Smartwool socks, like most of the gear we wear, has a big cost upfront but will last a long time.

Does anybody know what this shirt is? I looked through the Extinct section of the shop and didn't see it. It's entirely possible that I just glazed right over it, but it has certainly piqued my interest.

I see quilt and I think 17 http://www.ironheart.co.uk/extinct/ihsh-17.html

But that looks like a different shirt… Probably forgetting about something here...

Google Image is your friend…

That's actually where I found the image I've just never seen that shirt before. I like it!

[seawolf]

Good eye Eli! I think you're right about it being the 17.

^ he definitely is! even if it's not easy to say so

Gives me an idea… Quilted version of the 65...  Red, natty, khaki and grey/blue

[mclaincausey]

I've said it once before, but a natty/ecru Western with persimmon stitching would be the tits.

[Chris]

I'd rather see that in a workshirt, but that's just because I don't ever wear westerns.  Maybe dye the buttons persimmon, or make them enameled in that color for a workshirt.

[seawolf]

Well then… this is getting awesome!

I'd really like to see a quilted flannel. Workshirt or Western. With the persimmon thread AND the buttons (or snaps). Too much?

Tsk tsk tsk… "Texan" huh?

what pieces do people consider iron heart OG?

[Seul]

For me: 20 and 16… I'm not big on the "OG" flannels...

Whats the dealio with shipping beer to the States from the UK and not getting anyone in hot water? No major bootlegging, just a couple of beers to a buddy.

[seawolf]

I've shipped beer within the states before to enter a homebrew competition, and labeled it "yeast samples" which is totally legal.  Otherwise, I think the only way around it would be to just label it "Candy and Snacks" and throw caution to the wind.

Why do you ask?

Gav-

They've reduced the number of body cavity searches at JFK Airport, so you should be fine.  Just don't duck-walk through customs and give yourself away.

Seul shipped a beer to me once and he simply put "single bottle of beer" on the customs form.  Made it through with no problem.

It was good beer, too.

[Seul]

Yeah never in my mind did it occur that anyone at customs might have an issue with some bald eejit Belgian  importing alcohol into his country but hey… Made it...

About that, Chris... This is for Megadome too... The bottle I sent you, Houston, was from the first lot I ordered for work... The second lot, I bought two bottles of that myself... Opened one: it had expired... Foul tasting stuff... Checked the (barely visible) exp date: May 2012 (I ordered this lot 12/2012 or even 01/2013)... Luckily, besides me having bought two bottles, we had only sold one other... Three on the shelf left... Had to bin 'm... So Chris got lucky I shipped him a good one, and Mega was lucky I decided to ship him something élse...

The End.
