Introduce Yourself Here
-
Greetings all,
After lurking in the forum for a while, I finally joined the ranks as a very pleased owner of 21 oz. 666s and a Type III vest. I dragged my feet on ordering for some time- despite the excellent guidance and support from IH- because I wanted to get the fit just right. My wife was kind enough to gift me both items, so for now they are locked away to be opened on Christmas. I did try both items on and the fit is perfect!I have been into denim for a few years- since I retired and was able to put away the dreaded business and business casual clothing. It is so nice to wear exactly what I want- which now, except for the most formal occasions includes denim. In addition to my preference for more casual clothing, heavy duty denim fits my semi-rural lifestyle. And finally, there is an element of nostalgia involved, as I have great memories of younger days when my wardrobe consisted of jeans and a few shirts. The other motivations have been to simplify my life and buy fewer, high quality, highly functional items.
Upon retirement, my progression has been to purchase Levis, then jeans from a local jeans manufacturer here in Virginia and finally, the grail, Iron Heart. Very pleased to be amongst you all in the IH community.

Hey ya'll. New to the forums and still new-ish to IH. You could say I'm a Good Art transplant. I knew about Iron Heart in terms of general brand heritage and quality denim, but ultimately my first purchase was a GAH adorned IHSH-341-BLK. Since then I grabbed the IHB-11-NAT belt, and I have a IHV-44-GA in the mail. Looking at denim next…..thanks for having me.

I'm basically the opposite! Welcome, and great to have you here!

Been lurking for the past year, so thought it was time to say Hello …
My name is Nick, originally from Manchester UK, now live out in the hills in the Peak District. Design and build mobile apps for a living.
First got into selvedge denim in a big way with LVC around 2010 ... was temporarily distracted by having young children ... then discovered IH a couple of years ago.
Mostly wearing 634S and 777-XHS at the moment, two very different cuts but loving both. Got into western shirts, favourite is IHSH-333-SAX. Also got an IH N1 to keep me warm in darkest Derbyshire, and a beige cord type 3.
Have found this forum to be an amazing source of information ... looking forward to getting more involved.

Welcome @nick_jeff a very solid collection indeed!
Look forward to seeing some pics of IH paired with the beautiful scenery of the Peak District

Servus Kameradan!
My name's Mark, I live in (Downtown) Los Angeles, and I'm an unabashed Iron Heart devotee. I've worn selvage denim since about the mid-2010s and happily stumbled upon IH in about 2018 and have lurked off-and-on the forum since then.
Although I love all things heritage/work/Japanese-Americana (e.g., RMC, Mister Freedom, etc.), IMO, nothing bests IH.
I'm happy to throw my hat into the ring, so to speak, and join in the best, most helpful clothes-related site out there!

Hi everyone, glad to meet everyone on the forum here. Seems like a very active and friendly community.
I first heard of Iron Heart about 12 yrs when I got into raw denim. I find myself wearing less jeans these days but I'm back now and very interested in IH Type 3 jackets.

Hi, I'm new to the forum, but not to IH. I'm working /living in Vienna /Austria.
I've browsing the forum for quiet a long time, but now I'm registered. I already read a lot and learned a lot about IH and raw denim in general here.Sent from my VOG-L29 using Tapatalk
