Reply to Good brand for regular white socks? by llmercll
Darn tough socks are nice! Bought 10 pairs last year and haven’t regretted it, lifetime warranty as well. Buy off of their website and not Amazon

Reply to I got Zojirushi for my fiancé’s birthday! His 12hr shifts will be better now. All for $67 by Tokyo_babygirl
So I took the 0-ring off of my my flask a few years ago to clean it and now it leaks. I can't figure out how to get on on correctly. I only got a few months out of it.

Well Wiss scissors back in the day were American made. When it comes to hand tools I like Channel Locks & Klein.

Ah the NATO pants strap. I prefer the newer style webbing belts you find in a lot of golf shops. They’re an upgrade to what is pictured.

I've been using an Arc Teryx Web belt daily for 5 years and it still looks new.

Yep, grip 6, you’ll never need anything else to keep your pants up. Worn mine almost everyday for the last like 5 years

Zojirushi is awesome but those flasks are legit too good. Even if I prepare my coffee the night before, it's way too hot to drink in the afternoon so I have to open it and let it cool for like an hour.

You use a comb to remove the hairs, then wash the bristles and handle with soapy water. If it's a plastic or hard rubber brush, you can soak it in warm water with some Dawn dish soap. If there's styling product buildup on the bristles, a wet cleaning toothbrush with some soapy water works well. I'd try to avoid getting rubber pads and wooden handles super wet as much as possible, and don't immerse them, but they can be wiped.

Hair brushes are actually pretty easy to clean! Clear out the hair with a comb, a rattail, and/or scissors, and then soak any gunk off of the bristles with a mixture of warm water and dish soap or shampoo. I usually let it sit for ~15 minutes and then scrub it a little against my hand, rinse it out, then let it dry completely before using it again. There are lots of tutorials on YouTube with tips for cushion-type brushes or natural fiber, &c.

My BIFL hairbrush is a Mason Pearson. Some people in my family have had theirs since the 1980's. The cost hurt, but I've probably spent way more than that on lesser brushes over the last 20 years.

I don’t want to come off as rude but why would you want a bifl hairbrush?
I think it’s really hard to clean a brush so it will not be hygienic, and any plastic/wood brush can be use for a couple of years so the waste is not so much

Live a little brother. How do you really quantify a lifetime. Bought them in HS (2007). You tell me.
