Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
-
Our medium/long-term goal is to offer all iterations of sweats (crew neck, pullover hoody, zippered pullover and stand-up collar) in all colours….
This makes me so happy but my wallet soooo sad
I said if after last years release of zip collars and hoodies and I’ll say it again after the crew neck release from last week, these cut and sewn pieces are the unsung hero’s of IH. Obviously the denim and UHFs are legendary and massively popular, but the hoodies, crew necks and zip ups are bar none the best I’ve ever owned and it’s nice to see them getting the love and recognition they deserve
-
So, the pillowcases got me thinking about leftover fabric. I have a couple of 10 year old Far Holland kitchen mits that are denim and kimono fabric. How amazing would one be in 21oz and UHF…heirloom piece!!!

I asked, I got a Japanese yes. So probably not....
Perhaps they were just greeting you in English

Because we blew up the shuttle loom weaving the double indigo duck. We had to move production to a projectile loom. Despite the fact that we used exactly the same warp and weft and thus the fabric was therefore majorly similar to the fabric woven on the shuttle loom, it sold like crap because it was not selvedge.

This is only making me want it more
Seriously, exploding shuttle looms, projectile looms? I'm imagining a leather patch of a loom shuttle exploding.
Blanket-line all the things!!!

I really would like to see this collarless zip sweater make a return, PLEASE.

This was the patch we made for the 37 pairs we could make out of the fabric before we broke the loom....

The brown duck is woven on a projectile loom.....
Ah! Forgive me if I'm being dense here...so both indigo and brown duck have the same production issues but indigo duck just doesn't sell as well?
-
If it has indigo in it and it is a pair of trousers but does not have selvedge in the description, then sales are massively negatively impacted because a vast number of consumers believe that if it is not selvedge it is shite.....
