      Tomatoes can work for the skunk smell on a dog. Just smash them up and rub around. I've never tried it on clothes though.

        I suspect anyone who has stayed with us will have been to the New Bengal…It's our second home.....

        It was a very nice place.

              301S-14

              @Giles @Alex or anybody else on the IH crew: I was looking at the 301S and 633S-OD via the Self Edge site and noticed the arc stitching is positioned differently on the back pockets of each model. The 301S has inverted arcs so they appear symmetrical and the 633S-OD does not. Any ideas why?

                Appfaff flagged this recently. It’s a Selvedge/Kiya thing. All 301 iterations have the inverted arcs.

                  If I sell something and someone is paying me in a currency different than the one that is linked to my Paypal account, will Paypal automatically convert it to the currency in my account?  For example, if my CAD account is linked to Paypal and someone is paying me in USD, will Paypal convert the USD to CAD and deposit it into my CAD account?

                    Yes, if you receive a USD PP payment and want to transfer it into your linked CAD bank account, PP will convert it. But there might be a currencies conversion fee (exchange rate in favor of PP, percentage of the transfered amount fee)

                      Is bowing ubiquitous in Japan, or is it a mainstream/conservative custom? Specifically do the IH.jp crew bow given the association with the biker subculture?

                        I still have a bowing habit… And Okinawa is far less structured in reference to many customs than mainland Japan.

                        And, I don't want to answer on behalf of anyone, but I assume they bow.

                        Bikers, yakuza, or any other flavor of badass... Pretty much doesn't matter. If you don't bow (And use the proper honorific when speaking) to someone that ranks higher than you on the social ladder (Age, position/title, cooler than you), you KNOW you are intentionally being rude.

                            Cheers guys. Was curious about how it worked after meeting the crew in September and following some of them on IG.

                              It is also not uncommon for Japanese folks to not look you in the eye when speaking to you. Not everyone does this mind you but I've known quite a few people, usually men, that did. To Westerners this could be perceived as rude but to them it can be a sign of rudeness. Nowadays I think it depends on the person. Ymmv

                                ^ sounds like heaven. Brits aren’t big on that either. Norwegians are however.

                                  Maybe a stupid question and has been answered before, but what is the system behind the numbering of IH products?
                                  I know the meaning of the letters is like IHSH for shirts or IHJ for non-denim jackets, but what is the significance of the numbers at the end e.g. IHSH-180?

                                      Ah, I understand. That's what I thought first, but I wasn't sure if it isn't maybe some kind of a code for (style, fabric, pattern etc.). Now i know.

                                        It is a code for style/pattern for the jeans.

                                          Why would one prefer a half western over a full/normal/real western?

                                            Personally I don’t prefer them, but I do enjoy my 179 being a little different. It’s good to have an alternative to westerns and work shirts.
