So my least favorite thing about the UPS/FedEx/USPS is that damn signature confirmation... Now I can't show you my contest pair until Monday!!

I went with the old north X railcar 16.7oz cone. Just placed the order. Those Old North ones look fantastic. The orange line is a plus. I'm a sucker for unique patches too.

Yea I've only had blue or red line selvedge in the past so I wanted to go with these for something new. Plus from what I understand it's the heaviest cone selvedge to date.

finally! had to go to the post office to pick them up this morning. i only took 2 quick pics because i have a car picking me up for the airport in 90 mins and i haven't packed yet... first impression, I'm very impressed. the fabric is amazing, so soft to the touch, almost smooth (i have also been wearing a very slubby pair of pure blue japans for a while). the patch is beautiful! think and burned to perfection, i love the individual stamped "7/17". the thread is a different brown than other railcars, and its very rich looking. i tried them on and the fit is perfect... i think i was made for spikes. they fit so well that i contemplated wearing them to peru this week and buying another pair for this contest... but don't worry i talked myself out of it. great job with these guys! maybe we should push the date of the contest up

The only part I wish was different is the pocket bags. And only because the ones on the RDCX013 were made out of duck canvas.. They are so tough. I was spoiled by those pocket bags.
