      The Japanese obsession with Americana?  I dunno.  Personally, I'd like to see a bit more stuff with Japanese kanji instead.

        I tend to agree with you on that one Chris.  I have a bunch of my own theories.  Another one being to appeal to the masses.  I find it funny that they use so much English when most of them can barely speak it and vice versa.

          Most Japanese can speak English far better than us from the US/ UK can speak Japanese, they're all taught English to a basic level at school, but in my experience there is some shyness about using their English to someone who speaks it a their native language.

          I think that certainly most denim companies are strongly influenced in their designs by the old school heavy hitter denim brands like Levi's, Wrangler and Lee, including the labelling. Most of this stems from the clothing and styles worn by the occupying GI's after WWII.

            Has anyone had trouble getting through the airport scanner while wearing Iron Heart denim?

            I flew roundtrip from ABQ to Dallas wearing my SR's and was patted down at both airports.  The two individuals who performed the security check said that the reason was probably my jeans.  One was mumbling to himself, "These things are thick!  They probably couldn't see through all these creases."

              i had it once…but i just heard the security said something like..."damn, are those still jeans or what!?" 😉
              the only thing i had "problems" with is with wearing boots during the security check. i had to take´em (Red Wing GT & Yuketen Johnson) of after the scanner made some noice! 🙂

                Here in the states we get to remove our shoes EVERY time we go through security. SO much fun.

                  AND they make you stand with your feet inside the yellow outlines on the mat, so disgusting.  Just think of how many sloppy people's fungusy feet have been in that exact same spot wearing sweaty socks…EWWWW.

                  I try to stand on the sides of my feet to make as little contact with the mat as possible.  Lovely world we live in.

                    You and me both! Oh and I always wears my non-hemmed jeans while traveling so that I can cover my feet with the denim while walking without shoes.

                        Just noticed that both the white chambray work shirts are listed as Endangered. Are they going to be replaced with westerns? Or will there be another version of the work shirts coming?

                        And will any replacement be Extant?

                        Might need a decent white shirt in the next few months…

                            What's the black shirt in this photo??

                            Edit. While I'm here and in a questioning  frame of mind… IH-V's 02, 03 and 04 are up. What will IH-V 01 be?? Black Duck?

                            Also, the Duck Vest is the only one priced at the moment. Will they all be the same price??

                            This is all I need to know for now ( IH related).

                              It looks like IHSH-33 - Indigo

                                Blimey! The TW 05 is a lot lighter then. I thought for a wild moment it could be a new black denim shirt.

                                    Ah, cheers so Black Duck will probably be IH-V 05 then??

                                      Ther is no black duck (at least that I know of).  There is the grey twill/black duck version IHV-04
