              G'Day from Downunder

              I thought it about time I introduced myself. I'm a 53 year old bald bastard from Perth Western Australia.

              I found IH by accident really, when I was searching for a decent plaid buffalo shirt and was intrigued and I nearly fell off my chair at the cost LOL Fortunately there were none available in my size. But this first look at IH had me.

              I've been pretty immersed in Japanese culture though 20+ years in martial arts and have travelled to Japan numerous times to train, compete and take examinations. During these visits it was very apparent the Japanese seem to always follow the philosophy of pursuit of perfection, especially in craftsmanship.

              I used the chat function to suss out what jeans would suit me best, and can say, hand on heart (Iron) that the customer service was outstanding and in 23 years of online shopping I have never felt as comfortable and confident regarding the information that was so forthcoming and treated like a real person, in fact treated like a friend. I have never dropped this sort of coin on demin before. I ordered the size and style recommended IH-666S-21 and they arrived in a week! After being crushed by the fit for a day or so they pressure stretched as I was told and they fit like a glove - perfect.

              In the following 3 months I have bought 3 shirts (including the red and black buffalo plaid) and have a leather jacket on order!

              The sickness is real  😃

              I will try and take some pics at some stage, well done to anyone that got to the end of this overly verbose first post.

                  Great intro. I love a bit of verbosity, so feel free to carry on. Welcome to the forum!

                    There's quite a few of those here, so you're in good company.

                    I was doing a Google image search for the terms, "grey and black buffalo plaid western" and that's how I found out about Iron Heart. I didn't even know what selvedge denim was at the time. That shirt was sold out but I got a few others and the rest is history. I have been here ever since.

                    Welcome  🙂

                      Care to tell us what adjectives crossed your mind right then?  😉 😉 This’ll prove to be one of those relationships which after a terrible first impression only improves with each blue/paper bag on your porch!
                      Nice intro, thanks and welcome.

                      The journey is the objective.

                        Many thanks @Appfaff  🙂

                        Thanks @neph93 - I've read many of your great posts  🙂

                        Hahaha @Filthy - sounds like we are brothers from other mothers, chrome domes and plaid shirts rule  😃

                        Thanks @motojobobo - haha yeah a few choice adjectives, but it wasn't a terrible first impression at all. It didn't stop me and the shirt is now mine and totally worth it.  😃

                        I am hanging out for my next delivery  😉

                            Hey everyone,

                            I’m Sean and I live in Springfield, MO (D’OH!) with my wife and two young kids. I’ve been reading the forum for quite a while and thought it was finally time to participate. I found IH while trying to minimize my wardrobe. I was searching for a well made pair of jeans that could take lots of wear and hold up. I love the idea of owning fewer, well made things that deliver value by doing what they were designed to do and lasting a long time. So in that regard, finding IH has been a bit of a double edged sword.  IH clothes are incredibly well made and last, but my minimizing has been wrecked because there is so much awesome stuff! My first pair of jeans were the 666S-21L and they are incredible. I’ve added lots of pieces over the past couple of years and look forward to being active on the forum. You all have made it a great place to be!

                            Sean
