    Having a place to share our passion makes this hobby all the more enjoyable.  Thanks to the old mods for their part in making this possible and cracking choices for the new blood! 
    Now to test their mettle 😉

                Congrats to all the new Mods and thank you for your service to the retiring Mods.

                Perhaps this should go under "random rants", but I figured since there was talk of the forum in general and its future in this thread, I would use this as a venue to voice my two cents. If this is deemed inappropriate, new Mods feel free to remove (not that you need my permission to do your job 🙂 )

                A few years back, after watching the documentary "The True Cost", I made it my mission to buy clothing responsibly. I was always very away of they style and look of my clothing, but never really where or how it was made. Red Wings, vintage made USA clothing, and RRL (at least the USA made collections), really introduced me to quality and craftsmanship in terms of clothing and an obsession began.

                Then one day about two and half years ago while looking for some heavier weight denim (and to be honest, I cannot even remember what I was searching for or what Google rabbit hole I went into) I came across Iron Heart. And I was intrigued. While I was a little questioning of a $400 price tag, I was very interested in the 25oz XHS (I mean how could anyone not be, the description says it caused needles in the sewing process to explode for Christ's sake!) and I decided to pull the trigger. Axel talked me through the process (more like held my hand 🙂 - best customer service on the planet) and before I knew it, I had my first pair of IH denim (still have, and is my favorite pair). Little did I know my life would be changed.

                I am not exaggerating when I say the forum changed my life. At first I was a little bit confused about what it was and I was even nervous to contribute. After all, there seemed to be a pretty close knit community already in place. As I began to read through the various threads I found there were people from all over the world from all walks of life, some forum legends whose reputations were well known, there were people people who had a wealth of knowledge regarding all things wearable, there veterans who had been buying IH since it was still just TW, some who have disappeared, and then of course there were all the variety of names (some of you guys have some really fuckin' weird ones :)). All this to say, there was a lot going on and it was a little intimidating for an IH "newbie" like me.

                But one day, I just decided to contribute to a conversation, and I was welcomed. And then I decided to contribute to another, and I was welcomed. And this happened over and over and over again until I had made connections with so many of you people that I felt a part of this community and am on the forum on a daily basis. And being a part of this community means so much to me. To have a place where we can share our passion, and ask questions, and have input in what IH is doing, it has solidified my loyalty to IH and allowed me to connect with people I would have never connected with.

                Its funny cause sometimes my wife will jokingly say things like "Why don't you go ask your friends on the forum"?

                So thank you Mods for all you have done and continue to do to make this a place for people like us. Thank you IHUK crew for being the best goddamn crew I have ever had the pleasure of interacting with. Thank you Giles (and H) for your infinite patience, answering all our questions (even when you have already done so…in the thread...three pages ago :)), and keeping IH the world-class outfit it is.

                And thank you to all the members here who contribute once in awhile or everyday. I am grateful to have found you all and am even more grateful you have allowed me to contribute and be a part of the community.

                Aside from the clothing (which is obvious), I feel the forum is key to what makes IH great and truly unique, in my experience.

                Ok - rant done  😎

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

                  Very nice @Dstauffer !!

                  The forum is a tool that most definitely makes IH a living, breathing brand.  The daily interaction from the whole crew combined with the information they provide as far as what is going on with the brand, upcoming releases, the "what do you think we should make" thread, etc…makes IH one of a kind and allows all of us to keep our finger on the IH pulse.  Not to mention the amazing customer service.

                  Great post @Dstauffer

                      Excellent post @Dstauffer [emoji122]

                      It really is a great read. But you do know what a rant is, Dan? Glorious post but a terrible rant [emoji1]

                      It pretty much mirrors my experience from 3-4 years back too. I remember the first time I made a joke at the expense of a certain shaven headed Belgian. I got so nervous that I'd crossed a line that I had to PM him to see if I'd hurt his feelings. He hadn't even seen it. And he doesn't have any feelings.

                                It's a running gag in my house/workplace (why wife and I work for the same organization) that I only have one feeling, and it's directly related to when was the last time I ate.

                                I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

                                  ^ low blood sugar is the direct cause of 80% of the arguments in my house. Of course my wife would contend that I am the cause of 100% of them.

                                      Spending some time with @Chris  at the Kanreki, I realised how much I missed him as a Mod.  I told him so. and he said that he'd be happy to come back….

                                      I checked with the other mods and the consensus was that as long as the tosser changed his avatar, he would be welcomed back with open arms.

                                      Thanks Chris....

                                        That's great news - let's just hope this does NOT mean he'll go back to posting only twice a month though… Cause, and this is very hard for me to say, I enjoy reading his posts …

                                        Now excuse me whilst I go throw up for an hour or two...
