        @TSG:

        … Now I guess I have all I need to last me a lifetime.

        I remember the first time I had that thought  😃

        Now I know I’m addicted to it.

        Welcome back.

          Hey there,
          I am a new forum member, based in Berlin/Germany. Happy to be here!

          Got sucked into the Iron Heart world 2-3 years back, but recently have been buying IH almost exclusively. I've gone through most raw denim brands you can think of, wondering why it took me so long to arrive at their wonderful 21oz denims recently. Even more than with slacks, I find that IH delivery superior quality and bang for buck when it comes to shirting. I'm a sucker for UHFs and denim westerns.

          Lastly, my feet seem to have "changed" in recent years: that being said and considering the above, I have a whole heap of "other brand's" shirts and denims to sell, as well as 8 or so pairs of Red Wings and some other high quality, Goodyear welt boots.

          I am wondering if it would be okay to create a post for that in the marketplace here? Only selling my much loved, used items in great condition. Some of the jeans have been hemmed.

          Would appreciate your feedback very much. Hoping to find like-minded people here, where my pieces will be in good hands.

            Welcome @kcon.

            The items you wish to sell seem well suited to the marketplace. Just read up on the tips and guidelines there before you post.

                On a side note, can we see this essay on Pokémon? Is it like a “cultural appropriation of Japanese youth culture for secular America capitalist regimes” type essay, or more like “squirtle is better than chamander because of ZYZ” type essay?

                      My thesis took me years to write. If I just used this service, I could’ve graduated so much sooner! And there would’ve been Pokémon in my thesis, too. Can’t believe I’ve wasted so much time.

                            I suspect most PhD theses would be improved through discussions of Pokemon…

                                  @seven_bacon Hey dude, I just purchased that same jacket. It just takes time to break in, all you need to do is wear it. The more of often you do, the faster the jacket will break in.

                                  edit: just saw your other post- and the answer on that thread is correct, soaking the jacket is key. That member helped me figure out my fit with the same jacket. He knows his stuff alright!

                                    @seven_bacon welcome to the forum. I hope you enjoy your time here and make some new friends.

                                    You can dampen up the sleeves if you're going for monster creases/combs on the sleeves and otherwise just wear it.

                                      Hello! I'm from the US, and new to Iron Heart but not to raw denim. Seeing all the IH wear photos here and on the Reddit board, I think I've been bitten by the IH bug. So I joined up to research the product line and maybe buy a used piece from this community. I've already learned a ton just lurking around. Thanks

                                        Either way, everyone here is awesome and super helpful. So please feel free to ask about anything you might be interested in or want to know about.  🙂

                                          @Filthy thanks Mike for the warm welcome. My name is also Mike but I can go by Michael to avoid confusion, or whatever you'd like to call me is fine, you could do like my wife and just call me "lazy SOB"  😞 😞

                                          My current pair of jeans are Railcars with ~ 100 wears so they're still in the prime of life. Using the IH measuring method they're 17.5 waist, 10.75 front rise, 15.5 back rise, 12.5 thigh, 8.5 knee, 7.2 hem. Inseam is 30" cuffed to prolly 28". Those jeans are a bit loose on me in the top block but not overly so, and give me a bit of loose diaper ass which is really a problem with all my pants. Below the thigh the fit is perfect. I'm a short dude and I think that the knee/hem measurements on these are perfect.

                                          SO what IH cut should I be looking at? Just by browsing around here I've kind of arrived on the idea of either 777 in size 34 or the 555 in 33, in the standard 21-oz indigo version. Does that sound reasonable to you given my current fit? Thanks
