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

[Giles]

The cord we are using for the western I don't think would be suitable for a jacket.  The cord we used for the 6526's was s double weave cord, so was massively windproof and very hardwearing, the indigo dyed cord we are using for  the western shirts is a single weave…..

Bring the cord type III back in a modified cut with handwarmers!

Yes, more cords all around. Would love to see the western cord in colors other than indigo.

The issue is minimums.  H (usually) designs the fabrics from first principles, thus the minimums are large.  It's not just a matter of popping down to Costco and coming back with enough fabric for 60 shirts…..

IHSH-08SBG Vest. Looks badass. Maybe 21oz SBG?

Are you thinking IHV-02 style or type III style? If the former, and with brass hardware then OHMYGODYES. Super black would also be more than acceptable.

Don't know if this would be applicable to the IH brand, but if are throwing out ideas of what we would like to see made and would wear, I would LOVE to see an IH heavy weight hoodie in a classic camo pattern.

I have one that I have worn for years but it is definitely not a heavy weight cotton and is starting to get pretty beaten up.

Anyways, given the recent black hoodie release, I thought I'd throw this idea in the ring. Don't know if its feasible or it would even appeal to the IH audience, but I know I would wear the shit out of it!

Cheers

I think you should put suspender buttons on all pants. They dont cause any inconvenience for those who dont need them while being a blessing for those who do.

[JCMx800]

Iron Heart Jeans has great beltloops, sometimes they are soon into waistband. Ever thought about a belt? They are available from IH, too…

Can´t imagine wearing Jeans with those extra buttons, must be super uncomfy when you wear a belt.

DIY: One can add suspender buttons pretty easily if needed.

[Chris]

Suspenders buttons are definitely uncomfortable when you're wearing a belt.  I'd be surprised if even 10% of IH owners wear suspenders, too.

[HHPI]

I like suspenders for gardening, maintenance work in- and around the house, basically any physical labour that involves bending/kneeling a lot. Suspenders are way more comfy for this kind of activity. Have sewn buttons onto two pairs of 21oz already and it works great. Just not a big fan of sewing myself. Honestly - can't feel the buttons when I wear the pants with belt. Not even a tiny bit actually.

I honestly think that is your only way forward here. Buttons for braces/suspenders are just not part of the IH aesthetic as I understand it. Much more of a heritage/vintage thing.
