            @Oaktavia:

            Is anyone here joining the Redline Rally? https://www.indigoinvitational.com/redlinerally/

            IHUK is one of the chosen shops to purchase from for this comp. I joined (as well as the Indigo Invitational last year, but not with IH) and am curious if any forum members have interest in it…
            I ended up changing my entry to the IH-68 indigo...

            It is from May 1, 2021 - May 1, 2022.

            I registered and will join with IH-526J-22OD

            I’m thinking about registering as well… maybe with a IHSH-62, or 33-T[emoji848] …needs to be a long sleeve shirt I can wear during the Berlin summer months as well [emoji848]

              Both are solid choices dude. Would be rad if you did!

                Anyone ever had a boot that the sole squeaks? My Viberg boot squeaks and it drives me crazy. I don't think it is the insole because I glued it in with spray adhesive and pulled it back out and put some powder in there and tried it for a week, then glued it back in.

                I don't think it is the rubber sole where it contacts the ground either because I tried WD-40 and Aerokroil, plastic cleaner, etc.

                It must be the plies of leather in the sole…

                I wrote to them over a year ago and they said,  "just keep wearing it and it will go away eventually." It really pisses me off. 😑

                  That's crazy, I had a pair of Vibergs that developed a squeak after a year or two of solid use. Drove me insane and I ended up donating them to good will or some equivalent.

                  To be fair there were attempts at fixing before donating but the end result was giving them away…

                    Next I am thinking about drilling into the inside sole with a fine drill bit and injecting a small about of boot oil in there.

                      I like this idea @Filthy . I suppose the most likely offending spot ought to be where the sole flexes right? Where the ball of the foot falls. Please share pics and your results.

                            I ordered some of these so I can try it.

                            Edit: to answer your question, it seems like the squeak is located here:

                                Mike, i had a pair of lizard boots that were so LOUD i was asked to not wear them to work. I did everything including sending them back to Luchesse for warranty work to no avail. Ended up selling them. In my case. I think it was either the stitching. Which was redone by Luchesse or nails that were the culprit, tho im not a cobbler.

                                Feel yer pain. Hopefully the botox injections will fix it for you. Else the Vibergs will have added plumpness. Lol.

                                  Yeah, was thinking it could be a nail too. I might oil the inside sole and drill next to the nail in that spot and see what happens. I have a friend in TSA and I might see if see would take a pic of the xray and text it to me so I can see exactly where all the nails are….

                                    Has anyone repurposed older, worn-in jeans (or crunchy new new) for cycling or heavy-duty hiking/higher exertion activities? Anyone done that with either 21oz or something lighter like the 14oz denim? I commute a lot by bike and used to do so in some IH-301S, but then had to peel those damn things off by EOD. Mighta had to do a lot with the fact that they were skin tight lol  😃

                                      I basically live in my newest pair and do almost everything in them. But like swimming and bathing, and I can't wear them at work unless I want to wear them under FR coveralls (and die of heat exhaustion from the waist down) 😅

                                          Is there any harm in climbing under my truck and finding places like this and cleaning them off with like a brass brush and applying some Naval Jelly? My last truck was swiss cheese from rust after 10 years… like almost completely rotted away.

                                          I just gave my truck a good wash and it feels good to know that winter seems to be over.

                                            I was wondering why the tag feature sometimes results in a “red” tag that sends a notification, and sometimes a “grey” tag that just says “mention” and sends no notification?

                                            I originally thought that it was because members were not waiting for the pop up box to appear and just typing “@….”, but this is what it looks like

                                            Proper tag: @Giles
                                            Improper tag: @giles

                                            So I don’t know why some members like @Brock always have the [mention] next to the name.
