Fuck yeah. I LOVE my 801s but think I'll prefer the slimmer version… Why am I buying jeans for spring/ summer by the way?.. Memo to Seul HQ (wherever that is based): buy lightweight ducks, wear for 4-5 months!..

I hope the TW straight cut ducks are still happening! Double knees are not my thing, and same goes to the devilish cut..

@Giles:

I have been asked questions recently that have made me a little concerned about what members think that they can and can't do on this forum.

I would like to make it abundantly clear that questions about sizing/fit pics/discussions about other brands of jeans are welcome here.

I happen to represent Iron Heart, but that does not mean I have no interest in other brands. There are a load of other brands out there that I have the utmost respect for. I have spent a silly amount of money on other denim brands whilst I have been in the Far East, that's because I have a love for all (well most) things denim. I am fascinated in different denims, different cuts and different approaches to construction. It may be merely a pair of 5 pockets of jeans to some, but to me (and I believe most of our members), it is so much more.

If this forum is to add value to the greatest number of people, it should embrace other brands and interests too. The more people we have contributing and finding this a useful place to be, the better it will be for all of us.

So please feel free to discuss any other brand you want to, I'll take it personally if you don't.

Giles

Not to rehash this, but I've been thinking about this post and the broader issue of the balance between this being an Iron Heart forum and the discussion of other brands. I just wanted to say that I appreciate Giles clarifying that this is a place for discussion of all things denim and that all views, if expressed thoughtfully, politely and respectfully, are welcome.

Personally, I think it's healthy for a forum to have some variation in perspective. I've participated in some other brand specific forums and it seems like they always devolve into a "love it or leave it" type devotion. In the long run, I don't think that's good. Part of what makes IH special is the fact that Giles and Haraki solicit our opinions and feedback on what we like, dislike, want, etc. and then actually pay attention to what we think. When there are only IH devotees, that viewpoint gets narrowed, and the feedback becomes less useful. Constructive criticism and objective evaluation makes a brand grow and get better; slavish devotion doesn't.

Anyway, the point of my meandering post is that I hope this forum will continue to make everyone feel welcome, whether they own all, some, or even none of Iron Heart's products.

Thanks,
Chris
