Copper snaps?

No, why do you ask that?

Realized the color tint (better for eyes) on my monitor made the snap in the picture look copperish.

Copper snaps?

@Giles:

No.  A couple of new Buffalo's and a couple of plains.  I asked H to dream up another "crazy plaid", let's see if he was listening…..

Something like the 107 would be great. I just killed my wallet with holiday gift shopping for friends and family but I'll take a blue 130 off you soon.

If I'm a US 7 in Wesco packer last, should I bet a 7 for White's semidress?

Oh fuck yes… fuck yes... been looking for a leather jacket for the near future and this will have all of my yes.

@Fadez:

Thanks Dylantbmayes!! That looks epic!

How much for this beast, G? I decided to save some money and not go for another UHF Buffalo (but may still get the ombre… probably will get the ombre... but money...) so maybe this is doable considering whether it costs me my future firstborn or something.

I got a L, which is typically my IH jacket size. I don't really wish I'd gone bigger, but it's definitely a shirt and not a shacket. I can't even wear the IHSH-59 under it.

I love the thing as a shirt. But for those who want a jacket, think big.

Do you have much freedom of movement? Can you punch and clinch someone and elbow them in the face?

I'm a lover, not a fighter.

Can you pinch and hug someone and lick them in the face?

I'd say you could defend a woman's honor without much difficulty.  And this shirt is so bad ass getting a little blood on it will only add character.

You guys are too funny.

Advice to people buying this: If you want a shacket, size up. If you want a shirt, get your jacket size.

Did you size up, or go TTS?

@Aries:

Jdub - I'm 6'2 and 180lbs and I definitely needed an XXL, I think you'll be similar.

So I spilled some toothpaste with a whitening agent on my shirt and it's made a bit of a stain I can't seem to kick after one wash.

Any advice?

I personally use a dab of Woolite Darks… makes my toothpaste stains go away very quickly and easily. So... detergent + water (temperature didn't matter for me, but I used warm).

I tried using other shit... not as effective in my PERSONAL experience.

@Max:

I'll see wether I can help you out

Thanks Max!

@Max:

If you need a size that is sold out, V&S might still have it. I can check that out for you.

I need to post an update too, did a wash and it helped the evo a lot.

It would probably be a Small, especially given the expected shrinkage.

I'm assuming 634 Indigo/Indigo?

Wish I had the funds for this when it came out. Well, at least there's always something interesting lying in wait.

@TrickHell:

Hi, I have a linguistics minor and can explain this.

L and R do not have what is called a "significant phonetic value" in Japanese. In Welsh there are two ways of saying "L." English have words with both sounds, but we wouldn't notice if someone transposed them. An example in English of a different sound without a significant phonetic value difference:

This
Thistle

In "this" the "th" sound is vocalized. Your voicebox rumbles. In "thistle" your lips, teeth and tongue all do the exact same thing as in "this," but your voicebox is mute. If I said "this" with the "th" from "thistle" (or vice-versa), it might sound a little strange, but you probably wouldn't notice in every day speech and you've probably actually done this hundreds of times without noticing. "L" and "R" also have very similar physical ways of being vocalized and, getting back to the beginning, are about as different as the two "th" pronunciations to a native Japanese speaker.

Interesting.

Hi @vaya con dios, I've sent you a PM regarding boots.

@4c:

^ Most likely because the thinner leather mid-sole and modern lightweight synthetic heel cup in the Wesco boots.

Thanks 4c!

In the words of Gordon Gekko, "Green, for lack of a better word, is good. Green is right. Green works. Green clarifies, cuts through, and captures, the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Green, in all of its forms; green for life, for money, for love, knowledge, has marked the upward surge of mankind"

I've always thought blue was the color for knowledge. Blue mana, anyone? MTG… 

What's the reason why my Wescos feel much lighter than my Vibergs? (310)

Nice… I picked up the UHR for a sick sale of $200 IIRC.
