      @Heavy_blue I am so sorry that you feel this way, you are a valued and appreciated member, and you will be missed. Of course, I (we) can't stop you, if you want to leave. But personally, I would prefer you to stay. I don't know if you are talking about stuff that happened in DM's or outside the forum completely, but I can't see any real shit being talked about you.

      I can't answer for others, but my guess is that given the brilliance of the start of this tour, people were a tad disappointed that it slowed down when it hit The Netherlands. Yes of course none of us had any idea of your personal issues, problems, diversions, whatever, unfortunately, that is the way of the web and social media.

      So, I think what you saw was disappointment and frustration, that is all.

        @Heavy_blue You are an amazing forum member and you have maybe the best hair East of the Mississippi. I also won't try to stop you from popping off for bit if you so choose. I want to add a couple Jeff blurbs as I've been known to do.

        1. Volunteering for a world tour comes with it's own set of made up standards and you may catch some flack for whatever reason.
          B. I think someone received a world tour item once and was never heard from again, so people have a heightened sense of awareness when time goes by with no word.
          2C. I have had to deal with this myself when the Mad Red went missing for months and months. I simply Added the tracking to the website so everyone was on the exact same page as I was.
        2. No one can say anything worse to me than I scream at myself in the bathroom mirror in the morning, that when the real insults get slung.
          D. Hopefully you can brush it off and stick around. We all love your content and fits and overall style and vibe, and I especially liked all the things you shared during your stint with the Wabash.
          Lastly, my advice is when in doubt, get on a horse and let nature sort it out.

          @Heavy_blue I'll piggyback off @jordanscollected comment here. I've really enjoyed conversations with you both off and on this forum. Appreciate your knowledge of, and passion for, these shared interests that bring us all together, and have especially admired your candidness about your own personal issues during your leg of the tour.

          Sometime the intentionality and tone of text based communication is difficult to ascertain, particularly if approached with a less than positive or self-conscious mindset, but as a neutral observer, I've seen nothing posted here that has led me to believe you're not a respected and valued member of this community.

            Let me first say thanks to you all for replying in this wonderful way! I don’t wanna steal any time away here in this tour and without further ado we should @Aetas give his shine. Let me clarify that there was nothing said in this thread about me, but behind my back? Yes! Also let me clarify that it doesn’t bother me that much but i wanted to make a statement that words, although it are just words could really harm people! For now i’m sending you love and i wish @Aetas the best legg of his life!

              After all this months of waiting to contribute, thought I’ve the right words to start and the best first picture to show …. but I’ve not!

              First leg in here started glorious with @denim-dawg and @Stitch . Their contribution set standards and ended up in the Arctic Adventure Series.

              Without @neph93 , no Heritage Tour!

              And after all this conversations with @Heavy_blue , I can say he is a great member of this forum. Hope he stays!

              Came home from a trip and had exactly a few minutes to get warm with the Heritage Tour Jacket, before I left to see a football match.

                    All right, Dirk! Glad to see the tour jacket landed safely @Aetas. Looking forward to seeing further adventures.

                    For what it’s worth, @Heavy_blue anybody talking shit is just being a dick. I was glad to get a little glimpse into your life, and that’s what a world tour is all about!

                          This linked Yellow Wall is something special. Stands behind the goal hold over 20.000 supporter. DM when you come around @IrishHeart

                          Harry Kane was the game-changer @endo @Tago-Mago . Looks like this song needs an English translation soon 😆.

                              @Aetas thanks for linking the other videos. No sport can generate an atmosphere like a football crowd in full voice.

                              The atmosphere at most English football grounds deteriorated with the introduction of seating. Best I’ve witnessed in the UK is Celtic Park in Glasgow on a European night or against Rangers.

                              I’ll definitely let you know if I get to Dortmund 👍

                                There's not much in the world
                                You could abide by
                                Some says it's love
                                Maybe that's true
                                And there's always God
                                If there's nobody else
                                Others believe in nothing
                                Life has made them hard

                                So much can happen
                                So much can happen
                                There's just one thing I know for sure:
                                Never in my life I would go to Bayern Munich

                                I mean, if I was 20
                                And supertalented
                                And Real Madrid had already asked me
                                And the boys from Manchester
                                And I had also played for Germany already
                                And were mentally fit
                                And Uli Hoeneß would come
                                To ask me

                                I would not open the door
                                Because for me it's out of questions
                                To spoil my character
                                Among people like the Bavarians

                                I just wanted to clarify this
                                So that we are on the same level
                                I have nothing against Munich
                                I just would never go to Bavaria

                                Is something like his really necessary?
                                Isn't life much too beautiful?
                                To throw oneself away
                                And go to the FC Bayern

                                So much can happen
                                So much can happen
                                No matter how hard my fate was
                                I would never go to the FC Bayern Munich

                                What kind of parents do you need to have
                                To be so spoiled
                                To sign a contract
                                With this sh*t team?

                                We would never go to the FC Bayern Munich!
                                Never go the Bavarians!
                                We would never go to the FC Bayern Munich!
                                Never go the Bavarians!

                                    This is my fourth Tour and I asked myself … why am I doing this to myself again? There is a simple answer: I still enjoy the forum, the people and the friendly atmosphere!

                                    What drew me in here?
                                    -Two Patagonia shirts I bought in the early 90‘ and then disappeared ten years later.
                                    -Two selvedge Edwin jeans made in Japan, received as a gift from my cousin in the mid 90‘. One of them still existing.
                                    -When I found out about Lightning and an addicted Japanese scene with passion for handmade things.
                                    …
                                    Hopefully I can find the time to tell some of this storylines.

                                    Tour jacket paired today my first IH shirt, the IHSH-13.
                                    Bought, because this lost Patagonia shirts where always in my mind and this 10oz selvedge chambray was the first matching a decade later.

                                      Is it just a passion? Looks like two lost shirts developed something 😅.

                                        @Aetas did you have one of these before getting the tour jacket, or did you grab another to pre-emptively fill the inevitable void they'll be in your soul when you have to move it on to the next participant?

                                          When the idea of a new World Tour came up in the Triangle of Terror Tour in April 23 it was a no brainer, to buy this IHJ-120 and keep it unworn and hidden till the beginning of my leg.
                                          It was always painful, to send the od Lefty and the Mad Red away after my legs 😁.

                                            Inspecting the collar this sentence popped up:

                                            The loop hanger works perfectly. Wish we’ll have more items with this. But Haraki dislikes them for shirts…

                                            Working as a teacher needs a refuge place sometimes. Here is ours.
                                            Named ‚CaveDigitale‘ with the key role as a media café. Stuffed with technical equipment to play and softdrinks, it is well-visited.
