I agree, the Cabelas is indistructable. I spilled paint on it and the stain came right out. If you only are going to buy one shirt the Cabela would be my choice. The stone color is perfect.

Strange you just posted this. About two hours ago I took the plunge and took the web strap off a MKVII I just got of ebay. Instead of undoing the stiching I (close your eyes) cut it. Just after the stiches and I figured that I could always re-stich it if I wanted to later (although it will be a few ...

Just FYI, you can use the zoom feature on your dvd player to zero in on any part of a paused frame while you are watching the movie.

I purchased them from aldenshop and they will take them back if they dont fit correctly. You just need to try them on without causing any damage so the could be resold. I am normally a 10.5D and the 10.5D fit me perfectly.

Just joined COW and purchased some Aldens. The out of the box color is a medium brown, really nice, although not "screen accurate". Used some brown polish on the white stiching. Beautiful and very comfortable. I intend to "age" them the old fashioned way - wear them all the time....
