      I’m sure they are worthy! They’re the reason I’m in them right now… maybe you should join the GA chest snap club...

        I need to get my spending under control… I just bought another pair of XHS and a shirt today.... so probably not. 😢

          About how long does a UPS package (return label) take to get from East Coast CONUS to Gos Vegas?

          1-2 working days

              @The Web Minions I noticed my tag notifications/DM/email has been non-functional for the last 12 hours or so… I'm not complaining, but I figured you'd want to know. ❤😄

              Oops, I guess perhaps it was the gmail email server. Because I just got a few but it was rather belated.

                    Why are folk going to the trouble of typing [mention] username [/mention] instead of just typing someone’s username or actually tagging a person?

                    Am I missing something or is it just a bizarre faff?

                            Hey everyone. So I’ve been thinking about indigo overdying an old white hoodie that has a lot of food and coffee stains (which is mainly the reason I don’t wear white) and I was looking for resources on dyes to buy and techniques to use. I though you all might be the best to ask. Appreciate your replies!

                              Make an indigo vat. Gonna need to dye more than just a hoodie though. If you could find a few other things it would be worth the work to make a vat.

                              Here’s the place I buy from:

                              https://maiwa.com/collections/indigo

                              Or you could overdye with one of their other pigments which you could do in a smaller pot and not have to make a vat.

                                    Out of curiosity, what's the maximum amount of vertical shrinkage one can hope to get put of a pair of XHS? I've never had the foresight to try to figure this out on my own before. I figure about .75 of an inch?

                                      My 666-21s turned One yesterday and I love them _ But I want to try another weight for this spring-summer-
                                      Im thinking between the 666s-19ib and the 666s-142od.

                                      which one would consider more breathable?–-I recall you having these in the past maybe?
                                      Or maybe it was Alex-

                                      What I would really love would be the  666-19Leftys----but it says that they won't be made again-

                                      Any advice would be cool-----thanks

                                      I will try a different cut at some point, but for now im really liking the devils cut 🙂

                                        the 666S-19L will be restocked soon, but that denim is hotter than the 21 oz.

                                        I would look at the 14 or 18oz. The 18oz is very breathable.

                                          thanks for that fast reply Alex-  Great to know about the 19L`s. I think I need a lefty in my life:)
                                          As for now–-I will look more at those 18s---at some point I gave up on weight logic.
                                          ive got plenty of tops and need to beef up my bottoms---that came out wrong-
                                          you know what I mean.

                                            In my experience it had varied from 0.5-0.8” but that is with a hot (50-60C), soak, a little agitation and air dry. If you wanted to do a machine wash and tumble dry you may get an inch, not least on a pair with a full, unhemmed inseam.
