If you mean this:

We did:

But when Levi's got heavy handed a few years ago, one of the things that we (the same as a number of other Japanese jeans companies) had to do was give up was "any image of a pair of jeans being pulled apart by 2 animate or inanimate objects".  We complied, some did not.

Our view now, is that even if Levi's stopped their strong arming tactics, we have no desire to even parody them.

thats exactly what i am talking about. looks real good

i heard about the arcs but didn't know they came down on these too, i guess "imitation is the greatest form of flattery" did not apply here. Especially when its of a higher standard then they're producing…...

out of curiosity is there any other patch designs for IH?

Does anyone have any 1st hand experience with these bags/rucks? Seems like a brand with an IH mentality/approach, if you will… http://www.contextclothing.com/brand.php?brand=Goruck

Never had any experience with this company. I occassionally use a military style pack

TAD's stuff is top notch, built to last, and if you manage to break it, they'll replace it for free

I've also heard that the guys at TAD are IH fans

Heard about Goruck when I was looking into a race, the Tough Mudder in Austin.  Basically, to make the race more "fun" the guys in the Goruck team fill their packs with bricks beer and run the race.  Looks like they had a good time.

I'm guessing their packs are pretty tough, and they do offer a lifetime guarantee and even a repair service for packs that have been roughed up a bit too harshly.
