    When I discuss some stuff with H, he can't even remember….....And some of that early stuff......Well tops never came in anything larger than XL.  Hardly any of the early IHSH made it out of Japan......Rocking-horse shit....

      @neph93:

      I'm a total boot noob! I wear Adi Dasslers finest three stripes whenever I can, then I've got an old pair of generic steel caps for working in and an old pair of donated hunting boots for hiking/cabin trips and so on. The only casual boots I've got is a pair of black, lined Clarks that cost about $200 that I've had for autumn/winter use the last three years.

      I'm painfully aware that I need to up my boot game. I'm not quite ready to splurge $800 on some of the badassery available here. I'm just not sure I love boots that much (yet). So I'm thinking something more "entry level" that cost around $400, like Red Wings or Wolverines. They need to be able to tackle rain and not be useless in ice and snow. Lining isn't a must as woollen socks are boss.

      Here's the question: Based on the above, which boots should I buy?

      Definitely consider Oak Street Bootmakers if you're heading down the $400 path. I have a pair of rough out service boots that look and fit beautifully.

          Thanks for the tip.

          I ended up taking the golden middle way and got a pair of Viberg/IH collabs 2nd hand from a forum member. The IHVB-03CT. They happened to be the perfect size and the best boot for the conditions where I live. Synchronicity is a sexy mofo.

                The IH ones are cushioned and heavy, but I think the L&L are the warmest 🙂

                  I'd agree…..

                      Need jeans & work pants, made well with a tapper & interesting fabrics. Think I'm a  true 33 at the moment but my inseam is about 30.

                      Any ideas???

                        ^Same but 33" inseam. I like a double roll. Also: need a heavy duty olive (drab) coloured hoodie… W+H had one on Gilt but it's imported. I'll do imported if it's 2nd hand though.

                        But let's help Mike first - if there's any hope left...

                          633s-ii for the jeans? I really love the 633 cut. Slim, but roomy enough to be comfortable and that indigo-indigo looks awesome.

                              My guess would be IHM-10 in black.

                                Thanks, I didn't see the buttonholes in the wind flap and thought this might be another jacket without buttons.

                                    Where can I find Patagonia gear somewhat cheaper online? Preferably in the EU. Looking to buy a Patagonia Stormfront Roll Top Pack, and they don't seem too easy to come by.

                                        Thanks! Unfortunately they didn't stock the bag.

                                          If I wanted to hem my jeans to 32", at what length should I cut to account for the folds??

                                          I'm looking for the answer now, just thought I'd ask in case anyone knows real quick…
