  • RE: Luggage Bags and Packs

    @Graeme:

    Review of the Mission Workshop Radian Arkiv.

    I had one of those Mission Workshop modular bags for a while but ultimately ended up getting rid of it in favor of a Chrome bag.  It just didn't have the satisfying heft I expected of it and its lack of real water bottle pockets was annoying.

  • RE: Random questions to which you seek an answer

    I use obenaufs and pecards boot oil (obenaufs if they have been getting wet, pecards if they've just been sitting).  I don't think there is a single right answer for leather care.

  • RE: Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?

    How did this sell? https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=6156.0

    It would be nice to maybe see a new version, that corduroy collar is a nice detail.

  • RE: IHSH-165T - Indigo Herringbone Single Pocket Work Shirt - Tonal Stitching

    @neph93:

    @lester_galula:

    Anyone have a sense for how this shirt would shrink in a warm or hot hand wash?

    Sorry to disappoint but you won’t get any shrinkage. I have the non tonal version and it came up before big everywhere. I washed it twice on 60C then 80C. No shrinkage to be had.

    My seamstress did a great job on it though and it’s an amazing fabric.

    Gotcha, thanks! Yeah, overall, I'm very excited about it, the fabric feels absolutely bulletproof.

  • RE: IHSH-165T - Indigo Herringbone Single Pocket Work Shirt - Tonal Stitching

    Anyone have a sense for how this shirt would shrink in a warm or hot hand wash?  Just picked one of these up, and although it generally fits nicely, the sleeves are a bit long. Was thinking it might be feasible to just shrink them a little in the wash vs. seeing a tailor or resigning myself to always rolling the sleeves.

    @Chris:

    I think the pebbling is part of the casting process.  After 10-15 years of use, the surface smooths down.

    I think Lodge pre-seasons all their pans now, which to me, is kinda like buying pre-faded denim.

    The pebbling is a result of the casting process, but in antique cast iron pans and some contemporary brands, they sand the interior smooth, which allows for a better non-stick surface.

    I also have antique skillets, but the brand Field sells cast iron skillets with smooth interiors for about the same price as Lodge.

    @selvedgejack:

    Checking in from the South Bay of sunny California! Just bought my first pair of Iron Heart 777-14 for that year round versatility! Been wearing it all week to break in the waist (which is improving daily)!

    Welcome! Where in the South Bay?
