2010 Edition - Iron Heart & Triple Works edition WAYWT

Hello everyone. 3-Day weekend ! Hurrah ! Here I am in my Iron Heart 634S…I'm gonna rock these for awhile. My Sugar Cane Oki experience in the early summer have made me re-discover love for em. I bought these at Self Edge SF in 2006 -- a few months after the store opened. Derek convinced me to get these. 301S weren't even an option then. My Mum (who has a sharp tongue and doesn't hold back brutal honesty) prefers these MUCH to the 301S on me. She doesn't find the 301S disgusting on me, but she prefers the 634S by a landslide. Part of it, I think, is that she thinks I'm "too old" for 301S...and perhaps she's right. After all, I'm 46 years old ! A "young 46" who is in good shape, sure, but still -- I'll be 47 next year ! Those on IHForum of Asian ethnicity can probably relate....our Mums are cut of the same cloth. No harm done, I love my Mum lots...

What I'm wearing:
American Apparel Unisex T- XS
IH 634S from SESF (W30/L32) - 3 washes/tumble dry
Softwalk Sandals from zappos (6.5 N) -
Man those 634s'es look awesome Shubz!.. Didn't even know you had a pair… I also prefer this fit on you over the 301s - although the 301s looks a lot better on women imo... Well, women and Simon...
You also don't seem to have backstitches?.. How come?.. Same story as mine (made during Levi's trial)?..Same old... ALD, 634s w/ IHB-01, no shoes (hey it's Saturday maaaannnn!):

Seul – thanks for your opinion ! Simon-LA rocks 301S best, I know...his being tall and lean helps. There's another Asian dude -- evilcrayon -- I met him in person at the SESF Shorts Cut-Off Party -- and he looks awesome in them too. But like Simon, he's tall and skinny. I think tall, skinny people (dudes or dudettes) rock IH 301S best. I've seen stever (on this forum) rockin' 301S and I think they look awesome on him. Tall and Skinny. That's the key. That said, others can get away with wearing them well, as long as they are at least slender.
As for me, I'm gonna keep wearin' my 301S…cuz I do love them. Maybe I'll decide to finally start acting my age when I turn 50.

An amateur animallover was observing these 2 gorgeous little buggers feasting on some breadcrumbs:

It appears to be the elusive LAUNDRYMAN, protecting some sheets and towels whilst drying… He appears to be protected by a thick black kevlar like skin on the upper body (IH-SH8) whilst his legs have a softer feel to it - probably to enable him to run quickly from one basket of laundry to another (634s)...
Whether this picture is authentic, who will say... Experts are looking into it as we speak!..

Totally Simon-LA…the silhouette situation is exactly why my old-fashioned Mum doesn't prefer me to wear the IH 301 at my age. But...I take awesome care of myself – age is just a number, honestly. My Mum doesn't get that. Madonna and Jennifer Anniston wear skinny, tight jeans...so why can't I ?
Speaking of taking care of myself, I'm about to jet on a 6-mile hilly Oakland run...talk to ya later ! -
Relaxing at my friend's ranch this weekend.
