disheveled - That clip is actually pretty nice, more complicated than it looked from the previous angle. It looks to be a couple pieces, and it has more relief than I was initially noticing. I've only recently broken the 20oz barrier, but my stainless Kershaw seems to fit alright on the back pocket of 16 and 18, and I haven't thrown it on the 21s yet. I also have a couple pens I carry that also do alright, one is machined out of solid titanium and the other is copper with a stainless clip. The nice thing about titanium is that it has a lot of flex without bending, so that one doesn't have any issue getting loose when going from thicker to thinner material. The clip is 1 solid piece minus the screw (it does give the impression of two pieces because of some machining) I didn't know that about the resilience of titanium, sure makes it perfect for pocket clip material |

I was expecting 2 deliveries today. Unfortunately, my 3sixteen Crosscut is currently in shipping limbo. But, the Freenote Cloth Riders Jacket(olive) I order from Huckberry made it. I'll try to find time for a write up, in the Freenote thread, in the near future. I ordered a 2nd Riders Jacket(charcoal) from Zuriick, as well. I haven't received any shipping info on it, yet. I felt a bit conflicted ordering 2 of the same jacket. But, the colors are quite different, and at 50% off retail, I couldn't pass it up. I paid a few bones over $400 for both. Essentially, making it a 2 for 1. If either is not to my liking, I'll flip one. Although, as a teaser, I will say, it would be very difficult for me to give up the olive.

One of my recent purchases is finally en route...  www.cat-bates.comI'm not much of an accessory person, but these are so cool, and all handmade from start to finish in America. All metal pieces are casted. No mass production. |

The bracelets are just slightly over $100 each. Necklace was a doozie, but I splurged. I sat on this purchase for about 6 months before finally pulling the trigger. Can't wait to get them all in hand. Might get a brass ring made, to boot.

Since we are on the topic, I picked up a cool necklace made of whale bone. It was made by a guy in Hawaii.  |

New IH pickups... The 716 chinos are alot darker in person, and the " red IH tag" is actually burgundy. The fit is GREAT. Knee up seems about the same as the 707, with a smaller cuff (15"). The shirt fit is great, as well. I could stand to have gotten a large instead of medium, but they still fit, just more trim, which I don't mind.  That's the chinos in direct comparison to the black t-shirt.  |

They fit like my IHTB-06, but with a nice cuffed sleeve. For me and my style, they for great, but I typically like my shirts a bit smaller than most, while paired with a slightly loose pant.

I venture to say you should size up. It's a snug fit, and you don't strike me as a "snug" kinda guy, lol

I just received my 1600. One of each in xxl. Nice, just what I wanted. I'm a 42r and wouldn't have wanted any smaller. Don't like snug knits.

yeah here I was thinking how these 1600's wouldn't be practical as a T shirt before because of the weight and now i'm considering picking one up.

My most recent purchase.... Vintage, handmade indigo dyed sashiko noragi vest. Lots on home repairs and lots of character. It's en route. I hope to have it before my trip to Kojima soon. Depending on how I like it upon arrival, I may buy a couple more.  |
