After some careful thought, I have noticed that while googling, you may find IH products which "appear to be" much cheaper elsewhere, i.e. eBay for instance. IH products are definitely getting to be a bit more mainstream now, though you'll probably never find them at Nordstroms. However, the service and customer attention which Giles and Kiya (Self Edge staff) provide are irreplaceable – and the peace of mind you get when doing biz with these two gentlemen allows you to focus on more important things -- like living life. That's my honest opinion. Every now and then when I think of the $$ I'm spending with Giles and Kiya, I must remind myself of a lesson I've painfully learned many, many times in life -- "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch". Put another way, "If something seems too good to be true, there's always a catch".

I went to venice beach today and i fell down while i was longboarding on my loaded dervish. The sand made my urethane wheels slide out on the concrete and i ate shit sick with it. I now have a 3"x4" patch of skin missing from the spot right below your elbow. Thankfully no harm came to my IH's. Just a bit of dust that was brushed off immediately haha. I wonder how many more falls will my IH's take before ripping?
Oh yea i was wondering today whether it was possible to send jeans back to the Self Edge store for repairs on rips and tears and the like. I'd be willing to pay a fee as long as i get the peace of mind that no matter how much my IH's go through, they can be saved.
I'm sure that you can. Ig not Haraki offers a repair service:

I've heard that tailoring/repair is a service Self Edge, San Francisco offers on all their jeans. Email Kiya directly : denim@selfedge.com .

And honestly, right now i'd kill for one of those FH leaf rings.
Would it be too femme if i wore a ring? The FH ring has been the only piece of jewelery that has ever attracted me..
Hell no! I know of two dudes I am friends with who own and wear that ring daily. You just have to be able to pull it off. Helps if you are typically draped with females or have a confident look to support that sort of accessory. Does this sound like you?
Shubs - Thanks. The winning pot is around $500! In the past two years I have won a few thousand dollars winning different Fantasy Sports leagues. Hopefully this is just another.

Just wanted to say that I am in LA today. Spent the day selling sneakers, visiting with Bill at Craft, enjoying some good Argentine Beer/ Food, visiting the Prism Gallery to see one of my favorite artists new works, and am feeling lucky to be alive! Oh yeah, and I wore my SExIH07BKIII all day in the heat. Hope you are all having a great day wherever you are and whatever you are doing!
