Your biggest Iron Heart regret

@Oaktavia thanks man! Hope you’ll find a size 44 soon

@Mizmazzle argh, that’s a bummer

Off top.. :
SExIH03 aka the cyclist jeans. The second collab jean with SE (i think?). Couldn't even come close to affording those when they came out but it had such unique details and the fit, from what I remember, felt like the precursor to the straight tapered fits (633 and 888) we see now.IHSH-51. I have the black but I wish I had went one more size up and also got the red. These things are hefty and in my opinion the closes thing to the infamous SH20. They are deceivingly dense which means I'm rarely able to button my up anymore lol
Any of the TW jeans. I think they were waaay ahead of their time and for some reason did not get the same traction that IH got. Plus I really dig their back arcs.
I'm as ugly as you

we'd realise that it was actually only @endo asking
fake news, that came from many and all different endos, and thinking about it I'd support that request
Ah OK.....

Good call, there were some gems in that collection - shirts too
I really struggled to get people to understand that TW was not the poor relation of IH, but a different concept and a place for us to try out different cuts and fabrics that were not necessarily in the IH wheelhouse....
I don't really do regrets, because it changes nothing, but I am sad about that....

As regrets go it's pretty minor, but I've made the mistake of sizing up to XL in two shirts now.. All my Ls fit me near perfectly but sometimes I get conscious of gaining weight and not fitting into them anymore and size up preemptively. Never a good decision... guess I've just got stay in shape!

A BNWT IHT-1600 for £40 on another site that I promptly bought, felt smug about, to be subsequently told by the site that it was sold out. Gutted.
Other than that, every season I have to pass on stuff that I’d love to own. I try not to regret or think too long about it, safe in the knowledge that IH are going to continue making awesome stuff.
-
My biggest IH regret is not starting out with the 634. I've bought and sold a lot of cuts only to realize that the OG is by far my favorite.

IHSW-45 or the IHSH-20 black/grey

Hands down for me the iHSH-100 17oz hairline duck CPO in indigo.
One of the early IH CPOs and in days when they were a rare beast.
The fabric in the indigo version was insane and, if memory serves, the fabric has never been rerun.
Only decent pics I could find of the indigo….
Tried one on when in Gosport but left with a pair of jeans instead. Regretted it ever since.
Never seen one in my size (XXL) for sale since. If anyone has one, I will buy it!
I ain't got time to bleed.

@Cutlasshound Before my time, but definitely a grail item. I’ve only seen it referenced a few times over the years, but every time it’s mentioned I start searching for them again.
