Saddest day 

Have had this guy for nearly 3 years.

Any tips on how to fix?

Hey Everyone!

Wondering what the chances are that I could get away with just a couple hot soaks prior to wearing these?

Reason is, I only have access to a top loader washing machine, and in my experience, anytime I wash my denim in a top loader, I get some marbling - even if I turn the spin off, wash cold, etc.

Anyone have experience with just soaking these guys? Or maybe a top loader wash on delicate with no spin on a new pair wont cause marbling?

Thanks in advance for any and all input!

@Matt:

Skip the o ring and put the clip directly on the split ring.

This is such a great idea. I found some small, flat brass split rings on Etsy and will get one to link the hook back on.

Thanks so much for the reply!

@AdamJ Nice. Thanks!

Any restock dates in sight?

Hey all,

Wondering, given how heavy the XHS fabric is, if anyone sized up a little in these? I'm between my usual IH-888 size, which is a 31, and a 32, which puts all the measurements a hair bigger than what most of my pairs are at now, after some wear.

I'm just thinking a tad extra room in these might be nice, and wondering if anyone followed the same logic before purchasing, and if they're glad they did.

Thanks in advance for any input!

Thanks for all the input! Much appreciated.

Looks like it caught on something and the O ring opened up.  Close it up again with some pliers…

It did! My car key got stuck when climbing a shelving unit at work. I didn't notice, so when I jumped down it forced the O ring open.

I’ll try and close it. I’m a little nervous it wont regain it’s circular shape and will instead be misshapen..

We’ll see. Thanks for the reply!

No bleach used recently. I thought the same thing, but the shirt came out looking the same - no orange stains typical of bleach contact. I asked my roommate and she hasn't used any either. Come to find that we don't even have bleach in the house haha.

Thanks for your input guys. I guess I'll just give it another run through the wash, maybe with warm water and a little extra detergent!

Just washed mine for the first time. Came out of smelling strongly of bleach. Anyone ever have this experience/might know what caused the smell?

Just to clarify, no bleach was used in any wash prior to putting the shirt in!
