Hey y'all, question regarding the top of this GA hat. Is it possible to remove the flower and fix it to a button on a shirt? Or use it like a lapel pin? It spins but does not unscrew…was wondering if this is a possible to add to my duck Untucked shirt or my wabash work shirt...

@Warner can you please advise about the above post? Thanks!

Hi all, sorry this took a minute. Sometimes I have a hard time navigating message boards.
The snap is a standard one, get your finger nail under it and pry it off the top. It will pop off, I promise. But they are on there pretty tightly. If you trash your hat you can pop that thing off and snap it on your leather. Hope that helps and hope you're all great.
Best, Josh

Doesn’t it snap off like a snap-cap?
Yes, totally, same piece as the snap caps.

…I have a question Sir Giles, we're entering summer with high temperatures and high humidity and I'm reevaluating my staunch loyalty to the 25oz XHS offerings. Now, I've read on the forums that the 14oz jeans are not necessarily 'cooler' wearing as you would think because of the weave, my question, is what do you think/know are the weight in ounces that the typical Levi's jeans would be? I wore the 505's exclusively for about a hundred years until I found Iron Heart. Thanks, Curious George.

…@Jett129 that's exactly what I had found! They were getting whimpier and whimpier. Found IH and it was 'see ya' later'!
...@neph93 so if I were looking for a 'summer jean' weight would you steer me towards the 21oz before the 14oz? Doesn't seem right but if the weave is tight and doesn't breath in the 14oz weight I guess it makes sense. :o

Going from PBJ's last summer to IH 21oz this summer, the IH's definitely breathe more, and so far I have been able to wear them every day this muggy/hot spring so far, highest temp being about 87 with high humidity.

I was shopping with my son the other day and fingered a pair og 501’s. They were felt lighter than the shirt I was wearing….
@vaquero357 The 14oz is the only IH core denim I’ve never owned, so I can only help you with half the equation. While 21oz denim will never be linen, there is no doubt the airy weave makes them viable summer wear.
I suspect the tighter weave of the 142 denim does indeed make them sticky, but the lighter weight should mitigate that a little.
I’ll likely be sticking to 21oz during the summer, as per usual.

I move the question here as the "Ask Giles Anything" thread is more for asking me things that perhaps only I can answer…....
That said, about 13oz....
