Hey question for those who got this beauty, is it warm ? Cause I need something that keeps warm between lightweight and my N1.

I'm not a straight answer sorta guy so apologies in advance for my rambling

It's been about 63F at night where I live. I took this jacket out for an evening stroll, just over a t-shirt. At first, it was perfect, not too cold, not too warm. However, after about 1 mile, I got pretty warm and had to take it off.

While it's much lighter than the N1 and not initially as warm, it insulates MUCH better, so if you're doing something active, you might find yourself overheating in this compared to the N1.

Hope that helps!

wow. the XLs sold out in a couple of minutes.

Lots of retailers are carrying this one. I'd bet you can get one from them!

Woo! The site held up

Does anyone know if the waist stretches much in these? I bought a pair in my usual 888 size 35 and the waist is pretty (almost too) tight. I really like the jeans and would love if the waist would stretch an inch.

You know, I've been experiencing the same thing. I assume it's simply because I don't wear them as often as, say, my 14oz broken twill IH, so they don't get as much time to stretch. Probably wear my broken twill like 4-5 days a week, but only pull these out about once every 6 weeks.

Have you been putting a lot of wear on them but not getting any stretch?

I have so many outfits on the sidelines waiting for these ivory beauties!

This is the first pair of jeans that I don't want to fade. The double indigo looks so sharp with a button-up shirt and dress shoes.

Thanks, gents! I ended up ordering them. I'll report back!

Heya folks, I was looking to pick up a unique and good quality pair of fingerless gloves for the 12-year-old daughter of a friend of mine. I know these are one-size, do you think they might be too big for her? Any of you that own these that have kids around that age had them try the gloves on?

Thanks!

How did the sizing work out for you, @Matt ? I just picked up another pair of white and black.

@Matt said in UTILITEES - 5.5oz Loopwheel Crew Neck T-Shirt:

@Paul9221 are your UHFs western or work and how do they fit? Do you have any IH printed ts? If so what size?

Heya Matt! Whether western or work (I have both) I've gone Large on all but one. I don't think I have any printed IH T shirts, but I'll give you some other shirt size comparisons that will hopefully help:

• Small in Dehen 1920 heavy duty T
• Large in Whitesville T (fits great after hot wash and hot dry)
• Medium/Large in 3Sixteen heavyweight T

With any stretchy material, like thermals and Ts and even hoodies (I take an M on the current run of IH hoodies), I try to go for my chest measurement, or maybe just a tad bigger. My chest is 39.25". I do like a trim fit, though. I could size up for a looser fit if that were my thing. Problem is I'm not especially tall (5'10"), so larger shirts can sometimes be too long.

Hope that helps, but let me know if you have any other questions.

I took my UHF size (large) on these and am really happy with the fit. Sized up from thermal (medium).

I like this new delivery estimate system. Nice work, gents!

@Jett129 this is SO smooth. Great rec!

Just grabbed this in the outlet
@Paul9221 your outdoor pics played a vital role here

Always happy to help people spend their money

@goosehd good advice, man! Thanks!

How about the rain question? If you wore it to a restaurant, and when you came out it was raining and you were without an umbrella, would you wear it in the rain or is that going to mess it up? Based on your gentle washing instructions, part of me thinks it might be totally fine, another part that it might stretch in weird ways after getting wet.

Hey guys, I'm really considering this but, I have to ask...can I get this thing wet? I can't imagine wearing this out in a rainstorm, but if I'm wearing it and it starts raining, do I need to hide it under my shirt?

And I think I saw that @goosehd hand-washed his without issue, which brings up that question: how are you supposed to clean this? I guarantee I'll stink it up in time.

@AdamC such a sharp look. Well done, Adam!

@AdamC Fabulous colors on yours!

It finally warming up in southern California, I have been living in mine. About 3-4 miles of walking in them per day. I hope to get some pops soon

@Paul9221 I just checked and they have really great prices on all the Don Fulano tequilas,especially the overproof Fuerte. That one’s a steal as is the Extra Anejo at $159.

Thanks for looking, Jett! Don Fulano is now at the top of the list! I'll report back, but it might be a couple of weeks since I just picked up Herencia.

@Jett129 said in Hard Drinkers, Lets Drink Hard (Spirits, Liquors and Cocktails):

@Paul9221 If you happen to come across this I would recommend it if for nothing else it’s bottled at 91 proof,the same proof as the Widow Jane bourbon. They only rested it for 8 week and 8 days,so there’s not a whole lot of oakiness from the barrel,but the added proof puts the agave taste front and center and it’s quite delicious. It’s a little bit pricey for what it is!

I'll keep an eye out for this one. My local shop only has this version of the reposado:
