      I picked up the 526 DD from Den1mhead.  It's one of my favorite jackets!  Definitely takes a LOT of breaking in.  Crispy!

      Blanket-line all the things!!!

        Furthermore the duck fabric is so badass that it breaks the loom it's been woven on when making it with a selvage ID.

          Don't think we are continuing to make the 16oz I am afraid.

          Tragic that it didn’t meet expectations sales-wise. It’s such a great denim, and it’s the best hot-weather IH denim because of its combination of lighter weight and breathability.

            This is more of an enhancement than new product. Wish Type IIs would have handwarmer pockets added. If Oni, tanuki, TCB and other brands can make it look good, I have no doubt IH could. Type IIIs didn’t have them originally either but we see how many in the IH roster now do.

              Would love an overdyed version of the 33T. The 33B is probably my next purchase but it would be nice to have one without the contrast stitching too.

                    I am wearing my new shorts for the 1st time today. (They are fantastic) but I gotta say how nice it is to have a zipper.
                    It's great having a zipper.
                    So, I really wish you guys would make some kind of relaxed fit SELVEDGE jean with a zipper. Can be 21 oz, 21 oz lefty, UHR, or 25 XHS (would be my number 1 pick) in maybe a 1955, 634, or 888 cut. I know you have the 21 oz non-selvedge pair. But I really want something that is authentically Iron Heart denim.

                    Forgot to say please and thank you!

                      I support this idea. Please add me to the list of buyers. A pair of 21oz or 25oz relaxed fit selvedge jeans with a zipper in either 1955 or 888 cut would be awesome if the zippers are durable with that kind of a heavyweight pair of jeans. I'd love my tag size (W28 or W29, depends on the cut) to be available as well if this idea should become reality.

                      Generally I just fully stand behind the idea of relaxed fit cuts. Unfortunately there isn't much to choose from for me if I want a medium-high rise, wide thighs and still a slim silhouette. Most of the jeans available are meant for the slimmer/ skinnier guys and I understand that there is apparently not much demand for the kind of jeans I'd like to have. Nevertheless, this is what I think could be made.

                      The 888 is apparently exactly that but unfortunately it's not available in my tag size/ waist width. Therefore, I'm also still very much hoping to be able to get a pair of 888S in tag size W28 some time in the near future even though there are no plans for it yet.

                        I'll have to second that, @Filthy . I love the zip on my 822. I love my 822. I will be wanting another pair at some point. Any idea if they'll ever get made again?

                            I’d buy original 25 oz 888  with or without a zipper.  Though I would also prefer zipper

                              Is there a reason most of IH denim has buttons over zippers?  Cost?  Difficulty?  Historical accuracy?

                              I've gotten used to it so I don't mind either way. Just curious.

                                I would assume historical accuracy. I prefer buttons on my denim

                                  Iron Heart is all about functionality and buttons allow for more flexibility to achieve a desired fit on bottoms. While I loved the chunky Talon zipper on my old 707 chinos, buttons are still the way to go when it comes to denim.

                                    this is why I said relaxed fit. And there's like 300 other different pairs to choose from that have buttons already. 👍

                                      To be exact, 76 different pairs (denim or non-denim) with buttons and 11 pairs with zippers to choose from 😃 If the website's filtering function is accurate, that is.

                                      And amongst the ones that do have a zipper, either the thigh width or the front rise is too small for me.

                                        There are probably a few reasons but the only one that really matters is that Haraki-san wants it that way.

                                        Otherwise I’d surmise that Levi’s having been the main design blueprint for most Japanese brands, and Levi’s being traditionally a button fly brand is a major factor.

                                        Historical accuracy, for its own sake, is of little importance to Iron Heart in general, when compared to RMC amongst others.

                                          I'm probably missing something but I don't understand this…

                                            zippers always manage to come partially undone for me. Even the ones that fold down and lock seem to unzip halfway depending how I'm sitting. I love the convenience of zips but buttons stay buttoned for me, so I prefer them.
