Your biggest Iron Heart regret
-
As regrets go it's pretty minor, but I've made the mistake of sizing up to XL in two shirts now.. All my Ls fit me near perfectly but sometimes I get conscious of gaining weight and not fitting into them anymore and size up preemptively. Never a good decision... guess I've just got stay in shape!

A BNWT IHT-1600 for £40 on another site that I promptly bought, felt smug about, to be subsequently told by the site that it was sold out. Gutted.
Other than that, every season I have to pass on stuff that I’d love to own. I try not to regret or think too long about it, safe in the knowledge that IH are going to continue making awesome stuff.

My biggest IH regret is not starting out with the 634. I've bought and sold a lot of cuts only to realize that the OG is by far my favorite.

IHSW-45 or the IHSH-20 black/grey

Hands down for me the iHSH-100 17oz hairline duck CPO in indigo.
One of the early IH CPOs and in days when they were a rare beast.
The fabric in the indigo version was insane and, if memory serves, the fabric has never been rerun.
Only decent pics I could find of the indigo….
Tried one on when in Gosport but left with a pair of jeans instead. Regretted it ever since.
Never seen one in my size (XXL) for sale since. If anyone has one, I will buy it!
I ain't got time to bleed.

IHW-10 is still following me in my dreams…
I so need this jacket. -
@Cutlasshound Before my time, but definitely a grail item. I’ve only seen it referenced a few times over the years, but every time it’s mentioned I start searching for them again.

That, and missing the IHSH-316 last year. @Heavy_blue was able to find one in my size last month in Switzerland, which I immediately copped. What I regret about it is having to wait for UK Border Force to pull their heads out their asses and release it to Royal Mail to deliver the damned thing!
All it took was bitching about the delay here, and tonight I get an update that it’s only an hour’s drive away. Might even come tomorrow, who knows. Sweet.

I wish I had some brown duck 816. Also some of the 21oz serge 555 in indigo or black. I would also love to have a blue 19, purple 12, any color 22 or their OD versions, a gray 70, gray 64 (really any size M 64 other than black), and my all time grail the 6526J -SP double weave cord sherpa lined type III with snaps. The list could go on, but I feel like it’s just never ending once I start to think about the things I wish I had been able to get.

@Cutlasshound That thing is bananas…hope you find one.

@sabergirl I love your post because it’s about the most Iron Heart thing ever. I’m trying to imagine someone outside of this community trying to make sense of it and it’s got me laughing. To me it really highlights your knowledge of and history with IH. Awesome

@Cutlasshound For some reason that shirt flew under the radar. I don’t remember hearing anything about it until well after its release. And it has alligator arms. But ever since I’ve been hoping for a rerelease with normal arms or a hickory CPO.
