Introduce Yourself Here

not gonna pretend otherwise….i'm a long time lurker forced out of my hole by the new marketplace policy
i prefer pre-owned to new when i can get it, esp for well made products like iron heart that have a usuable life beyond what many can muster

Pre-owned IH gear is awesome to find on here, especially when you don't pay full price.

Hello everyone,
My name is David. I am originally from Czechoslovakia , lived all over the Europe in 90's and eventually settled down in beautiful Oregon near Portland almost 25 years ago.
I work for myself in construction field. I enjoy training and competing with my dogs, riding my old Triumph Daytona motorcycle and mountain bike all over this place.
I was introduced to Iron Heart about 3 years ago by my friends in Self Edge Portland and developed "the addiction " shortly after.
I have been reading posts on this forum for awhile and I think it's time to introduce myself.

Thank you
For sure …I love it here. -
Hi there,
Raw denim fan since mid 90s, made a break for 8-9 years and recently rekindled my passion for high quality durable clothes. A great local store in Toronto (Dutil) carries IH and that is where I got my first pair of IH jeans (777-142od).
I found the fit of 777 to be perfect for me so I also got them in 14oz indigo, and when they didn't have 777s-21 locally, I decided to order them from the IH store online.
There, I was blown away with the quality of service. Graham's handholding through the purchase process was unforgettable and if/when I can't find the next IH product locally I know where I'll go for additional purchases.
Cheers,
Darko -
Welcome @Darko to the forum and glad you enjoyed the help/service from IHUK and @Graham. The entire crew in Gosport are top tier in their support, knowledge, and understanding and I can personally say a fine group to meet in person and interact with.
Haven’t made it to Dutil, but need to make a trip as I’m about 2 hours east of Toronto.

Welcome Andre! While my wife and I are born and raised Southern Californians, we love KC, MO. Our best friends moved there a couple years ago. Our son served in the Army at Fort Riley Kansas. This coming Christmas we are road tripping to KC to spend the holidays with our friends.

I'm Brian

originally from Maidenhead in the UK with stints in Manchester for Uni and worknot long got myself a pair of 21oz 777 and a very nice white t-shirt as first IH purchases
Been wearing Selvedge denim since my uni days when I had a pair of Evisu jeans
never really understood the concept or characteristics of selvedge denim until a trip to Sydney in 2014 for my honeymoon and got chatting to a shop owner while buying some jeans. I used to buy them wear and wash them like any normal garment of clothing and throw them out when they looked worn or got a hole in themhave had many different brands over the years from nudie to apc to leftfield, railcar, japan blue momotaro and Really looking forward to breaking in the 777 and wearing them with pride
Looking forward to getting stuck in and contributing

How do IH forum!? I recently joined the forum and have been trying to learn some etiquette before posting much. Think I’m beginning to get a feel for things but please feel free to smash me if I am operating poorly.
My 37 years have been spent in various trades, activities and adventures that require high performing and tough gear. I’ve worked on a fishing boat, been a hunting guide, construction worker and have enjoyed loads of adventures on my own backpacking, hunting and fishing journeys. All of this has trained me to appreciate genuine quality in fabrics and performance of my gear.
I found the selvage denim world about a year and a half ago and have been more or less… or more… obsessed about learning denim. The concept of making your articles of clothing a project has been really inspiring to me. I came across IH about a year ago and have honestly tried and failed at finding my cut or size a few times until now. Currently Ive been working in a pair of IH 888 XHS for about two months and own various other IH pieces.
I could say a lot more here but really just wanted to introduce myself and say I’m glad to have found IH and am eager to learn and connect here on this platform. Thank you IH! [emoji1605]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
