They do look great and it's a shame to retire them, but love the story they tell!

Thanks for starting this thread! So cool to see the repairs and advice. Thank you Josh!

[JoshC]

Good afternoon legends! Apologises for being abit quiet on this thread it has been non-stop. however we have some super exciting repairs coming through at the moment! As you can see we have 3 denim jackets in for repair and one of them is going into the ReLove section once completed!

I had a chance to do some repairs this week and some wicked looking IH-666S-BK that needed a crotch repair and hemming

We had a knee repair for a pair of 777S-21 that are looking cool..

@JoshC repaired my favourite and most worn jeans.  666-18’s that need some cuff work and to repair some crotch damage.  Absolutely love the work done and the fact I can give them hell all over again.  As we were discussing in the other thread, I love the fact that these jeans represent my story and the fact that I was able to pick them up in Gosport which makes the story a little more special to me.

@JoshC crotch blowout is on its way on my pair of 888S-21. Too soon for you to take a look? Feels like it’s getting worse daily. Photos of outside and inside.

If it’s too soon for you to see them, anything I can do (other than walk bow-legged) at this stage?

[JoshC]

Hey @EdH, how's it going? It is starting to go you can see it. It's up to you. You'll probably get about a week or so of wear before it will go! but I'd give them a nice fresh wash and get them over to me for repair. When you want to send them over, fill out the repair for me so that it is on our system https://www.ironheart.co.uk/content/wear-and-repair. If you get it to me before 2nd December, you will have it back before Christmas. Anything after this date won't get done until after January, when I'm back in.

All going well @JoshC, just getting the house ready for the new arrival, and using the black-friday sales to try to safe a few £ on prams and car seats… I used to think IH was expensive... I hope all's well with you too mate.

I figured it would be better to get them seen to now rather than once the material actually goes. The jeans are in the wash now and will try to get them on their way to you this week. I've requested a repair through the link. Cheers!
