      Welcome buddy… thank you for the great intro. I like the sound of an employee owned manufacturing facility. What do you guys make?

      The company is called Metalcraft. Our bread and butter these days is in making RFID tags for various uses, like inventory tracking, and temperature and moisture sensors. We make a lot of clothing tags too, like the ones that will set off an alarm if you try and steal clothing without paying first. It’s fairly interesting stuff. Here’s a pic of me running my machine. I think I’m making car wash tags here[emoji2371]

        I'm amazed that at 6'7" you still have cuffs on those jeans 😉

        Great shot, great outfit!  Welcome!

        Thanks! That’s a big reason why I love Iron Heart! They fit large enough for me to cuff. I need at least a 36” inseam and most of their cuts have a couple pairs that reach or exceed that measurement. I love the look of PBJ fabric and I’ve been fortunate to find one pair that started off at a little over 37” before soaking but not many other Japanese brands offer the inseams that I need. I’ve also found many shirts and jackets from iron heart that fit my tall frame perfectly

          Hi there IH folks!

          Been sniffing around here for some time now and it isn’t that polite doing that without a proper introduction, so here we go.

          I am a 45yr old guy living in the Amsterdam area together with my gf Ingrid, during week days I live on my boat in the Groningen area wich is in the north of The Netherlands. I work in ICT business providing Cloud based telephone solutions to larger scale companys and callcenters, yes it is a very busy time for us right now…

          It’s Nudie Jeans that got me interested in raw selfedge denim, I bought my first Nudie in the year of their introduction en have been loyal to the brand up until I bought my first pair of IH in september last year. Since then the brand got me hooked.

          I am a sporty person, in winter I speedskate and in summer inline skating and racebiking I also love canoeing and like to SUP.

          I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback, her name is Yakini she is besides me on the picture.

          You are of course interested in what I’m wearing in the picture. A Saint James sailers hat, Pike Brothers Peacoat, IHSH-62-ind, IH-555-02, Wesco boots.

              Great intro, great dog, great look. That pea coat is particularly sharp (along with all the IH gear, obvs).

                Quick (re) introduction here as I haven't been active on the forum for a while.

                I'm Arlo, 38 and live in Ghent, Belgium. Some of you might remember me (Hi Giles, hi Paula!) 🙂
                I used to have a small shop a couple of years ago and was an IH dealer at the time, but I closed it and my life took another turn, and so did my finances, hence the lack of my forum presence (IH stuff is soooooo tempting)

                Nowadays I work on a freelance basis at Porsche restorers and sometimes work on some other brands (re)placing headliners and such, I'm not getting rich but I love what I do (most of the times that is)

                              Go for some jeans to give your Oni’s a run for their money. XHS or 21oz, or ID you are all indigo’ed up, something in SBG or OD

                                    The overdyed 21oz is really amazing stuff, so you cannot go wrong there. Good plan.

                                      I've been a member for ages (first IH purchase was 634s in 2016) but have only posted a couple of times. I feel like I ought to contribute pics, but don't have a decent camera and haven't yet worked out a convenient way of taking photos. But here's one anyway - new 555-01, worn for a couple of weeks since I picked them up in the restock. I'll put details in the product thread if the picture turns out to work…

                                      As for me, I live in London but I'm from Manchester (can't state the first without adding the second). I love the friendly feel of this forum, and having been reading so long I feel like I know several of you fairly well without actually having joined in.

                                      Edit: how can I make this image appear smaller?

                                          +1 they look great.

                                          Regarding pics, I think the majority of us use phones or have done. To avoid mirror pics start using the timer and propping it up against something, or if you really fancy it a little phone tripod will set you back £20.

                                          Good man for writing an intro, good man for the northern pride 😉
