    Want a laugh?…....

    Shoque was looking through some old stuff and found the first iteration of the new Iron Heart web site which we launched a year or 2 ago.....

      No screens of the very first IH UK site?.. I remember browsing that… It was a bit, how shall I put this, basic…

        Yeah, I have them.  I worked on the basic-is-good principle…..

          Thing is: I thought it was some kind of crazy Russian brand for some reason… Was eyeing the rider jackets back then... This was at least a year before the forum started though... Apparently I was an eejit back then as well...

            Here we go Seul: http://nostalgia.ironheart.co.uk/

            It's the latest version of the old page before we switched to the new shop system/design.

              God I am embarrassed, but you know what I'm even more embarrassed that I loved that site…....

                  Hahahaha, well put.

                  But to be honest, it wasn't that bad, I mean, the colors did match, and it had a structure which was quite easy to navigate. The new design is only a fraction of why the new system is better (customer database, cc-processing, …)

                    nice memories…
                    remember some SF members asking... "this site is legit...?"
                    to G, about the SF member who has started the thread #iron heart# on SF named "Guy H".
                    is it possible to know more about him?
                    is it an active member here?
                    really simple curiousity. really.
                    this GUY influenced a lot my...the style of my garderobe!!:)

                        Loved that old webpage, so very basic indeed, remember there was one particular page with a meticulous how-to-soak SR denim guide (with pics), is that still accessible somewhere?

                            Thanks … What strikes me is that the choices to make were a little easier back then lol, there's probably ten times as much too choose from now ...

                              You should have seen it on day 1.

                              It was one product page with:

                              IH-634S
                              IH-634
                              IH-461
                              IH-1461
                              IH-1634
                              IH-526J
                              IH-527J

                              That was it…...
