I’ve reached a point where I’d like to start wearing rings which speak to the day ahead. Never wore them before, other than a very low key standard wedding band. I’d like to read up on ‘everything bout rings’ before I get my first GAH one.
I’d be very happy to get recommendations here on what is interesting ring reading material. Thanks!

I personally cannot recommend highly enough…while the only ring (other than my wedding band) is an IH ring,
I have GA necklaces, bracelet, and clips (oh, and masks) and it’s all the highest quality.

Josh is the best (well, maybe tied with Giles)  and every item they make is amazing...you really can’t go wrong!

That is very kind of you, but seriously the extent of my creativity is limited to telling people how large the fish I lost were…..

I'm sure it has been (as always) asked many times before… But which of the following is the one that keeps the "warmest" (based on the breathability, thickness and etc.) if we had to put them in an order? (warmest > y > ... > coldest)

634S-21
634-XHS
634S-142
634-XHSib
634S-142ib

[Giles]

634-XHSib
634-XHS
634S-142ib
634S-142
634S-21

Would be my guess

Can I ask a leather question here? (Mods, forgive me if there is another thread for this - and feel free to throw me over there instead.)

Is leather dyeing a thing? Does anyone know of a reputable place in the UK (pref. London) I could get some tan leather darkened?

Or am I talking complete nonsense?

Thanks all…

Perfect thread choice @Polly.  It is a thing, but who could do it for you is beyond me. I’d get in touch with Simmons Bilt. They are friends of IH, based in Scotland and I’d imagine they know someone.

[Polly]

Thanks so much, @neph93 - will do. (And will try NOT to buy a leather jacket in the process…)

I'm going to be spending a month in Maine. I'm trying to travel relatively light. Is 3 denim jackets overkill? 

[Jett129]

Where in Maine?

Not in the least. I had two with me on my recent road trip through Norway, plus a type III vest. We aren’t savages after all.

Phippsburg.

We'll have a washing machine there so I'll save space by only bringing 2 pairs of underwear and washing one every day. Gotta make room for jackets.

Was there a plan for a 634S-21 in Indigo/ Black?

[Giles]

There is no 21ib…...Yet......

[RoxRocks86]

This sounds promising

[cityofdelusion]

@Giles:

I know… I just specifically added the 634S to the question just to make sure

Looking forward to 21ib

I'm fairly certain that I read about a 666XHSib being released eventually back when the pandemic had just started. Is that still a planned product?

[Giles]

All of the core cuts; 555, 634, 666, 777 and 888 are being released in both XHS and XHSib.  Most have now arrived so I'm assuming the 666's wont be far away….
