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

[Chris]

One of the things that led me to Iron Heart years ago was my dismay over jeans that were made out of such lightweight fabric that they no longer felt like jeans should feel.  11.5 oz may be great for shirts and jackets, but I think that's a bit insubstantial for jeans.

Probably been mentioned before, but how about a IHTL-1213 in red?

@Giles:

@Nomad No probs.  That's what this thread is for - ideas, any ideas…..

Exactly, what I should have wrote was 'something like this' 

[UnTucked]

Any possibility for more IHV-02 fabric options? An over-dyed denim, or a denim like the SBG

Possible…..

[madmonday]

doing a 711 cut in that fabric would be pretty cool.

maybe somebody else mentioned that already

@Giles:

Marvelous! Your personal IHV-02DD has shown the possibilities… Heavy fading denim is the next logical iteration

I mentioned it in the IHSH-140 thread: 

@FurattoHeddo:

I vote to use the denim for a 711 chino cut.

true that!

Could a chambray shacket be made without quilting? I would love a nice lightweight shacket for summer. Would there be enough substance there to keep it from looking like a shirt from Tender?

I don't necessarily disagree. 14 oz is most likely the lightest I'd be interested in, but if any brand can change my mind it's Iron Heart.

A CPO Jacket with ombre pattern would be awesome … in brown, grey / charcoal or blue

19 Lefty Beatle Busters?

I realise Haraki-San's inspirations are primarily American and Japanese, but given there's undeniably some British DNA in the IH operation I think @Giles should try to explain the concept of the great British donkey jacket to Haraki. An IH donkey jacket in Melton Wool with a red flannel lining and leather shoulder/back patch would be the absolute dog's 'nads. @Danny RnH do you feel me?

^^ Now that would be an absolute winner, both I and DH would love to see that made… Brilliant idea

I know, right? I grew up in L'pool and got one off my mates Dad who worked on the docks. One of the greatest jackets I've ever had. And it's truly iconic workwear too.

DH when he was a rude boy up north in Sheffield was into his donkey jacket, sta prest and monkey boots ! British Heritage Piece [emoji4]

[Danny RnH]

@neph93 Interesting idea. Not just an iconic piece of work wear but one with strong political overtones in 80s Britain

Very true. I got my first one from a striking docker in Liverpool at the start of the 90's, wore it with pride at many a AFA/ANL event. If IH make one someone should let Corbyn know

Great idea! I am looking for years on the Simmonsbilt Donkey Jacket.
But I´d love to see the pockets in a kind of IH style!
