Has happened to me only 3 times in NYC and every time I talked yo the guy. All very nice. It’s been awhile tho.

I've seen one guy in Austin with what looked like some 634s, and saw a guy and girl (who seemed quite obviously a couple) walking down the street in LA, both wearing jeans, one possibly 21oz and the other 18oz indigo/indigo. Drawn together by denim? Haha…

Other than that, nobody else in the wild!

I used to see IH in the wild sometimes in SF.  One time, I waited on a guy at my restaurant here who had on IH jeans.  He was going to some sort of tech conference in Charlotte, and had heard that Asheville was nice to visit.

Great answer you mind reader.

@bryaneidins70:

Great answer you mind reader.

It was a "great idea", and we all know how those typically turn out…..

Likely, my disdain for the process and results is due to my less-than-stellar adherence to methods/protocol, and habitual corner cutting... because there are some great examples of DIY waxed jackets out there (Modern and vintage), but mine DID NOT turn out like that, lol! I ended up, after HOURS spent waxing over 2-3 days, just putting it in the clothes dryer on HIGH and melting out the wax. It was splotchy/patchy, greasy, and it held on to dog hair and lint more than a wool sweater, which particularly sucks, because it's lined with alpaca.....

oh damn

wash wash wash ?

[UnTucked]

I just put it in the clothes dryer with a few old towels, and let all of the wax melt out of it/absorb in to the fabric.

When it rains a bit, the water beads up on it so it did keep some of the water proofing that I was going for

Reminds of how I screwed up a pair of suede 70s Chucks by applying Sno-Seal on them ::).

Is UHR done for good in it current iteration? Or can it still be made? I'd love some sort of jacket made from the most current UHR.

Looking for some Chelsea Boots to dress up my jeans for work.

I know the thin, pointy ok toes are coming back, but I’m 220#, and beatle boots don’t cut it for me.

Looking for a slightly tall stacked heal, black rough out/suede leather, and a fairly beefy overall look, but still sleek.

Oh, and under $300…

Anyone know where I might be able to find such things?

Thanks!

Can anyone guesstimate shipping costs for
Pair of jeans from the east coast to
France?

@Appfaff Do Blundstones work for you. They have some dressier ones,which might fit the bill at the price point you’re looking for.

[mikebarhoot]

$40-50

[Matty123]

Thanks @mikebarhoot

[Appfaff]

Thanks @Jett129 - looking for something with a more western or Cuban style heel, but Blundstones are definitely an option!

Maybe more like these, but for legs with some meat on them (and the dollar store version lol)
