      All fair points. My knowledge of denim is probably pretty limited compared to most of the people on here. My whole life, up until taking the IH plunge with the XHS a couple months ago, was mall jeans and two or three pairs of N&Fs (none of the super out-there stuff they've done, just their LHT, a red-core selvedge and one lighter indigo), so my experience thus far really is that jeans from the same company usually feel the same. The amount of skill and effort that goes into making this stuff will never cease to amaze me.

      As an aside, I don't know if I'll ever get used to the idea that the guy in charge of the entire EU/US IH operation is just… on here, randomly answering questions and posting about chicken sashimi. It's a much less polished vibe than the typical brand's online presence, and I mean that in a good way.

      @neph93:

      I apologise if you felt patronised. That was not my intention. I’ve been geeking out on Iron Heart denim and forget what it was like to be a newbie.

      Every denim IH have made (and I’ve tried most of them), have many varied qualities and characteristics. Weight is only one of them.

      You're good, chief. I didn't take any offense. Besides, lord knows I've probably come off in ways I didn't mean to when talking to new converts about things I'm passionate about.

          …@jestocost I remember being rather stunned about which you speak concerning the 'real and authentic' presence of the ownership here on the forums. 😎

          ...Giles had me by the short hairs, now Alex is tugging! :o I doubt I'll buy clothing from another company from here on out! 😉

            @Jestocost:

            In my defense, I feel like most laymen would assume that denim sold by the same company would be woven with roughly the same tightness.

            Good point, but only if the company wanted a very one-dimensional offering.  We offer a load of different types of denim and they all have to be woven in a way that is specific to that type of denim.

            Giles, you also use more than one denim mill (at least I assume this). So this alone would also speak against a "uniform" denim characteristic, right?

                  I looked at your older posts, are you looking for a size 31?
                  IH Germany has them in stock. I have a pair, they are incredible.

                    Cake or Pie?  (wife's birthday is today, she want's cake, kids want cake, I hate cake….)  What do you guys prefer? ...this could have went in the stupid questions thread also... 🙂

                      Dude,It’s your wife’s birthday should there really be any discussion as to what you have to get today. Did you not read the Wife’s Birthday chapter in Marriage 101? Having said that I like pies that are kind of cakey,like Apple Crumb Pie.

                          Agreed. Conversely, I have a friend who hates pie, which is an opinion I find equally incredulous. I'm an equal dessert offender. It must all be consumed.

                                Both dummies.  Or better yet.  Cupcakes and pie.  That way you don’t have a big cake sitting around and you can grab a cupcake when you run out of pie.

                                        Read through this list and tell me you're not craving a pie by the end of it:

                                        Pumpkin
                                        Cherry (with or without Ice Cream)
                                        Apple (with or without Ice Cream or a slice of Cheddar)
                                        Rhubarb
                                        Blueberry

                                        Combos of the above

                                        or….

                                        meh...Cake  😃
