I saw a post about that over on SuFu in the shoes & boots thread.  If I remember correctly, the Alden store in Manhattan sells those laces for around $5 plus shipping.  Don't remember seeing any sources outside the US, though.

Recommendation on a camera bag for DSLR?

Small is preferred, but needs enough room to carry the camera body and two lenses.

Thanks in advance.

Crumpler must be worth a look I think, but I only speak from messenger bag experience.

[Beatle]

well, small does not always make sense..sooner or later you might decide to bring a flash or a couple of battery packs plus grip..

I've used this one for a long time, very light but durable, fits everything I need ..(2 lenses, flash, battery clips plus charger)

you will find them on ebay

I have a small Domke bag and like it. Doesn't scream "camera bag"! Mine's like this but black and not waxed: LINK

Artisan and Artist are made in Japan and very nice, LINK

I was wondering if anyone knows anything about the Japanese brand Back Street Crawler Jeans? I had a rather nice selvedge pair bought in London in the late 90's, but I have never heard of them since - and searches on the intarwebs only brings up a few results from SuFu without any information. Unfortunately, they're long gone, so I don't have any pictures, but they were exactly like these:

Update regarding the nasty forum bugs:

All those bugs should be fixed in a new version of our forum software, which has just been released.

Once all the necessary addons and features have been ported to this new version, we will perform the upgrade and all those nuisances should be a thing of the past.

Somewhat OT question @ people in the USA (or elsewhere):

Can you buy plasters (bandaids) in different colours, i.e.: so that all ethnicities can have quasi flesh tone dressings?
