We just received a new flannel and jacket from Iron Heart.
The 21 oz super black selvedge denim hitherto used on a range of jeans is now available in a modified type 3 trucker jacket.
The warp is black sulphur rope dyed and will fade but the weft has been reactive died and will keep its black appearance. Otherwise known as the fade to grey SBG denim.It is longer in the arms than the indigo version of Iron Heart's type 3.The side pockets can be used internally for storage. The jacket features felled internal seams and a selvedge placket detail.
The IHSH-129 is the latest flannel from Iron Heart using an unbrushed 10 oz selvedge fabric.
The indigo is the darker colour in the green check and will fade with wear. The shirt uses the IH black logo permex snaps with a button at the collar.

Clint 16 oz Japanese Selvedge Jeans by Indigofera is the latest straight fit now available at the store. The denim is unsanforized (previously seen in the loomstate denim jacket of the same name). The denim has a crunchy and hefty handle and will develop some great fade pattern with wear. They shrink an inch in the waist but will stretch back out and 2.5" in length post soak.
The latest addition to our range of Pure Blue Japan jeans is the x014 with indigo dyed warp and purple weft. It comes in the same slim tapered fit as the x011/x012/x13.
The denim is super slubby which is appreciated more as it fades. The faded pair below have been worn for a couple of years.
The jeans are unsanforized and feature the trademark embroidered shoai (indigo leaf) emblem on the back pocket along with hidden rivets and deerskin leather patch.

This is a flannel close to our hearts. Back in 2013 it was the first piece we stocked that literally flew off the shelves shifting us up a gear or two in sales and giving us the courage to move from a by appointment basis to a full brick and mortar in Central London. The ivory houndstooth flannel by The Flat Head is so soft and thick they vowed never to make it again as so many shuttles broke on the loom during production.
They thankfully changed their minds and the ivory flannel with navy blue houndstooth design it is back in store in both western and work shirt versions.The shirt has the warmth and substantial feel of wool yet also the softness and comfort of cotton of which it is made. It has a brushed lining, gusset straps and has been washed once so there is no further shrinkage.

The Flat Head Way is part of the SS16 print t shirt collection from The Flat Head THC series with their indestructible triple-stitched collars. They literally never lose their shape. You will long before they do.

Got my Samurai 710DMO hemmed. Which Junior did a great job on. My friend got his first pair of raw denim and went for the 634s with some advice from me and Junior. Tried on the flathead 3012. Which has a savage taper on. Dunno if I could deal with it even after a shrink and hem. Tried on loads of FH shirts. Always love going to the shop and trying stuff on. Anyone visiting London should definitely go there.

It is no secret that we pride ourselves on the quality of our brands and their products that we stock.
Whilst we have no intention of resting on our laurels and are always open to exploring new avenues, it takes something pretty special to makes its way into our stable. It must be of superior quality. It must have style. It should have a common direction and synchronicity with us, our store and the other brands. It should belong. Above all, it must be something we want ourselves!A brand that we feel meets all these requirements and more is Effector eyewear and we are therefore proud to present them to you following their introduction to Rivet & Hide.
Established in 2005, Effector is a Tokyo based eyewear maker, specialising in hand made, top quality sunglasses, using materials such as Acetate and Titanium. Well known for their involvement in collaborations (Lewis Leathers, Rolling Stone, Real McCoys, Neighbourhood) with some of the best of the underground style industry names, their core range is what sets them apart from other eyewear brands.
Taking their inspiration from the ‘Beatnik’, Rock n Roll and aviator styles from across the 50’s and 60’s, before bringing them effortlessly up to date with modern twists and construction, the variations demonstrate the owners’ passion and enthusiasm for this period and its sartorial identity. These timeless frames would be as in keeping for a walk in the park as they would be at the Hidden Garden Party Festival or indeed Greenwich Village of the 60’s or a certain night in the Cavern Club, Liverpool, 1962.
We have carefully selected our favourite styles from this collection, and have included some plain glass options for those in need of adding prescription lenses.
Our styles are:
Lounge – 6mm acetate frame
Mars – 8mm extra thick acetate frame
Delay – Half rimless acetate, with hand finished metal bridge
All available in classic black or tortoiseshell, and
Patton
Which has a titanium frame and teardrop ‘aviator’ style lens.

Imagine the most amazing mandala from the sixties… Imagine a classic William Morris border design... Imagine the best dotwork tattoo you've ever seen. Put that all together, merge it seamlessly and then, using indigo add the design to the best fabrics you can find using discharge printing. Now vary the tones and hues. Now make a shirt, bandana, t shirt and scarf.
Sound impossible? Well, that's exactly what the craftsmen at Pure Blue Japan have managed to achieve.
Named 'Komon' as a reference to kimonos and the ancient art of indigo dying that was involved in their construction, these items are an absolute joy to anyone with any interest in the process.

Two new denim shirts from Pure Blue Japan arrived with the Komon collection. The "knub" selvedge denim is a textured lightweight 5 oz fabric ideal for the warmer months and come in both western and work shirt iterations. Rope-dyed indigo with an uneven face, they promise to age nicely with wear and washing. Like the "Komon" shirts they have been rinsed once so shrinkage is minimal. They feature the "shoai" indigo plant leave emblem on the lower side seam.

We have just received the x017 slim tapered and x018 slim straight jeans from Pure Blue Japan. The denim has a rope-dyed indigo warp and the weft has been dyed cobalt blue. The fabric is characteristically slubby. The deep blue tone on the face of the denim is achieved by the cobalt blue dyed weft. The tonal stitching makes this a super smart jean when new but worn hard the fades come through with high contrast.

We have added the stunning 8" Engineer to our growing collection of Viberg boots and not before time.
Built on the 2005 last, this vintage inspired take on the classic motorcycle boot uses Horween black chromexcel leather featuring a full stitchdown construction, cat's paw heel, Vibram sole and natural mid-sole.
They look incredible beaten up after a few months wear. You don't need a Harley to wear these boots. Just the right attitude.

New for spring is the Iron Heart modified Trucker with hand warming pockets in the 17 oz duck fabric made especially for this jacket. The jacket has felled seams and bronze hardware and will match up very nicely with virtually any jeans.
We also have the new loopwheeled "extra heavy denim" printed T sjirt.

We are constantly impressed with how Hiut Denim communicates its story. The mission to bring specialist manufacturing back to their small corner of Wales resonates with many and with that they introduce new people to the joys of raw selvedge denim.
We now have the SkinR fit in the 14 oz Kuroki selvedge. It is super slim all the way from thigh to hem. Probably the slimmest jeans in the store.
We have also restocked the selvedge jeans in both the regular and slim fits.

Urban, edgy, relaxed, smart, casual, classic. These terms, although appearing contradictory, can all be used to describe the offerings from Rogue Territory. After their initial beginnings making bespoke denim, their reputation as master craftsmen with a keen eye for cut and detail grew and soon the demand for their work became so great that the only solution was a ready to wear to range. Made with sharp silhouettes, clean lines and superior fabrics we are looking forward to introducing this great brand to the streets of London and beyond.
http://rivetandhide.com/brands/rogue-territory.html
Ranger Jacket - Indigo Selvedge Canvas
The Ranger Jacket in ISC (Indigo Selvedge Canvas) is launched for spring 2016. It has been custom woven to RGT’s specifications and solely for RGT. Taking its inspiration from the classic Baracuta G9, this is the definition of smart casual. Made in downtown LA from a 11 oz Japanese selvedge fabric, this jacket features: handwarmer side pockets and inside pocket, Brass YKK MIJ zip, horn cuff buttons and has a gusseted shoulder construction.
SK 12.5 oz Tinted Weft Jeans
Of course there is denim… In this case the SK tinted weft. The ideal denim for warmer weather this dials in at 12.5 oz and is loomed at the famed Nihon Menpu mill in Okayama, Japan. The SK is a super-slim, mid rise fit, generous but not loose in the top block narrowing through & below the knee and finishing with a narrow hem. Complete with all the details RGT denim is known for – lasso stitch on the rear pockets, hidden pen pocket in rear pocket, cotton twill pocket bags and fly lining, natural leather patch with hand branded hawk feather motif – these are perfect for those who enjoy a smart, trim silhouette.
Officer Trousers - Olive
For those situations where your denim just isn’t appropriate or when you just fancy switching your Jeans game up, there are the Officer Trousers. Slim with a taper, these 8 oz twill classic 5 pocket chinos come in olive green and feature details such as: single needle continuous stitch waistband, slash front pockets, belt loops sewn into the waistband, silk screen printed pocket bags and to top the whole thing off, a solid white ‘selvedge’ line.
Blue Bird Coach's Jacket
For something a little different and classically ‘stateside’ there is RGT’s take on the Coach's Jacket. Constructed from water repellent 10 oz canvas with banded cuffs and deep handwarmer pockets, this jacket is as functional as it is stylish.
Natural Indigo SS Work Shirt
Just in time for the UK it seems is a short sleeve work shirt. The fabric is a 6 oz combination of hemp and cotton, which has been hank-dyed using natural indigo. This combination gives a real depth of colour even though the shade is light and a crunchy feel reminiscent of linen. Incorporating triple needle chain stitch seams with run offs and with a placket cut on selvedge, this is a great fitting shirt that will only improve with wear.
Supply Jacket - 15 oz Stealth Black
We would not consider our collection complete without including the jacket for which RGT is quite rightly renowned. The Supply Jacket, using a 15 oz black selvedge denim once again from Nihon Menpu, is a modern interpretation of the classic denim jacket. The placket and interior pocket are all cut from selvedge and the seams are chainstitched. The outside has both hand warmer pockets and a chest pocket which are welted, waist cinch tabs and cross feather branded matte black buttons. The finish and lines on this jacket are precise and clean and the fit spot on. It’s no wonder that this jacket has a fiercely loyal and every growing following.
