Introduce Yourself Here

[elf_sedge]

Hey dudes. Just grabbed my first IH's so figured I'd sign up here. Current denim collection includes: Samurai 710xx (DWC pair), ONI 527, N&F 32oz, Imperial SExI14, 3sixteen type 3S and the IH-666-21s! May decide to enter the IH's for DWC as well. I'm on sufu as mp201 and reddit as elf_sedge! glad to be here.

Hi all.  Thought I'd introduce myself and say hello.  Pretty new to the forum and to Iron Heart in general, but am learning!  666s, 526Jod and the doomed 101tg so far (already planning what to replace the 101 with), and I live in Bristol in the UK.  Wanted to join in before lurking too long and it got awkward!  Cheers

Hi Everyone!  I made my first Iron Heart purchase the other day; some IH-816's in navy.

My initial impressions are they're very well made, from the best materials, and should last for as long as I can fit in them.  10/10 - will likely get the816s in brown and/or khaki, too.  I'm fairly well stocked with raw denim at the moment (Left Field x4, Japan Blue, & 3Sixteen), but I might pick up a pair of 634S in the fall.  In the meantime, I'll likely pick up some shirts, too.

Yes, indeed.  I discovered /r/rawdenim and /r/goodyearwelt last year, and my wallet hasn't been the same since then.

Yeah, that was me (different username, obviously)!    I'm loving my chinos.

Yeah … that's definitely an addiction!
I need (at least) once a month a new fix of garments or shoes, etc. - otherwise I get jittery and moody.
My wallet hates me and I quit all my other hobbies and broke with my family and all the social contacts ...
O.k. - the last words are a joke (partly)

I'm feeling your pain….and also laughing at the incredibly enabling nature of the IH forum. We are all more or less in the same boat [emoji57]

Likewise - I consider it my (expensive) hobby, which I get to enjoy on a daily basis, by wearing nice clothes/shoes.  I also enjoy the pursuit of new purchases, and I appreciate the craftsmanship of a well-made garment.

My expensive hobby used to be cars & tools - now it's clothes/shoes.
