The Flat Head

[daynym]

Weren´t so sure about keeping this fh type 2. I always have in mind that I want to wear my IH od jacket, but this weekend  I started to break this jacket in at a concert in Wiesbaden. The denim compared to my 21 oz jacket feels a bit thin, but it is super hairy. What can I say. I like it and looking very much forward the time breaking it in.

You should definitely keep the jacket. It's a great fit on you. If you need any inspiration for wearing it more, I refer you to the following:

Thank you. Also for posting the link to the website. This jacket looks great!
Btw, is there any info about wear and washes?

Can someone help me out. I want to buy a flathead denim shirt, and would like to know if they will stain whatever you are wearing under it?

I wear a lot of pretty expensive t-shirts and want to wear it over them for the spring/summer season.

Yeah, they'll stain….And then wash out.....

Worn for two years and washed 9 times.

Thanks for the info. Does Iron Heart or any other brand make a duck selvedge shirt? The closest shirt I could find is the IHSH-56.

[Giles]

We don't (yet).  The IHSH-56 is not selvedge though…..

Yeah…. I believe I'd have to proxy from rakuten and don't really know how to do that... At least that is what I have understood from my reading... Thanks tho rocket... Hopefully I can figure it out

[rocket]

never ordered from that store, but looks to me that they are ready to ship right to you with out the need of a proxy…

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you can order directly from them,j just write them an email in simple english, which you also translate into Japanese

[tatmantall]

ok. thanks guys! BF you said write it in simple english and then translate to japanese.. Is there an app/service that is best for this?  I've been hesitant on several tings from rakuten because i was always under the impression that a proxy was needed. Gonna give it a whirl. Thank you both

If you're thinking about buying from the store rocket linked to, (2nd) I'm pretty sure you won't need a proxy.  I know they do lots of international business and are willing to ship directly.

[rocket]

if you don't have a question, you can normaly just put the stuff in the cart and order…

usual it works like, (for the shops with the "we welcome foreign buyers" logo, see left side of the link) you put the stuff in the cart, checkout and they will email you to confirm your order or not, if they run out of stock, what happen, you pay and they ship directly to you...

yep you can order direct…

[beautiful_FrEaK]

you can use their rakuten check out (you have to register at rakuten for that I think) or just write them an email directly (that's how I always order fromn Japan).

Just translate with google translate..worked so far every time and I bought 2 or 3 jeans from them

I think I will hold out for that.

Just ordered a FH t-shirt from 2nd. The yen is really cheap right now, went down $2 from yesterday. $70 for a FH tee is a great deal I think.
