      For me: comfort > fashion. In IH world, you often receive the best of both worlds (not to mention garment quality).

        I've noticed a couple of IH listings on ebay in recent weeks where the seller removed the arcs with a seam ripper. Seems kinda pointless to buy jeans with arcs only to remove them afterwards and then try to sell them at an even greater loss. amirite?

          I seen that enough before to know «it’s a thing» in some sections of the denim community, but I don’t claim to understand it.  Is it because people don’t like branding?

            Good question. There's a pair of 777-14oz denim on ebay right now and the seller removed the arcs and the patch. The seller clearly doesn't like branding. Still pretty strange though.

              I'm not a big fan of arcs, myself… Not sure I'd bother removing them, though.

                It doesn’t get old. While I love The Sopranos, The Wire is the benchmark for truly excellent television.

                I felt the same, the the Sap's were it…...then came The Wire....Mc Nutty.....

                    2nd season when Pelecanos was writing for them. Want to read a good book-anything by George Pelecanos.

                        Sons of Anarchy is my TV gold standard. I guess no surprise there.

                              Season 2 is amazing. Tbh though everytime I think about this I just end up thinking about what’s great about all the series. Even the somewhat maligned S5 is full of awesomeness.

                                  Yep, S5 is good. I really liked Bubbles' arc and conclusion to his story. Bittersweet

                                      Controversial. But I completely understand you rating three and four. In fact the characters introduced in s4 are one of the reasons s5 could be a lot less great than it is and still not fail.

                                        So much goodness. I dug S4 as well. I remember hating Presbylewski's character at first, but after seeing his downfall and subsequent redemption as a teacher it all came together.

                                        Funny seeing Michael B. Jordan in S1 as a young'un. Now he's hit the big time
