Great Indoors store closing sale?
Comments (5)Originally we were going with Kenmore so we HAVE to buy at Sears. But you're right. I should go look there. My father has been shopping at Abt forever. I remember their old store on Dempster. And I grew up calling it "A-B-T." Only recently did I learn it's actually a name pronounced "Abt." OOPS!...See MoreHancock and Moore Leathers
Comments (3)Hi Emma, I'm doing this from home and don't have the leather handles with me, but its quite normal to see significant variances in aniline-dyed leather even within a given batch from a tannery. The higher grade the leather, the more they vary as a rule. Nevada and Canyon are Aniline-dyed, which means they are vat-dipped for color and are not corrected with spray paint (pigmented). Can't recall if Tuscany is aniline or not. Here's the general rules for leather and leather like products: Vinyl: Dead-on color. As it should be with a man-made product. BiCast: Closer to vinyl but consistent in color. Finished: Painted leather with topcoating. Mostly consistent colors, but can vary lightly. Aniline Plus: Vat dipped Aniline, but color-corrected with paint. So-So variance. Pure Aniline: The best! Vat-dyed with high color and significant shade variances. Looking at aniline-dyeed swatches is best done from about 10 feet back, seriously! Also, anilines tend to changes tones when pulled tight,so you see one shade when laying loose as a sample, and the finished product on the sofa will be lighter in most cases as its pulled tight. If color is absolutely critical, then you can request a cutting for approval prior to order production, but this often causes more difficulties than its worth. First off,it slows production about a month on average. Second, if you decline the sample, chances are you may have to wait another three to four months before a new leather batch arrives. Third, the sofa will look different from even the best cutting sample as the leather 'takes' differently in color and shade when upholstered. Hope that helps Duane Collie...See MoreNeed help contacting Hancock & Moore
Comments (4)Hancock & Moore was purchased by Century Furniture however many of the key Hancock & Moore personnel have remained at the company & they will still operate out of the Hancock & Moore facility in much of the same manner has they have been operating. Freethinker99 as a former Hancock & Moore retailer have never known them to replace cushion cores to the original owner during the lifetime of their warranty. Cushion cores have a warranty period....See MoreComfortable Travel pants with closing pockets for women? Stores ?
Comments (32)Thanks to everyone. I just got back from the trip. After ordering and returning several pairs of women's pants, where the pockets were too shallow for practicality, or the rise was too low, or the pockets made me look baggy, or the fabric contained spandex (too hot for the desert where I was going), I was out of time. I will look into the tactical pants when I have more time, but ordering and returning was getting very frustrating. Following raven cajun’s practical suggestion, what I ended up buying in-store the week before I left, were men's rip-stop 100% cotton pants, Wrangler’s. They had both deep front pockets and flattish cargo pockets which were not the gusseted puffy looking kind. I had to buy them large enough to accommodate a woman's derriere (not large by any means, but larger than a man's), then take them in at the waistband. I can sew and tailor, but even for someone with few skills in this area; it was very easy and fast to do, and could be done by hand if needed. (I mention this in case someone else needs to take the same route.) I ordered one pair of Cherokee black cotton scrubs with lots of pockets from Amazon, and sewed snaps into 2 of the pockets. Those were my “dress” pants, LOL. In the evening I doubt anyone could even see that I was bristling with pockets. I HAD bought 1 pair of women's cargo pants from L. L. Bean that fit (which were on sale but 3 x the price of the men's pants I bought locally), but only wore them once. They have spandex and were much too hot. The front pockets were too shallow to hold anything but a folded Kleenex without being afraid it would fall out when sitting. I will add a deeper pocket liner to those later to make them longer inside. The cargo pockets on the leg of those were fine. I also ordered a ScottEvest, a lightweight jacket version, but did not use it on this trip. It was always too hot. I’m sure I can use that later....See Moreclueless1959
