]

Celebrity Cruises has been running an Ad with they're rendition of Grace Slick's White Rabbit, which is done nicely, now I can't get the song out of my head.

As the song goes, or as the dormouse said.

Than you for this. I have a finger on the trigger often on really cool looking RRL stuff, but I don't own any. Here in Minnesota we don't have any retailers who carry it so i have no clue on fit and sizing. If, as you say, it's not up to par with Iron Heart's quality (few are), I simply won't bother. it is really expensive to be a letdown.

I have 3 RRL shirts that I bought on clearance a few years back from their site. One is a western, one is a work shirt (the Matlock) and the third is kind of a military styled shirt with the pleated chest pockets, whatever they're called. I went with size large on all three shirts and while they're slightly on the long side, they did shrink down a little with repeated washes/dry. I might've been able to get away with a medium but barely.
I think I wear the western the most out of all three, with the military styled shirt being worn the least, mainly because the fold on the chest pockets came unraveled in the washer/dryer and looks like a deflated sack. RRL makes _some_decent pieces, but these are the ones that are MiUSA. My shirts are all made in China….I think, and I wouldn't pay the prices I paid if I were to buy their shirts again. Of course, we're comparing apples to oranges here and there's simply no contest that IH shirts are superior in every way. If you like their style and if you can get their stuff cheap then I say it's worth it.
