      @MikeC:

      Just wondering MM, what's your beef with Brooklyn?  If you ask me, if you want real, go to BK, if you are a Custy who is fake, kick it in Manhattan. That's just me though.

      PS I'm pretty sure building MSG went down the same way back in the day with regards to Eminent Domain.

      no beef with Brooklyn, I love the place.  I find it doesn't matter where I go, good folks are good folks & the rest are what ever you want to call them.  location has nothing to do with it, folks just identify with different things.  having to think about my rant gives me a headache, but let's do it any way.

      in regard to MSG, it is a pretty soul-less place with little to no character. hard seeing the same happen to the planet of Brooklyn

      @MikeC:

      They have also revitalized a lot of it. Personally, I'll take a few lights over Section 8 housing any day.

      guess we look at "revitalize" differently.  i don't see the housing that was part of the plan, i see the mom & pops pushed out by the rising rents (could name some but with no point of reference or connection to the place it's meaning less), i see a lot of restaurants & clubs opening that don't really pay a living wage & i saw the land grab Ratner did & how he was able to buy folks out under value & beat out Extell (i think that's the name) the other company bidding to build at the Atlantic yards with some bull$hit.

      i could continue, but i just look at it as a lot of lights in one section usually are a distraction to what's really going on. something about all that glitters aint gold, or you can polish a turd all you want, it's still just a shiny piece of sh!t

              still looks like a great place buddy…the balcony is dope, from what i can tell and the big room incl. the open kitchen is a plus in my eyes!

                                i don´t know what im thinking about the evolution @ ironheart!
                                IH is a Denim and Workwear/Motorcycle brand…but when i see the products how this jacket or the IHJ-08
                                PrimaLoft™ Quilted Nylon Jacket....i think this is the wrong way.

                                only my opinion but i know other guys here think the same as me....and this can be the reason why aeroleather end the collaboration with IH...maybe one reason

                                IH must be go back to their old mind!
                                DENIMDENIMDENIM and WORKWEAR!

                                  Nothing whatsoever to do with the Aero Leather relationship.

                                  Haraki wears the IHJ-08 and IH-535 on his bike.  He did 2,900 Kms the week before last wearing that outfit.

                                  Haraki and I make stuff that we like (and in the main, think that you will too).  If we don't like it you do not have to buy it.

                                      Of course not.  But since he received them he has worn them for at lest one massive trip.  The 535 is specifically designed to be worn over leathers if that is what you need to keep waterproof…

                                      And let me make something clear.  We are not a repro brand.  We look to the past for inspiration, but look to the now to improve.

                                        anyway….IH is a DENIM and WORKWEAR brand and not a  outdoor or fashion brand.
                                        the IH-535 Pertex Shield" Waterproof/Breathable Shell looks like this

                                          And I will be wearing the IHJ-08 and the IH-535 when I go skiing, a perfect combo

                                            I guess it's for Haraki-san to fill out the specifics of his brand, Alex…
