The usual Suspects .. Levi's // Lee // Wrangler
-
I am going to try and deescalate this situation. This forum is a meeting place for many individuals with many different backgrounds, languages, and occupations. We all try to get along and contribute in meaningful ways. One of the main ways we try to do that is through the use of humour but also of empathy. For example, we currently have one member who hasn’t been well (healthy) in a bit and we are all offering our support in the hopes that he returns to health quickly.
Another example is the comment that @endo made this morning. It was simply pointing out that no one other than you had posted in this thread since it was created other than you. It is not meant as anything else other than that.
Please do not take it for something it is not.
Retaliation is something that is frowned upon and leads to mods and admin getting involved. We all have to keep in mind that because many of us are not native English speakers, that things get lost in nuance. Please be mindful of the language that is used.

@Hamza-Yunus I wish to apologize for my comment. It was not my intention to offend you, but it seems that I did. I'm really sorry. Among other reasons, I'm on this forum because I like enthusiasm and passion. We can find it here in so many ways, and you created something very special with this thread. I cannot recall any other thread that has been kept on by a single person for that long. Levi's, Lee etc may not be of major interest to me, but your passion was. And when Dino wrote his comment I meant mine as a joke to him. But as said, this has offended you which should not happen. Please accept my apology.

@endo--- "And when Dino wrote his comment I meant mine as a joke to him."
I knew exactly what you meant, and I took it for what it was. A lighthearted joke. It is just like you said, this is a place for like minded people to get together and geek out about our passion for Iron Heart.
To include all things denim is sometimes a stretch.It would be like if we were in, lets say a " Porshe " forum--and all I did was rave about my Toyota Carolla.
Yes they are both autos...but not at the same level.
And sometimes @Hamza-Yunus you have to know how to read the room, or at least know who your audience is.
Sorry for any hurt feelings ok? -
Well, @endo I believe you do not know me well enough to make such a joke. My thread focuses on my passions and aims to connect with others who share an interest in Western, equestrian, wrangler, cowboys, barrel-racera or rodeo culture, which those three brands represent. I hope it won't be a burden to anyone.
it is my safe haven, my last sanctuary and for others like me. IH is more geared towards bike-fraternity of 50s.
So, it's not Bikers Vs Cowboys ..I hope your apology will restore the integrity and chastity of my thread, and I consider the cross-firing as collateral damage.
@goosehd, i reckon your curiosity has been sufficiently addressed.
I do not have access to IH products, unlike some of you. I am a denim enthusiast, and Levi's, Lee, and Wrangler are my holy grail.
I wish and pray for speedy recovery for the fallen member, being a human.
Finally, I consulted with @seawolf before starting this thread. -
@dinobarnesberlin I believe I accurately assessed the situation, and perhaps the moderator had a clearer perspective afterwards than us.

My thread is dedicated to my passions and is not intended to involve others...
Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but it may be of benefit to remember that this is an open, public forum. There are no private threads here where a single person can post without the possibility of others adding their own comments and opinions. Simply by starting the thread, you open yourself up to conversation. That conversation is what this place is all about.

@Go-For-Chill you are right !! I meant this is not something everyone wishes to see or not enforced upon others.
Would you like to add anything to this thread in term of #LLW? -
This thread is not my property or ownership. It belongs to the public. Everyone is welcome to join, comment, or just silently observe from his/her comfort level.
If have nothing similar of sorts, just show respect or ignore respectfully. -

Would you like to add anything to this thread in term of #LLW?Absolutely! I’m a Wrangler lover. Here are my Wrangler 13mwz selvedge jeans and jacket. Both made with White Oak cone denim. Denim from the US, with the sewing done in Mexico. One of my top 3 favorite jeans of all time and favorite denim jacket.

@Go-For-Chill now we are talking and heading somewhere .. these things would make us forget words and animosity(s).

@Go-For-Chill got a question for ya?
Mwz stands for:- Men with zipper
- Made with zipper
- Men wear zipper
- Something else
Humor me.

The low Levi's style pockets are nice for riding motorcycles, but nothing makes your butt look as good as Wrangler-style high pockets. As the women in Texas say "cowboy's butts drive us nuts."
