      Been looking forward to this arriving.
      Where do I start?
      The leather is off the scale in terms of quality and feel.The finish is perfect and really takes Iron heart to the top of the tree for this kind of jacket. The zip is the same quality and looks like it will last forever plus a few extra years for good luck!
      For me one of the best things is that its ready to wear and needs zero breaking in which is a massive bonus. The leather is supple.
      Its clever that the belt is made from a different leather. This means it will last as long as the jacket its self and not stretch.
      The price of this jacket makes it one of the highest value items for the brand. I use the term high value but not expensive.
      This  jacket is going to be worn on a daily basis as my winter wear and will last for years. I think it will age really well and the style means it will always be a bit of a classic. So on that basis its going to be value for money. Its not item an to leave in the wardrobe.
      It needs wearing and more importantly enjoying.

      I am not strange. I'm just not normal!

                      You're wearing it for your own joy not for someone else's.

                          While I know they're not good photos, they are the best selfies I could inspire myself to capture. I took 3 and I'll give you the best 2. 5'11" 185lbs sz xl plenty of the room to move around. This jacket is even nicer than I imagine. Hopefully somebody gets inspired to take a chance on one, I don't think you will be dissaoiinted. In fact I think you'll be very happy!

                            @Cfk87 looking boss as fuck dude! Seriously that jacket looks killer on you!!

                            I don't think there is a thing that IH does that isn't spectacular, but their leather is especially outstanding.

                            Well done sir!

                            You won’t be satisfied until you wear Iron Heart.

                                    @Dstauffer @neph93 @rocket @Appfaff  Thank you all for the kind words. I thought I looked lame in a mirror selfie as usual, but wanted people to be able to see this jacket on. It's an incredible piece and I'm looking forward to the weather cooling down so I can use it a lot.

                                      I feel your mirror selfie pain as I'm reliant on them myself and they never do any outfit justice. But you did right. Great to see the jacket out in the wild.

                                          What would Jesus wear?
