      I've been watching the Self-Edge sale on SuFu for several days now, and all the SR's are finally gone.  All that's left in terms of heavyweight denim are the 1103EX's, so I was interested to know if they are comparable in terms of quality and reputation?

        I'll let you know ASAP, I have owned the SRs and I have the 1103ex inbound

          It's okay to wash IH flannels with regular clothes and soap/detergent right? 😛

                just looked above my post & i agree with jaco. it is fine to wash your flannels.  i will admit i do baby mine & wash delicate & all that jazz, but they have never come out an worse for wear when my wife washes them on a regular setting with regular soap.

                now my black armor you will not be getting in any washing machines  😠

                  you talking about jeans or 08 shirt?
                  I machine wash my 9301s
                  but not the 08
                  that just gets the horsehair brush

                    i am scared to death to machine wash the following items:

                    08ss
                    9301
                    9527J
                    9526V

                    not saying you can't, but I AM SCARED TO DEATH to ruin them in my washing machine  😞

                      monday - i think ur washer has that option where you can pick the load size..just throw in the 08 , wash warm and pick large , so you have more water than needed and do a no spin , should be fine…

                      We can do anything

                        Fuck that - I'm never washing my IHSH-08. After what happened last time… I'm sure hectic feels the same  ::)

                              any reasonable alternatives?
                              don't want to spend much more than the HM costs which is around $800.

                                With the IH-MW (ox blood) which IH-WL will look better tan or black?

                                  I'd say tan.

                                    Me too, because the tan will darken with use…...

                                            Don't have recommendations for alternatives, but I would stay away from the Aeron, unless you've spent several hours sitting in one and know you like it.  I used one for a couple of months at work and could never get it adjusted into a comfortable setting.  Soured me on them considerably.  They look cool, though.
