@Ndubya94 The Real McCoy's has a very good quality red chambray as well.
Thanks @BloodnThunder that was one I was considering as well but, I decided I wanted a more symmetrical and classic style pockets.
-
No worries. Based on your response to Furatto I thought the pockets on the McCoys could be a deal breaker.

I am not sure if this has been answered before but I will ask this here.
Why do certain IH pants (like IH-702, IH-711) have buttons? Wouldn't it be better if it had a metallic one like the one in jeans or IH-710?
Also, can one replace the buttons with tacks or metallic buttons (are they called tacks?) ? If so, who does it?

I'm hoping someone more computer literate than I can help answer this question. I'm thinking about pre-ordering the new 'Mad Max' game for PC and wanted to know whether I will be able to run it on my laptop. I gather the system requirements are pretty demanding. In particular, can anyone tell me whether my CPU is going to be an issue? I've got an i7 processor but only 2.2 Ghz.
Specs. for my laptop and minimum + recommended game specs. listed below:

Not played it so I don't know how demanding it actually is, but based on these specs I suspect you'll get away with it. What you're lacking in CPU you make up for in RAM and video processing.
Although in my experience I nearly always have to crank the advanced graphics functions down, in-game, on laptops.

Has anyone used the Shoe Healer before for a resole job? Any comments are welcome.

Anyone got any recommendations for a decent hiking boot. Looking at Danner's but not sure if i am just buying into a name.
-
@spitfiredealer I think Diemme makes a pretty solid hiking boot. I have personal experience with the Frye Rogan hikers. Owned them for seven years. I'm not sure they are quite as quality as Danners but they can take a real beating. I've put them through hell and they still have life in them (resoled once).
-
I would have said Diemme was more a fashion boot in the same vein as Fracap tbh. I may be wrong though. I have some Fracaps here and I love the look of them, and they are very well made. Not sure i'd trust them to get me through a tough hike here in the Alps though. The vibram christy sole looks good but wears out super fast.
La Sportiva and Scarpa make good tough boots. Would look pretty shit with a pair of 634S out on the town mind
Depends what you're looking for. -
^ agreed when it comes to just about every model Diemme makes. But check out the Tibet. It's definitely not just a fashion boot.
-
i was always under the impression Diemme were a fashion boot too. Need a pair of boots for walking with good grip and keep my feet dry ish. Won't be something i would wear out on a night out but at the same time don't want a pair like this
