      Spent some time lurking.  My assessment after looking through a number of IH and other brands threads…..  There seems to be a lot more complaining about pricing than I see on other forums.  IH is one of the more popular brands to talk about on the forum (3rd highest in brand specific posts) so price complaining seems to be a bit more prevalent considering the other very popular brands are Gustin, Lawless, and Taylor Stitch.

      I've never understood why someone would take even a moment to make a post complaining about the price of something.  Especially when you know very little, if anything, about the actual business and production costs.  At the end of the day it just has zero benefit to the thread.

      Not to mention one of the most frequent posters hates IH (his signature is 'Forever IH Free').  Also don't understand how someone prides themselves on having an identity that is against a single brand.

        Simple, personal beef !

        The other brands popularised over much of the forum are domestic, use stock or roll end denim and have little to no retailer network (certainly not comparable to IH).

        I also did some lurking and think the forum vibe is actually pretty cool, a lot of the guys on there are obviously newer to the denim scene and understandably have questions, which is great. I might actually sign up and read a little deeper over there as it seems like an interesting developing community.

          I will not let this turn into an internet cage match between forums.  If people cannot discuss the topic respectfully, I will delete posts.  Again.

            damn I missed the deleted posts  😠

            rhetorical question, well more like a wish that I couldn't figure out where to place on the interwebs

            Iron Heart pattern & quality of a pair of 555 or maybe 777 (haven't tried em yet  :-[), with the wild denim of say oni or pbj would be perfect for me.

            I've had more pairs of Iron Heart jeans then I care to admit & the build quality & cuts 9 times out of 10 are very well suited for me.  The denims I see coming out of other brands are sometimes incredible, but when I put them on I'm almost always disappointed in the way the denim is constructed into a pair of jeans 😞 😞

            I've high hopes for the 777 in that new lighter weight denim & the push into "other" denims in general sbg, that grey . . . .

                I'm looking forward the the lighter weight 777's,
                ( @Giles  will they be the same as the V1 measurements?).

                  No,  V1 was a mistake and turned out too similar to the 555, that is why we changed the pattern….

                    Thank you. (Hmm, that IH-GV will have to be redeemed elsewhere).

                      @Giles - Within one year, what can we realistically expect the 777 cut to be released in? If that's even possible to answer.. Thinking mostly about the 18oz (Indigo and Double Indigo) as well as the DD.

                        That's as far as I have planned…..

                                    All three are great choices for the 777, I might hop on the 14oz as I already have the other two denims. What's the approximate eta on the 14oz G?
