    G-Star, before G Star, and 5 times the price. It was all the rage 5 or 6 years ago, but I wouldn't touch it these days, at that price point there is an abundance of far superior denim, including the dudes who run this very forum.

      @Mega, I think the real random questions is why do you have that? (And I asked the question before googling the cult; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aum_Shinrikyo )

        I read Underground by Murukami some years ago, which is a book of pure testimony from victims and survivors of the Tokyo Gas Attack, I then went on to extensively research Aum as a cultural phenomenon, and reading a little of their own literature gave the research balance.

          oh right, how'd it come across reading? From looking @ the covers it reads way off to someone who's spent time practicing (that's what got me googling).

            It reads like it was written by a delusional egomaniac, who wants to talk more about how awesome he is at yoga, than how awesome yoga is.

                  Placed an order with HW Carter and Sons mid week for a few Merz henleys.. I have heard not a peep since Wednesday night with an email stating my border went through and is awaiting confirmation. Anyone have experience with this company? Is this slow service normal?

                        Is it possible to have built up a gluten intolerance?  I inadvertently ate something that had soy sauce in it (wheat, soy) and now for the last 2 days have been sick as a dog headaches, horrible gas, can't stop going to the bathroom.

                          It could be your bodies reaction to ingesting something it is no longer used to. When I finished the Whole 30 I had some very strong allergic reactions to things which previously I eat without incident, I just looked on it as my bodies way of telling me that I should leave certain things alone, mainly processed take away food.

                              why did the ebay and items discovered get unstickied in the sale section?

                                Nice pick up. It was done to allow more active threads on the front page, as apposed to a page of just stickies. Buying & Selling / Bumping Rules were also merged for the same reason, FYI.

                                (Items discovered was unstickied by mistake,  Deals, SALES, Codes, and Bargains… has been de-stickied correctly)

                                    Yeah, slimming down on the stickies is a good idea…  🙂

                                      How does the Iron Heart compare with Real Mccoy's in terms of weight? The Real Mccoy's sweat fabric is around 12 oz per square yard.

                                        junglo is talking about our current loopwheeled sweatshirt fabric….

                                          @junglo:

                                          I assume you talking about the JoeMcCoy Ballpark heavyweight sweater? There is the RMC Military sweater too which is around 10 oz, dont know which is better to "compare" to the IHSW-06 and how much oz IHSW-06 is..only owning some Ballpark stuff.

                                          Ballpark fits tts imho, RMC Military size one up as its slimmer and shorter.

                                          Ballpark is thick and heavy, soft inside, i wear mine even now at around 25 degrees Celsius. A nice crewneck sweater regardless from where is such a great piece to have

                                          Cheers,
                                          David
