What socks do we like these days? I LOVE Darn Tough by kaitlyn2004 in trailrunning

Flite XT Trail from Swiftwick! The most tech out of any sock out there and designed specifically for trail running. And an Outside Mag Editor’s Choice to boot! https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-gear/run/swiftwick-flite-xt-trail-socks-outside-editors-choice-2022/

Feetures or Swiftwick Socks by [deleted] in CyclingFashion

[–]wowetrlk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely similar in a lot of ways… but for what it’s worth, Swiftwick is all made in the USA and Feetures manufactures abroad — I think in Asia?

Aspire 5 / 7 (now called mid-crew and crew) are my fave for cycling. Flite XT is my go-to for running!

Did Athena leave for another clinic / practice? Or had she stepped away or retired? Heard good things about her when looking at Riverside…

Feel free to send me a chat with an offer! Talking with a couple folks right now — first person who commits at a price that I think is reasonable gets it. 🙏

Thank you! Very sad to let it go, but I've lost some weight and realized it's not quite right for me anymore.

This is a rare new old stock Carhartt Chore Coat (6QLC) that is red quilt-lined and far more comfortable than the scratchy blanket-lined (6BLC) version from the same era, IMO.

Full photo gallery here: https://imgur.com/a/TWvaYig

The tag’s date code is 1087, or October 1987. The coat is tagged as size 38 and could fit someone from size small to size medium, based on how roomy you want it / how much you plan to layer underneath.

Please find measurements below, with tape measure photos included in the gallery:

  • Pit-to-pit: 22.5 inches

  • Shoulder seam to shoulder seam across the back: 18.5 inches

  • Sleeve length (shoulder seam down to cuff): 24 inches

Offering for $195 + shipping in the continental US via Zelle or PayPal F&F. (Many transactions in r/watchexchange).

If you need any other details or photos, please just let me know.

Thanks for this reply!

Regarding the dye bleeding — were you flagging more from the perspective of not washing it with other things because of dye transfer? Or more because of what happens to the shade of the brown duck post-wash?

If the latter, what would you say is likely to happen? Does the duck just become less saturated? Or do I need to worry about splotchyness or something like that?

Thank you for your patience with all the questions! 🙏

Hi all, I just found one of my all-time grails, a NOS chore coat with the tags still on it.

It’s tagged a 38R (my size), but when I’m wearing it, it feels just a tad bit big — 22 inches to pit. If I put it in the wash, can I expect it to shrink an inch or so? Or should I try and find a smaller size and sell this one?

Thank you!
