Hi, just thought I'd introduce myself.
I'm Nick and I'm from the north east of England. I've been lurking for a while but think I'm almost ready to take the plunge on a pair of Iron Hearts.
Just trying to decide which cut to go for at the moment which is proving tricky! I know I definitely want the 21oz selvedge.
Currently have a couple of 501 selvedge, Edwin ED 47 rainbow, Nashville and Brave star slim straights in 16.5oz among a few others so Iron Heart will be quite a jump in price and quality.
I also bought some Hoggs of Fife Rannoch thanks to browsing this forum! love them

I never introduced myself . Just ran into this thread .
My name is Mustafa and I am based out of Princeton , New Jersey . I am married with one 9 year old daughter .I always loved denim but never heard of selvedge denim or Japanese art of making denim. I was mostly Nordstrom / Bloomingdales denim shopper. About 1.5 years ago I was searching for denim and stumbled on an article of heddles breakdown of three tier of jeans brand. In their I’ve found “iron heart” name listed as top tier denim maker. I’ve never heard for iron heart. For curiosity sake , I went on iron heart site and quickly learned about selvedge denim and the forum. Interestingly, I never purchased a jeans over $200. I saw the pricing upwards of $400 and i immediately thought this must be the quality . I never mind spending money on denim if I see denim in person and appreciate the quality . Unfortunately , not many luxury stores in America carry selvedge Japanese quality denim . If they do they are online only items. Stores like self edge and blue owl are rear and I am not lucky to have a store nearby me.
I always appreciate quality in everything. My first purchase was iron heart 25oz 777 and my introduction to Alex. I immediately like the customer service .
Long story short , I am loving the denim world and getting more connected to other brand like pure blue Japan.
Few pictures of my denim collection!
Total denim weight 190oz!

Welcome to the forum @Redcar123 @Juliedang and @cosmic55 !!

Hi there !
I'm lurking and reading for a while on here now and I just thought I could introduce myself !
My name is Kevin, 28 yo, father of a 2yo girl. I live in far west germany, got a 20 minute bike ride to the Netherlands, which is super nice.
I'm into iron heart for just half a year maybe . I was looking out for some quality clothing after spending so much money for poor quality stuff and was so tired of this. Yeah that's how I found out about iron heart and some other hq brands .
Right now I own 2 pair of jeans (555 and a 634) and a 777 on the way. Five shirts so far and many on the to-buy-list. Think I'll be broke soon if this keeps going . It really is addicting. I almost don't want to wear anything else anymore.That's it so far. Cheers and have a nice day !

Yes it is and I pretty much don’t [emoji1]
Thanks for the nice intro. -
Hello everyone! My name is Denim Jane, I am from China, I like iron heart very much. I currently own iron heart products IH-526PJ, IH-526SV, IH-526V-XHS and IHSH-178, which are purchased in Japan official website and UK. The official website, since passing through the iron heart, it is difficult to accept clothes from other brands. I think I am not far from bankruptcy. I am very happy to meet everyone.

Welcome to the forum @Denim Jane . Good to have you here. That’s a very nice collection you have!
IH can become an addiction for sure, and I think buying clothes isn’t the same after you get the IH habit.
Looking forward to hearing more from you here. If you have any questions please do ask.

I've never been the tweedy sort of University Professor but now that I'm near-grandfather age I can dress the way I really want. Then I found Iron Heart. What took me so long? I'm replacing my old wardrobe, giving away most of it, going to the office in denim, flannels, and IH from now on. I teach Hinduism, Buddhism, and south Asian languages (like Sanskrit and Tamil) but the occasional seminar in Zen. Iron Heart is my zen seminar now yo. Thanks for having me.

Welcome @profdbrk, or should that be gassho ;). Interesting background, am sure you'll elevate some of our conversations. Enjoy your stay and look forward to reading more from you. I'm a Zen Buddhist myself having resided in various monasteries in my earlier years. Not a monk by any means, just my world view/way of life. I do hope to eventually retire and live out my days as a monk after repaying my contributions to society.

What’s up everybody, I’m new to the forum but not to Iron Heart. I’ve been enjoying quality denim for several years now and decided to finally join this fine group. I live in the U.S where it’s hot in the summer and the winters are very mild and I still rock out the 25oz. year rd. My favorite denim at the moment is the 18oz vintage, it’s superb. I’m a machinist and I also ride motorcycles so my iron heart gear gets plenty of use, it’s amazing how well it holds up. Well anyways I hope I can contribute to this forum and possibly spark someone else’s passion/obsession!

Welcome and thanks for the very nice intro. Looking forward to seeing how messed up your gear is, not least the vintage style 18oz which is great stuff, I agree.

Hello all:
My name is William. I live in Los Angeles with my wife and daughter. Originally, I was drawn to Iron Heart because of their IHxPxT1. After I got that jacket, it sent me into a full-blown spiral! I had to get more IH gear. After getting some of the essentials, I am now looking to replace some of my collection of shirts/jackets with IH gear. Thought the forum would be the best place to learn what products everyone likes. Anyway, I love it here so far. Thank you for having me.

Hi there William. Thanks for the introduction. I’ve seen you on the shirt threads and it’s great to see you mining the classic shirts from the get go. Very good call in my opinion. Lovely to see you contributing content already. You’re very welcome here.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm trying to bust through the ones on the 21 promo code. Not only is that a nice bouns but it seems like those are the classics. I have ventured outside the 21 shirts, though. I got the IHSH-177 and 189. Both were awesome. Any suggestions would be appreciated, especially when it comes to the flannels. Going through the posts, it seems like you are very knowledgeable.
