can someone explain sonder supplies to me?
is it an extension of your business (not iron heart) that's meant to seperate other brands that you choose to carry or is it totally different and run, owned and operated by someone else?

I'm assuming it's an extension of the business to carry 3rd party goods, especially since it has its own sub-forum.

It's run by us, Is owned by us, and is a vehicle to sell stuff that we personally really like that may or may not sit 100% comfortably on the Iron Heart website…...

@gaseousclay sorry for the late response dude. I've bought a couple of tshirts from Earache but not for a good few years. I had Morbid Angel and Entombed shirts and they were Gildan soft style. The sizing was erratic, large being too small and x large being to big and flared.
As for print, the quality is exceptional. I haven't bought a band t-shirt for sometime now, the last one was an Incantation shirt fro. Relapse. That was exceptional quality… And I'm going to see them live on Saturday, so no doubt I'll buy a shirt then!

I’m thinking of buying this Patagonia Atom Sling pack and was curious what your thoughts are? I like my Patagonia down jacket a lot and like their mission statement and that this pack is made from recycled materials. Only $59 too. I’m leaning heavily towards Patagonia but wanted to know if there were other companies out there you’d recommend? I take my son to the state fair every summer and this pack would be very functional for those occasions

While I’m not a fan of sling packs, I am a huge fan of Patagonia. I have the 25L black hole day pack. It’s the best day pack I’ve ever had.

I was mainly interested in something compact. I used to carry a backpack around with me at the fair and that got a little annoying over the course of 4-5 hours of walking around.

How heavy is your load going to be?
My main gripe about these packs is a single shoulder backpack starts to wear on that shoulder after awhile. A two shoulder can be a one shoulder or a two shoulder and you can change from right to left if one starts to get raw.
Not very heavy….under 5 lbs. In the past I would carry some spare clothing for my son, a water bottle and some snacks. This time I plan on reducing the load so that I’m carrying less, but have something compact to carry stuff like my wallet, keys and snacks/water. The back pack I’ve been using, while not uncomfortable, still felt cumbersome. I just want something smaller

Yeah, I get it. Should work ok.
I keep one of these in my glovebox for when I get "Granddoug I want to go (insert random request from a 4 year old here)"

Been thinking of getting one of these for padding around Vegas/spelunking with the dogs. I have one of their chest packs and I'm pretty impressed with it's build quality

I'm looking to get a pair of engineer boots one of these days, but the jeans I have are a bit narrow at the opening for them. So, I was thinking about getting a pair from IH. What style do you all find works best for these types of boots?
-
Sorry, I should have been more clear. What style or cut from IH works best for engineer boots?

Huge question! The simple answer is any and all depending on personal taste, style and what kind of look you want to rock.
What IH cuts do you wear? What is your inseam? Which boots are you considering?
-
As do I on occasion. Today in fact:
I think the 666 is a good cut for engineers. It’s the golden middle way. Not to flappy but wide enough that the jeans fall clear from the boot shaft.
That being said you see guys rocking wide hemmed 634 style jeans with high cuffs and tapered, narrow last engineers (check «vintage_engineer_boots» on IG). The IH .jp crew do the big, wide last, bump toe, double mids with long hemmed wide jeans to great effect.
I really like narrower hems (777, 555) with Wesco’s MP last, but it is not for everyone, nor will I claim that it looks great on me, it probably doesn’t, but I just dig it a lot. Check our «fjorde» on IG for a guy that really kills it in 555’s and Wesco boots.
My personal happy place right now is the 888 cut with engineers. The point is though, there are loads of different ways of doing it. Just get a pair, start wearing them with your favourite jeans and have fun working it out from there.
