Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
-
All next seasons UHF fabric has been accounted for I am afraid. I'm wary of denim work pants. I know they were duck and non-selvedge, but the IH-816DD did not do nearly as well as I expected (read, crap)
As you saw, I love mine!
A workshirt or workshacket would be great, but I know the DD jackets sold slowly as well.
Sadly enough, I bet they all would have sold better if they had a selvedge ID

I’m sure you’re right. I feel like a lot of people are getting past the need for selvedge and recognising that great fabrics don’t have to be narrow loom to be great. But that development came a little late for the DD.

I can’t find the pic on here, but I know you shared it at some point G, but after wearing the IHJ-35 pretty regularly, I would love to see a version made in natural. Something about that natural color that is so appealing.
I really like this vintage Bates jacket. An IHJ-54 in this colour scheme (natural body, teacore arms) would be good.
-
I also love my IH-816DD, (I’ll forever regret not buying a second pair!), but think they were misunderstood by most people which contributed to the poor sales - even as a diehard IH fan, I took a bit of a gamble buying them since I really wasn’t sure that denim would look good in the 816 cut, but I trusted @Giles vision and glad that I did.
I’d be really interested in seeing another denim work pant, based on the 888 or 816 cuts, and in the 18oz or 21oz. -
Hey G, what are your thoughts on another IH Forum hoodie or tshirt?
I think the last tshirt was a year ago or so and I have no idea how it sold. I think I read of a hoodie being done awhile back, but again, no clue how it sold.
I personally would like something other than black (for the hoodie or tshirt) or white (for the tshirt).
Maybe there might be interest forum wide…
-
I'm contemplating my navel re: a forum T at the moment. The last one sold poorly. We did do a forum sweat once and they sold really well, but I think that the forum is a very different place than it was in the early days and am not sure I could shift 60 if we made them again today…
That is 100% not a criticism of the forum as it is now, it is an objective view of the demographic....
-
Makes total sense…and then of course there is the whole issue of measurements where whatever you do pleases some and pisses off others ::)
Regardless of what you decide, lots of great stuff coming this spring to more than keep most of us happy (did I mention I am shitting myself about the "boss cut" jeans (UHR denim next please!) and the corduroy type IIIs ;D)
-
I'd love a IHF hoodie but I can see the problem re. demographics… Bearing in mind that I understand very little of the logistics, is there no way you could order a restock of the plain black zip up hoodie and have a small selection of those printed?
With regards to the tee... that indigo dyed Kojima tee was a bloody lovely little number and sold out in a flash. Maybe a forum version with that kind of aesthetic would do better?
-
what about a indigo forum polo shirt? With just a little forum logo on the front nothing on the back
-
A heavy hoodie with a yellow IRON HEART MOTORCYCLE logo embroidered on the back. I remember a very nice classic one embroidered on the IHSH-13 or the 07 few years ago. Only to the japan market. Not sure.
If someone can have the pics about it. Giles?Envoyé de mon iPhone en utilisant Tapatalk

That Kojima t-shirt was great looking. I wish I'd been quick enough to snag one, so I'd love a remake. Especially in that 6 oz loopwheeled fabric.
-
For me the Kohima style tee is a no brained, the more classic style black zipped logo hoodie would also be great and perhaps do a pre-order to check feasibility?
