Does anyone have any experience sizing John Lofgren desert boots?  I'm referring specifically to the desert boots, not the other JL styles.

Any input greatly appreciated!

would love too see all of the patches over the years on here

The folks at Standard and Strange are probably your best bet here.. I wear 10.5 in the JL engineers and was advised to go with a 10 in the desert boots .. YMMV

Always been curious to learn which boot company manufacturers the Road Champ engineer boot for Mr Freedom?

Generally speaking I am not bad as this google malarkey but have been unable to find this one out.

Pretty sure that is Lofgren. Not 100%, but pretty sure.

Thank you Neph.  Looking at the two boots there are similarities.

Thanks.  I've been in touch with them previously and have been told to go with my regular Red Wing size.  Do you know what your Brannock size is @Boyo

So the real random question is…

Are our wives giving us good haircuts or are we putting on brave faces when confronted with the jarring reality of an uncertain future?

Fuck it, this’ll be me in 3 weeks...

[Kasi]

Or maybe go with a clean bald head and sing i am too sexy for my head 

[ddtrash]

@Anesthetist a good haircut, courtesy of the "Peaky Blinders".  It suits you.

I live in Peaky Blinder country and a lot of the lads round this way are rocking this hair cut.

I've a couple of questions re the website.

1 - The 'New In' section of the website is awesome, and I like that restocks are also listed here, but are all restocks, regardless of the quantity received, included? I ask, as I am tracking some continuous production pieces and it would be great if a place / shortcut for your 'hearted' pieces existed, in say my online IH wardrobe.

2 - Also, what instigates an item being removed from the 'New In' list, to then be only located within its specific category?  (I just spotted the recent restock of the hard as duck tee's has recently been refined to the t-shirt section only) I ask as I am after some tee's, an item which seems to not fall into the S.S.2020 schedule, and I don't want to miss out if they get moved on between site visits.

Know doubt, that's been asked and duly answered before, so apologies in advance if so.

Cheers, GC

We don't have a wardrobe facility as such.  And not all restocks are listed in there, often when we just got a few items, we do not bother.  It is really reserved for larger restocks (like a new production run).  But you can easily request an email alert for restocks:

https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=12250.0

Regarding movement from "New-In", there are no hard and fast rules, but usually because we feel there are too many things in the New-In category, so we do a prune, or because something has sold out of a lot of sizes….

Thanks for clarifying Giles, perfect! Actually, I do use the re-stock alert feature and, BOOM, I have just spotted that when logged into my account, within my alerts I have that very thing a wish list / wardrobe to review at a glance. I knew you'd come up trumps

Have a great weekend.

Thanks gents, I think Darci was especially flattered about the Peaky Blinders comment [emoji1]

OK, I want to support IH, so want to make a purchase. What do you forum types see as an essential (and in stock!) item. I have the following (I want either jeans, denim jackets, lighter weight shirts, or tees)

555 21oz 02s
555 21oz 03s
555 17 oz
555 16 oz
888 21oz
888 14oz
526 J type III
14oz OD type III
18oz type II
Duck work jacket (forgot number)
Madras western
33 indigo
A load of UHFs

Style wise I like a more rugged look, so not too smart. So, help a man out, what should I go for?
