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

@Giles how about a Cone mills collaboration? An IH exclusive Cone fabric in the 18-21oz range is a cool thought to me. I don't know of any cone fabric heavier than 16oz but I could be wrong. Heck even something in the 16-18oz range would be cool if it was an IH/Cone collab.

Can't see that happening. Haraki selects mills for their technical prowess and how alligned the mill owners views, philosophy and principles are to his. He spends a shit load of time developing new stuff with the people he trusts and once a new denim is in production he visits the mill extremely regularly (in the case of the first run of 25oz, he practically lived at the mill helping combat the technical difficulties). He considers the mill owners, many of whom are 2 man bands his friends. Let's leave Cone for others…..Nothing wrong with it of course, but I suspect not for us....

ah, I see. I shouldn't be surprised (and I'm not really) that H shows that level of dedication and attention to detail. Very cool. The commitment and diligence by everyone at IHUK/IHJP is one of the things I love about this brand.

All the Cone denim I've had (only two pairs) have been quite boring im (not very) ho.
I hear that quite often and I agree some of the 12oz cone fabrics are a bit boring but IMHO there is nothing like a classic pair of cone denim jeans in the 14-16oz range. They still look great in an understated way and just scream classic americana. A pair of chucks, some cone jeans, and a white T always stands the test of time.

We have created the new 18oz vintage denim specifically to give vintage Levi's/Cone mills type fades…..
Very nice. Those are looking good from what I've seen so far.

You just listed all your favourite things in one item, didn't you? I love it.

I know the answer to this request but like to ask It at least Once a year.
Sherpa lined modified trucker with lined pockets.
Maybe the new 14oz would lend itself to this rather than the 21oz…..

Pretty much…

An IH take on a simple, classic work trouser (similar to a chino but maybe slant front pockets instead of slash), with the patch back pockets instead of welt. Maybe w/ a button on the back pocket as well. I don't wear as many traditional 5 pocket jeans anymore, but this in duck or even denim would be my grail pant.

Whipcord vests. Any color. I'll buy them all.

Excellent point. I meant to say more formal whipcord vests not designed for cold weather.
