When did you buy your first item of Iron Heart?

Question for you all:
You folks all have such varied and extensive IH collections. I feel kinda silly posting the same outfits over and over, but I'm new to IH clothing…
How long have you been sporting Iron Heart?
Good thread @tfahey00
My first IH purchase on May 29th 2014 from your local store in fact, SENY. Here's my proud IG post.
Wasn't my first cell bitch denim, but was my first (and to date only) Japanese brand. This is what they look like now: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=104.msg517430#msg517430 .
Joined the forum that summer after realising I'd dropped a bollock and bought a size too big, fooled by the 21oz stretch like a full on n00b. My first IHUK purchase was a pair of IH-555-01, an IHSH-106 and an IHPT-04. Here's the 106, from last autumn: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=6905.msg520760#msg520760 That was followed by a IHSH-85 and IHSH-64 at which point the rabbit hole I was flirting with opened up and swallowed me whole.
Btw, don't feel silly about anything. You post great stuff.

April 2015
Treated myself to an IHSH-33 to celebrate starting my first proper self-employed contract.
I then had all of my friends and colleagues rip the piss out of me wearing nothing but 'that fucking shirt'.I did wear it a lot. I even wore it every day snowboarding on incredibly sunny Alps the next spring.

I remember pre-IH megatron - sadly, my photobucket from my Sufu Days was deleted 8 years ago.
I’ll have to pull

Megatron was a real bus wanker back in those days.

Purchased my first IH item in April 2015, 634 XHS. I wore them pretty much everyday for the next year. I still have them, still love them, and still wear them regularly.
I don’t think I bought anything else until about 8 months later when I picked up the Beatle Buster XHS on sale. I didn’t really get active on the forum until about year after I bought my first IH jeans.
Since then my collection has grown…quite a bit...it’s honestly an addiction for me, but I love it and I love the IH community immensely.
For the first year or so I only had a few IH pieces. It took some time and resources to get to a place where I have a lot of diversity in my collection and pretty much every piece in my everyday kit is IH. It’s been a fun journey though!

March 22 2012. I had originally ordered a pair of 666-XHS from Self Edge only to find out that their inventory was wrong and they didn’t have a pair in my size. Being the impatient bastard that I am, I decided to order a pair of the Self Edge / Iron Heart collabs (SEXIHXLSXA-13), and I’m so glad I did because not many people ended up with this denim and it’s one of the best denims IH has ever done. I ended up getting the 666-XHS a few years later anyway so things worked out perfectly.

And since then knowing @Chris has been as much fun as a sandpaper dildo.
Everything is a sex toy if you’re brave enough. Even Chris. Allegedly.

Nope, he’s a fake Texan :o

Was @Seul still wearing them?
Seriously though, that’s a funny story.
The truth is almost as funny. On Feb 25, 2009 I ordered the IHSH-07 off a shady website that looked like it was designed and run by a teenager in his mom's basement.
