SR540Beaver 116 Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 I'm glad I got my spousal unit to buy me a Jac-shirt for Christmas when it was still $100. She supports me and the male offspring unit's Scouting, but probably would have told me to take a hike for $150. Link to post Share on other sites
Eamonn 61 Posted January 13, 2004 Author Share Posted January 13, 2004 I'm starting to think that the other members of the forum are Looming over me. Eamonn Link to post Share on other sites
dsteele 20 Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Eamonn: Only because you "weft" your warp behind. Perhaps you should take the shuttle! Shame on us. Someone actually tried to put this thread back on track and we go to weaving 101. DS Link to post Share on other sites
ManyIrons 10 Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Eamonn & dsteele, yes you both have "spun" this thread back off track. You two really should "mend" your ways. I really thought I was done with this, but as it turns out I just couldn't "linen" things alone. (Insert audible groan here). JimmyD: Would your Dad still be enjoying this?

Eamonn 61 Posted January 14, 2004 Author Share Posted January 14, 2004 Me thinks that we have about worn this thread out. Could be time to have a dose of cotton gin. We could ask Jenny to serve it but she is always in such a spin. Eamonn Link to post Share on other sites
SpringofSummerSky 10 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 The prices of uniforms would not be so outrageous if they weren't made by the same folks that make Dickies jeans--sold at Wal-Mart for less than 1/3 the price. The Scout shop needs to look at what off-the-shelf products can be adapted to Scout needs to bring the costs into a reasonable figure. Link to post Share on other sites
dan 10 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Dickies are not made in the usa. Link to post Share on other sites
Fat Old Guy 11 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 "Dickies are not made in the usa." Some are and some aren't. I have some that say "Hecho en Mexico," some that say "Made in Honduras" and others that say "Made in USA." Link to post Share on other sites
ManyIrons 10 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Hmmmm Eamonn, looks like this thread is getting back on track, thus you were correct. I now know I can always "Ely" on your judgement. I've heard of Dickies, but don't know much about 'em. I guess my first question is what's their durability as compared with the Scout pants?

I guess my first question is what's their durability as compared with the Scout pants?" That's like asking how a Mack Truck compares to a Yugo. Dickies are industrial strength work clothes made for serious working conditions. They last forever or nearly so. Link to post Share on other sites
