There's no Such Thing as a Stupid Question
-
Ok, I just wanted to see if there was a place. It's not ritzy or expensive and of course there would be a forum member discount. Thanks though guys.

Hawaii you say…...tell me more

Haha… as soon as you tell yourself things like "I need a reserve pair", or "it's good to mix up styles" you're doomed anyway. When you end up looking at the website and buying a pair "because you don't have anything in that denim" then you're officially a fiend
Thankfully, most pair of IH bottoms don't fit me.
I am now among those forum members who are relieved because a certain pair won't fit them, thus saving them from the temptation and guilt of buying it.Don't count yourself out!
If there is a size that looks "close" to what you need on the size charts, the IH crew would be totally willing to find you say, the sz. 33 with the largest thigh measurement. And still, if you try that and it doesn't work for you, the "no quibbles" return policy, and The Marketplace are good friends!!!

Why does moving suck so much?

Why does moving suck so much?
Packing, physical exertion, unpacking. On the upside you get to Throw out so much shit you don't need or want anymore. On the suck side it involves either closing fees on a Mortgage or first and last months rent plus deposit.

Hey guys, I have a question. my wife and I own two vacation rental properties in Hawaii. One is on Kauai and one is on Maui. Where on this forum is the proper place to post this info for members to see? Mahalo and Aloha
I was thinking about this last night, we could start a rental property thread in "Buying and Selling"…...

Great idea

That'd be awesome @Giles. Thanks

Sounds promising.

It does, doesn't it. It's a pretty great idea when you think about it given the global spread of forum members.
That's what I was thinking too. We're all over the globe and I know I like to travel. I'm sure there are others on this forum who like to travel or have properties available for rent. This is great.

Does any one have any experience with Gutermann indigo polycotton thread? I'm looking to do some
Minor denim repairs and want to use an indigo thread as I don't have access to the OG constructional stitching. I figure the next best thing to the yellow thread that is used would be an indigo thread that hides my lack luster stitching skills -
It's strong and good. But a bit thin. You really need a "36", this is what we use in UK.

If you are buying something from us soon, we can pop some in the parcel.

Thank you Giles. I might just have to now… what color would you recommend for the 634s?
-
It's the yellow stitching that wore away. But I imagine blue is what I need so my lackluster stitch work will be "hidden."

@manufc10 (and everyone else) are right in saying that it is a hobby, and hence not logical or rational.
But the thing about Iron Heart products is that they get better with age. If I am buying a new jeans without abusing the previous one, I am not doing justice to either of those pair of jeans.
Finally, I am also deep down the rabbit hole and possibly no better than you. It is just that I don't have enough money, lol~

@Sreeni I started out with one pair of 634 XHS and only wore those for a year, 2.5 years later, they are my favorite pair….That being said, I have also acquired the following IH denim:
BB XHS
634 21oz
633 UHR (@neph93, I wear these in the summer...you Norwegians need to toughen up a bit)Not a huge collection by any means, but @UnTucked said it best "Fashion/style is a hobby for many of us here, and that alone can be the justification." I have been interested in different fits and denims. Plus, I have found some of the denim is better suited for situations than others. I wear my 633 UHR with sandals and tshirts in the summer, I wear my BB XHS with boots in more "dressy" occasions, I wear my 634 21oz around the house doing chores and in situations where they may encounter getting more roughed up than I would like my other pairs to get.
Its all a matter of personal taste and everyone's is different. Whats awesome here is we have a market place where you can sometimes pick up a pair you want to experiment with for a price that is typically less than the full purchase cost. And then if they don't work like you wanted, you can usually turn around and re-sell them. I have done that with lots of IH items.
@Dstauffer How many times did you have to repair the XHS? I prefer to wear my natural indigo jeans (TW634-NSP) for places which might not be very comfortable with excessive fades.
It is a good thing that there aren't many jeans that fit my thigh for my waist size of 30. Well, that is until the 888 jeans are launched.
