      I understand your gripe @Matty123 but honestly Iron Heart is the most "western friendly" japanese brand that I am aware of in terms of fit.

        I know and I Really appreciate that about them. Guess I need to downsize… 😉

        Maybe so. Maybe not

          @Matty123 if you are local to an Iron Heart vendor, maybe trying a shirt on might change your mind . . . or prove your point.

          The work shirts do tend to be roomier & from time to time some shirts are freakishly big (none come to mind at the moment but will edit when I think of one).

          Oh & sorry if I'm just throwing salt in the wound

          Now on to my question of the week


          Can someone point me in the direction of some nice suspenders that won't look weird with work pants/jeans (I know subjective)?  I'm not sure why (besides wanting to look like Mork & Gallagher), but I want suspenders for a pair of work pants & maybe a pair of jeans.

          please & thanks in advance

              where do you guys who live in the states send your IH jeans to get hemmed?  Railcar?  SelfEdge?  any other options?  I've never had a pair hemmed before but I've got a few pairs that need it.

                  I like to use Blue in Green. Very fast and they have always done a good job.

                  I'm located on the east coast, so maybe that's why I get them done and back so fast. I'm hesitant to use anyone else now due to having to wait.

                      Thanks for the input @yinzer.

                      my main concern is that I want the thread color to match the original IH thread.  It may sound like a silly detail but it's important to me.

                        Where do you keep your phone? I've always had it in my back pocket, but the damn things are getting bigger each year and won't fit anymore..

                          I didn't get a new phone for years, but when I did last year I was shocked by how big they got. My FC Type II is the only jacket with pockets big enough to fit the phone and be buttoned up. I also find the inner pockets of the IH Type IIIs and the SH 105 very useful. But I don't have an alternative for the backpockets when I just wear a T-Shirt.

                              @Giles ( and anyone else who cares to Chime in) Has IH ever considered making a broken twill denim? I've always liked the look. I have an old  non-selvedge broken twill denim jacket that I keep Around for posterity. In my 40 years of wearing jeans. I have uknowingly purchased a few pair of broken twill jeans and They've been some of  My favorites. Just wanted your thoughts.

                              Maybe so. Maybe not

                                I've thought of it (and get reminded often that @Chris has thought of it too).  I put it to H once and got zero interest, I will try again in May when I am with him….

                                  Are there going to be more plain 7.5 oz loopwheeled Tees or only editions with prints?

                                          Natural indigo warp, sexy-soft IH 21 oz weft. Kind of like double indigo. But the natural indigo weft so the fabric doesn't appear purple in sunlight.

                                            @Giles what is the preferred cut of the man himself, Mr. H San?

                                            I assume your's is the 666?

                                            Just curious.
