Thanks for the info both, perhaps the safer route is having a competent tailor take in the waist and opening…

Do you have more Chup socks coming in?

[Giles]

Nope not this season.  I thought this seasons offerings were a little underwhelming….Sorry

@Giles Why did you guys change your logo?

[Alex]

We have come to the decision that we need to rebuild our website again. There are two main reasons for this:

The mobile site is very poor. The reason this is so important is on average, across the two sites (Int'l & US), the number of those users browsing on a mobile device is 62.68%.

The desktop site, while holding good content, is a little outdated and clunky. We need to make serious improvements to the checkout, we do not have enough control over our content pages and the design of them and we are on a very outdated platform.

While we have been analysing ways to improve the site, a couple of things have jumped out at us.

We (IHUK) are very inconsistent with font usage, font size, and branding of this sort.

Our current logo, Tetsu san's 'Bells & Wings' does not look as good as it could when it is compressed down to a small logo. The copy within the ring that encircles the logo itself is lost and because you can no longer see the text the final effect is the logo looking quite messy. What we need is a more simplified logo, with no text inside it that can be more flexibly used.

The font usage is quite an easy fix as it is down to choosing the correct typeface while subtly maintaining the heritage of the brand, then coding them into the new website.

This is a much-shortened version of the email I sent to Haraki recently. In response he sent over 6 new logos, We have developed one that meets our needs best moving forward and that is the one currently in use.

Iron Heart Website V5 should be late this year, early 2020.

Although "The Purple Jam" may be an even better name than "Purple Rain". I too am interested in the The Purple Jam workshirt… and my b'day just happens to be in early November....

Rightly so!

is there a difference between the 25oz indigo/black and the 19oz indigo/black?

from what i gather, the difference is in the type of black dye being used for the weft. i'm really liking the 19s, they remind me a lot of my PBJs 24oz 007 double indigo warp and weft..

[Giles]

Yep, the 25oz XHS-ib has a reactive dyed weft, the 19oz has a sulphur dipped weft….

[louisbosco]

thanks!

Is there still a Russian version or chat stop on the forum? I had someone on IG ask about the forum but they don’t speak English. Thanks for the help!

There is not.  But you can ask him to send a message in Cyrillic to shop@ironheart.co.uk and we can see what we can do.
