Can anyone make a comparison between the Strike Gold 1103EX vs. the Iron Heart 634SR?  Both are unsanforized and 23oz, but in terms of the companies, are Strike Gold's made as well as the Iron Heart's?

I've been watching the Self-Edge sale on SuFu for several days now, and all the SR's are finally gone.  All that's left in terms of heavyweight denim are the 1103EX's, so I was interested to know if they are comparable in terms of quality and reputation?

I'll let you know ASAP, I have owned the SRs and I have the 1103ex inbound

just looked above my post & i agree with jaco. it is fine to wash your flannels.  i will admit i do baby mine & wash delicate & all that jazz, but they have never come out an worse for wear when my wife washes them on a regular setting with regular soap.

now my black armor you will not be getting in any washing machines

you talking about jeans or 08 shirt?
I machine wash my 9301s
but not the 08
that just gets the horsehair brush

[madmonday]

i am scared to death to machine wash the following items:

08ss
9301
9527J
9526V

not saying you can't, but I AM SCARED TO DEATH to ruin them in my washing machine 

true story

monday - i think ur washer has that option where you can pick the load size..just throw in the 08 , wash warm and pick large , so you have more water than needed and do a no spin , should be fine…

Fuck that - I'm never washing my IHSH-08. After what happened last time… I'm sure hectic feels the same  ::)

thinking of buying the Herman Miller Aeron adjustable chair for work
(I sit there hours a day)
any reasonable alternatives?
don't want to spend much more than the HM costs which is around $800.
has to be available online

With the IH-MW (ox blood) which IH-WL will look better tan or black?

[Seul]

I'd say tan.

[Giles]

Me too, because the tan will darken with use…...
