    @les-l can't go wrong either way. I'd do OD but that's just me

      @Mizmazzle It has happened to me on my 666s but that is the wrong shape for my body, being a bigger lad, it didn't give me much room on the top block to get things in and out of my front pockets and having to shove my hands into the pockets which is what would probably cause it to rip over time, I have a pair of 888 and 1955's and it hasn't happen to them yet (1 and 2 years old), however because it used to happen to me all the time for me on my Nudie's when I worked there I do limit what I put in my front pockets, ( I now have the fear) I never stick my keys in the front pocket nor my wallet, as keys are the worst for causing rips and tears, I only put them in my back pocket or attach it to my belt loop.

        @JoshC Well, let the mystery continue then....most of my cuts are the 888...and I'm a pretty slim dude so not alot of tension in that area...

        @popvulture haha....that's a whole another random question topic....why does the shrug emoji always pop up as a lady when in the menu it's a man???

        In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

            @Mizmazzle I'll regularly destroy pockets, but as a direct result of either the phone or keys.
            In my case it seems like phone use eventually rips it at the upper seam (like pictured), while the keys tend to grind a hole in the bottom of the pocket bag.

            A bit of a mystery in your case, haha.

            EDIT: I'll add that this isn't specific to IH jeans for me, happens to all jeans. In fact, Iron Heart pockets hold up better than most imo.

              @JunkPants it’s odd for sure. I think putting my hands in my pockets a lot has something to do with it. But like I said, since getting this new GAH ring, I can’t slide my hand in anymore so it not doing that. Maybe over time with less hand in pocket time this will resolve. Sure seems like putting my unringed hand shouldn’t rip apart a pocket bag though.

                @Mizmazzle you doing a lot of sassy walks?
                That could put stress on the pocket bags

                        @borosillykid went with a 321 overdyed. To start with denim shirting i decided on the lighter weights.

                          @les-l nice! Overdyed is the way to go, unless your looking for a strictly dress non fade black od has my heart. Glad to hear you found the one you like.

                            What led to the chalk stripe being released in both the western and the work cuts?

                              Alex talks a little about the reason in the video. For some reason it's not copying the time stamp, the relevant part starts around 47:30

                                  Can a legacy UHF workshirt be sent to Gosport to have its buttons updated to the new 15mm ones? If so, what would cost be?

                                    @68degreesorless It might just be easier and more cost effective if you can buy some 15mm buttons and either sew them on yourself or have a tailor do it for you. There’s a button district in the garment center in NYC and at least one of the stores has a fairly comprehensive website. Don’t know if you’re in the US or not. Maybe this helps.

                                      We don't hold stock of the new work shirt buttons at the moment, I am afraid

                                        Sleeve alteration on N1 Jacket?

                                        Has anyone had the sleeve length of their N1 jacket altered (in the UK). In an ideal world I’d like the sleeve to be slightly shorter. However I would only consider having this done if I knew they had the skills/experience to undertake this type of work, as it’s a complex sleeve. I may just chose to leave as is, but I thought I’d throw the question out there.
