@Clint_D:

Is it possible to buy a GAH brass split ring?  Just the split ring itself?  If so, how or where?

I think we have some lying around.  Let me check…..

[Clint_D]

That would be great if you have any extra I could buy! Thanks @Giles!

[Giles]

How can you put a price on Shit Hot Quality?

Hey y'all, question regarding the top of this GA hat. Is it possible to remove the flower and fix it to a button on a shirt? Or use it like a lapel pin? It spins but does not unscrew…was wondering if this is a possible to add to my duck Untucked shirt or my wabash work shirt...

@Warner can you please advise about the above post? Thanks!

Doesn’t it snap off like a snap-cap?

Hi all, sorry this took a minute. Sometimes I have a hard time navigating message boards. 

The snap is a standard one, get your finger nail under it and pry it off the top. It will pop off, I promise. But they are on there pretty tightly. If you trash your hat you can pop that thing off and snap it on your leather. Hope that helps and hope you're all great.

Best, Josh

Yes, totally, same piece as the snap caps.

It won’t go on your IHSH-68 as there are no snaps for it, but if I remember correctly The Untucked uses CPO snaps so it will go on there.

[Oaktavia]

@neph93 oh yeah, duh, that shirt has buttons! But it popped right off like @Warner said.

8. now if it weren't 90 degrees F….

…I have a question Sir Giles, we're entering summer with high temperatures and high humidity and I'm reevaluating my staunch loyalty to the 25oz XHS offerings. Now, I've read on the forums that the 14oz jeans are not necessarily 'cooler' wearing as you would think because of the weave, my question, is what do you think/know are the weight in ounces that the typical Levi's jeans would be? I wore the 505's exclusively for about a hundred years until I found Iron Heart. Thanks, Curious George.

[neph93]

That would depend on what kind of Levi’s we are talking about but I’f imagine standard mass produced Levi’s from recent years are in the 10-12oz range. I’m sure G-san will know fo sho.

[Jett129]

For the longest time Levis were 14.75 ounces,and over time that number kept dropping,and you were lucky to get a pair around 13OZ. So one day I goggled Heavyweight Denim,and here we are.

…@Jett129 that's exactly what I had found! They were getting whimpier and whimpier. Found IH and it was 'see ya' later'!

...@neph93 so if I were looking for a 'summer jean' weight would you steer me towards the 21oz before the 14oz? Doesn't seem right but if the weave is tight and doesn't breath in the 14oz weight I guess it makes sense. :o

[Jett129]

I wear my 21OZ all Summer in NYC. Took a little getting used to,but when it’s one of those hot fucking muggy days, no matter what you’re wearing you’re going to be uncomfortable. On the bike no matter how hot it is once you’re moving you’re fine.

Going from PBJ's last summer to IH 21oz this summer, the IH's definitely breathe more, and so far I have been able to wear them every day this muggy/hot spring so far, highest temp being about 87 with high humidity.
