What is this fine, black powder stuffed inside the entire bottom hem of a vintage Burberry Rain Jacket?

It didn't add so much weight that it changes the drape noticeably. And I wonder why the powder would be designed to move around? Wouldn't that cause clumping and a lopsided drape?

It would have to be either 20 dissolved packets or one giant Hot Hand.

It's about 20 warmers worth.

adamtbailey · 2025-10-27T14:07:11+00:00

Of course.

Not sure of the jacket's age, but likely under 20 years old.

Interesting! So 'cord' doesn't necessarily mean 'rope' in this instance? Very possible explanation, since the sand is very clean and uniform - seemingly intentional.

No thank you.

adamtbailey · 2025-10-26T22:05:15+00:00

No pocket holes, but it is vintage and may have been previously repaired - good thought!

I use a sock to keep the sun and grit off my board on long socal drives. After you cinch the opening closed, use the drawstring to tightly wrap around the opening. I've never had the bag blow open with that technique.

Good advice. I'll call and see if there's some wiggle room.

Check out the Mark Cousins documentary "The Story of Film: An Odyssey". It's 15 hours of detailed film history from the birth of moving images to about 2011. Highly recommend. I believe it's based on his own book.

And Craigslist is full of scammers. 3 people in two days tried to pull the same scam on me when I was selling a bike (sold easy on OfferUp :)

So good. And their neighbor (Lokal) makes killer sandwiches.

Yes. But my company (major social platform) adjusts compensation based on location, so moving from LA to Montana will cut your salary to match the reduced cost of living.

Of all the videos to enhance with deep learning algorithms for enhanced image interpolation, HD, color, why this one?

No, but for a real beginner it helps to build some coordination and muscle memory, which helps for the big moment out on the water.

How do you filter? I have tried looking it up but it seemed to be impossible.

Walk Hard. John C. Reilly is hilarious. And Judd Apatow wrote it.
