Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?

[neph93]

@rimaarts not really an option for the same reason an IH 25oz type III jacket doesn’t exist. The denim is so thick, and tricky to work with that the amount of felled seams make it impossible to make well.

[rimaarts]

@neph93 well samurai apparently makes (or made?) 25oz jacket... Soso denim makes even 33oz chore(probably quite so so but still)... So I guess it's not impossible? Really really hard, yes...

P.s. type 3 doesn't exist? Any tops 25 Oz does exist?

[hjl360]

@rimaarts theres a 25oz vest

[neph93]

@rimaarts you’ll notice I said impossible to make well. And that is Haraki-san’s conclusion. Not mine.

[neph93]

@hjl360 correct. And that was decided to be the limit. The challenge was the seams on the sleeves and the cuffs, which also negates the shirts.

At the end of the day @rimaarts never say never. But the denims you mention are not IH 25oz, and the brands aren’t Iron Heart. Until the Boss finds a way of doing it with his denim, that he is satisfied with, it won’t happen.

@rimaarts I have an 18OZ Soso denim shirt,and while it’s a nice shirt and I like it,I have a tough time believing that it’s as heavy weight as my 14OZ Iron Heart shirt. The craftsmanship isn’t even remotely close,but then it cost a lot less. The old you get what you pay for.

Let‘s be honest: sooner or later we all will need reading glasses and we all will sooner or later misplace them. For sure there are a lot of straps but as denim lovers, we need a very special strap. After my 777-25 oz was hemmed, I had some leftovers. My wife Susie had the brilliant idea to make a glasses strap out of the leftovers. And she really did a great job! This must be true love….

Maybe another idea for the project RE:LOVE

@Marc2706 cool project and your wife did an awesome job. I love those frames too…mind if I ask what they are?

[Marc2706]

@SKT thanks a lot for your kind words! The frame is from Jaques Marie Mage. As far as I know ithe designer is from France, they are located in Los Angeles but the frames are built in Japan.

633 fit from self edge…. With the doubled up front style….

[truby]

Collaboration with good art, Hollywood

Pendants idea -

Motorcycle tire wheel combo in silver or brass that actually spins. And says Ironheart Motorcycle specialties.

If tire doesn’t work or not your style then some recognizable motorcycle part like a piston. Extra points if it has at least one noise making movement.

Maybe (probably) already proposed - sorry 15K post is just too much for me - but:

21oz Superblack (non-fade) type 3 lined with black wool blend or maybe even with fleece (maybe contrasting color if fleece) + black buttons
Sleeves also lined for a full quasi-winter armor

[goosehd]

@Slash Here’s one in 14oz. https://forum.ironheart.co.uk/topic/12163/ihj-116-blk-14oz-selvedge-denim-fleece-lined-modified-type-iii-jacket-black?_=1756410863657

[Slash]

@goosehd HmmmYeeeeaaaahhh not bad but not superblack though. I was thinking more in line like the last comment in the thread you linked by @Gimli = a more heavy denim than 14oz in any case.
Wool/Alapaca lining would be killer.
Not completely sure etiher about the collar being in fleece/wool/whatever. Would like the "classic" type 3 look with the denim collar but with hidden warmth (debatable, the 14oz you linked looks nice too).

Is this 14oz available anywhere as of today ?

[jmp777]

@Alex @Giles indigo and od apple wristbands would be sick. Slightly wider than say apples own bands and the fading would be amazing.

[jimcord]

The new upcoming chocolate brown duck material would be cool made like the current 666 duck cloth pants. That material gives me sda mud dye vibes.

[EdH]

An overshirt/shirt-jacket/shacket with mechanic-style chest pockets and CPO-style hand warmer pockets.

Typed that and then remembered the 385. Basically, do the 385 again in new fabrics. (I'd like one in a chocolate brown twill of some kind.)

[Oaktavia]

Corduroy bibs in indigo, brown and olive.

[nytimes_gaiden]

@Oaktavia this is a cool idea!

[Kasi]

Wonder when those sbg 21oz bibs coming
