Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?

I'm still in love with the cotton satin fabric used on the IHSH-61. I'd love to see an olive cotton satin western with bronze contrast stitching. It would look awesome and would probably be the most comfortable western out there. The weight is perfect, 9-10oz. You could even do a khaki one too.

An IH type 2 jacket, but not in denim.  My vote would be for one in black cotton duck.

[Giles]

IMO it would not sell.  But I'm open to being convinced otherwise….

[mclaincausey]

I love the idea. Wouldn't buy just because I already have a Type III and a storm rider but it's a cool idea IMO.

@Giles:

Yeah, IIRC there was an IH denim type II from a while back that sold super slowly so I can see why you might take some convincing on this one.  I just love the look of type II's and black goes with everything.

Rising Sun and Stevenson Overall Co. have both made brown duck type II's which, as far as I know, sell pretty well so… who knows?

[Peter]

a type ii in navy/indigo duck would be awesome. possibly lined.. dont need one though, so probably wouldnt buy one.

[mclaincausey]

I think I heart made one as well. That may be where Giles' hypothesis is coming from.

a raw black jean in 21 oz or under preferably 634 cut

[mclaincausey]

With black stitching and hardware to complete the Johnny Cash look?

[Giles]

I made a Triple Works Type II a few years ago.  I loved it, sold like shit….....

Does that mean there are still some knocking around?

It is a great looking jacket.

I'd like to see an IH and Kanye West colab. Haha sorry, I couldn't help myself!

Ubiquitous once a month…..PJ PANTS!!! (Biker Base Layer)

Id like to see that as well. Don't hold your brother I don't see it happening. Please send request to Joe Boxer.

Just thought of something awesome..

18oz. Raw indigo overdyed black PRIOR to denim construction so the weft could still be white  and the warp raw indigo overdyed black. In 634 cut of course

[MikeC]

That wouldn't be an over dyed fabric. Your basically asking for indigo rope dyed thread, then rope dyed in black. I don't think this is possible.

[mclaincausey]

Dye the wrap yarns a bunch of times in indigo and maybe just once in an unstable black dye?

[Chris]

This sounds a lot like like the Red Core, Rainbow Core and Camouflage Core denim that Naked & Famous did a while back.

I suppose it could be interesting, but I bet it would get expensive quick.

Yes, but the oxidation between indigo and black would be long.
