Ask Giles and/or Alex Anything

100% agree - it's been far too long. But in the early days of the Forum they sold really well, then as the forum transitioned from a small group of like-minded friends to a much larger thing, sales fell away....

Why do men have nipples?

Nipples respond to sexual stimulation in both sexes.

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot nipple formation in embryos starts before sex determination

[RobeOfTheMagi]

@giles Looking great man!

@Tago-Mago damn you were just a bit quicker to respond!

Giles, I love the Scarpa Mojito with paired with good denim! Wore the same Scarpas a lot a few years ago.

@Kasi said in Ask Giles Anything:

Need to bring members t-shirts back in 7.5oz

I happened to buy a few older tshirts from @Clint_D and the 2011 indigo dyed forum member shirt was in there. Blew my mind! I would love a new one, that would be so rad. I love the printed 7.5oz shirts so much.

[AdamJ]

I've got one!

[goosehd]

@AdamJ I'm glad you included the picture as I thought you were talking about nipples...

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd I'd be concerned if @AdamJ only had 1 nipple...

[seawolf]

@Oaktavia I have an indigo version from 2012, if you're interested.

[popvulture]

Man I’d love one of those shirts. We should do new ones.

[goosehd]

@seawolf @Oaktavia PM please if the discussion continues. Thank you!

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago I thought that @AdamJ might have been the inspiration for this story:

[Oaktavia]

@AdamJ Oh shoot I actually have the 2012 one that looks nearly the same. The red font differentiates it from the 2011 one. Still rad as hell, I love me an indigo dyed tshirt.

@Alex
Member t-shirt 7.5oz
Please can you make these happen again.

[Oaktavia]

Or a Brotherhood of Bib 7.5oz shirt. Dude!

I asked this question in the wrong place, probably, so I didn't get an answer because of it.
First
I think there's too much space between size 36 and 38, for me personally it is very difficult to find suitable jeans and I'm sure I'm not the only one who has this problem. It is clear to me that this is not common, but I just wanted to mention it as an idea or as a comment for a possible new size 37.
Second
I'm missing a measurment hip in size chart. I think it's very useful in combination with Waist and thigh. In this way, we can determine much more easily whether our pants are too wide in the upper part.

Yes!

[goosehd]

@Hajduk-0 Sorry about that, but I read your other statement as more of an observation instead of a question. I believe this question was asked once before and I’m working through the old posts to find an answer for you.

Maybe @Giles can chime in when he has a chance or one of the IHUK crew.

[goosehd]

@Hajduk-0 Here is the previous answer for the hip question:

“Nor will we be adding a hip measurement…In 10 years we've been asked for it 3 times. Plus the way we run the compare sizing option, we try and make sure that the same measurements are on the same line so that the compare is easy. If we add hip measurements to new products going forward, we screw that up, so the only alternative is to go back and measure every size/model and update all the measurement tables. 1) we do not have time 2) we do not have all the size/models of extinct items to compare.

And guess what? If you email us and ask for the hip measurements of a few pairs of jeans, we'll happily provide those.”

[Giles]

The 37" question is one for @Alex . It will increase our investment in stock, I'm pretty sure very few of the retailers will pick 37's up (not many take 35's) and I am not altogether sure whether we will substantially increase sales...
