@endo it was 2008 and my memories of sober events from that time are questionable, not to mention the ones where I blacked out.

Was a type 2 vest ever made?

@daniel-s-latham , none that I recall...

Can damaged chain stitch runoffs simply be cut off, or is it better for the integrity of the shirt stitching to knot them before cutting?

[Graham]

They sure can, they are finished at the hem so you can snip them up to that point with no repercussions.

That white horizontal stitch is going to stop it going any further:

Thanks @Graham - of course, it’s clear from your picture now!

I wonder if Musk and Bezos are congenial to each other, or if they argue over who has the biggest rockets, the harder thrust, and who’s rocket prematurely detonates first…

I’ll bet that all three of those guys just brag about their latest super yacht to each other, or the equivalent. Like the dick measuring contest that many guys get into when they hang out with each other, only on a different scale.

In a world full of Elons we need more Luigis.

looking at the cut comparison tool it seems the 777 is the slimmest cut, however, looking at the measurements i would think the 555 would be the slimmest cut. Is this tool using the same tag size for the comparisons. Also the 666 seems slimmer in the thigh, but the tool shows the 777 to be slimmer in the thigh.

@tody I would never condone violence as a way of… fuck I can’t even make it through the entire sentence without laughing.

Yes, otherwise it would not be a comparison

Take a look at the compare function:

Burning denim fuzz?

I love that clean look and feel of a new pair of jeans when they are smooth and the weft really pops. We've all experienced the fuzz that appears as they begin to break in. I was sitting on my porch the other day, relaxing with a lighter in hand (make your own conclusions there), and out of curiosity I started burning the fuzz off a pair of 21oz 634s that have a little over a month of wear. It did return the clean look, and made the white weft pop like when they were new.

I was curious if anyone else has done this? If so, did it affect the jeans in any other way such as fades or durability? I'm tempted to break in two pair simultaneously, burning the fuzz on one pair every couple of weeks, and seeing how differently they develop.

I feel like there used to be a calendar of potential restock dates, but I could be wrong. Does this exist? None of my pants fit after sorting some medical issues last year and I’ll be needing to upsize.
