(Flat Lays/WAYWT) IRON HEART & other brands

Got quite a few pictures. One of my recent jacket pickups. And Showing off my 633's and some personal repair work I did.
My personal holy grail jacket. SEXIH07IIIBK2 ( Modified type 3 overdyed )
Been searching for about 2 years for this jacket and finally got my hands on one. It's worn a little but not too much. I think i'm going to stick with just my shop pin on this jacket. I'm working on a 3sixteen overdye jacket as we speak so this one is going on ice until I get my new pair of denim in the next couple of months.
My 633-14 double blacks. I've posted these up but I wanted to show some after wash pics and some repair work I did.
Showing off some whiskers and combs. This was the first wash, these were previously soaked around 5-6 months ago. I bought these back in march of '21. And I wear these every day.
There were 3 small holes, starting of a crotch blowout. I'm going to be blunt, I do not like the whole sashiko repair thing. I don't think it looks very good. With that said, other people can enjoy it but I decided to do a little darn work. This is my first time every repairing jeans myself. I have a little small sewing machine with a darning needle kit and I went to work. Not bad for my first job. Where the material that I darned over there were 3 holes starting on the seam where the stitching was falling apart. I would have sent these out to iron heart but these are the only pair of that i'm currently rocking, i'm not the type of dude to rotate. Also to clarify for expert sewers I did not pinch and lose fabric and the jeans sit the same.

Hey thanks! Yeah like I said. This was my first time doing any sort of repair or alteration on my denim. I showed some friends and they said the same thing it’s really a good boost knowing your own work looks good to other people. There’s some other bits and pieces that need to be touched up but I’ll address those when I get there. Also I recently went to a friends bday party and a bunch of them were asking about denim. Really cool explaining the what’s what. And their faces when you tell them how much you spend on stuff

Wow indeed. Y’all have made me want to participate with today’s humble combo. @seawolf ’s (ZeeBee Leather) saddle stitched belt adorned with the ridiculous Iron Heart brass buckle, some cordura socks, and the rest is IH with an assist from Viberg on the boots.

2nd wash on my IH633-14 double blacks. I posted them a while back but I got some pictures with Decent natural light out here in sunny California. (1 year / 2 wash / 1 soak / couple of repairs)
Once again I had a couple of small little repairs, one of them was preventative as part of the bottom was fraying and starting a small hole. I darned up 2 of the holes to reinforce the fabric and this is my 2nd time repairing my own jeans. I would have sent these out for repair but I wanted to try my hand out in fixing them myself.
I'm very pleased with the 14oz fabric, it's lasted this long and for context I've been wearing these every single day for a year at minimum 5 days a week for work and the only repairs I've done were just at the 1 year mark and there was not a single crotch blowout and I wore these extremely hard. They are not too light, they feel pretty sturdy as an all-arounder pair. I'd recommend this to people who wanna give a shot at lighter oz denim.
