Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?

Not that i need another vest,as I currently have 3,but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want one with snaps,like you did on the XHS Vest. A vest with a zipper might be cool as well. Last but not least…What did the policeman say to his bellybutton?…You’re under AVEST!

@Jett129 you make me laugh! They should let you get AVESTED and got denimCUFFED

EdH

At the risk of denimhead heresy, have IH ever thought of doing a run of jeans/shirts/jackets in a stonewashed selvedge denim? Sometimes you want those vintage fades out of the bag - e.g. if wearing double denim but not wanting to 'match'. Others might just want a piece that is free of wear and tear, but has already got those sky/electric blue hues.

Never would I ever suggest fake fades though - those just look shit.

That’s an interesting ask @EdH. Nik has achieved this look quickly by bleaching his 888’s.

Rogue territory has released some jeans and jackets that have a washed out look from the get go. Same with Rats on the Sonder site.

@EdH I really dig stonewashed denim jackets/shirts too. Some brands do offer it, as @jordanscollected says RGT have done some nice stuff as have 3sixteen. FULLCOUNT also have some really nice pre-distressed jackets but they’re priced too highly for me. I wonder if it’s something Haraki-San would get behind though? I might be wrong, but I remember reading that he prefers unfaded denim and is not thinking too much about how the fabric fades, so pre-aged/stonewashed might go against his aesthetic preferences..?

Daniel San

I don’t think it’s Haraki‘s style .

Has a 14 oz non fade black denim been done? might be cool for someone that doesn't want something as heavy as the 21oz superblack.

sabergirl

Petty sure the superblack 21oz is the only “non-fade” denim iron heart has ever made.

Alex

@pmadison95 I have asked haraki to sample it, not seen any samples though.

If we ever do stonewash, a little bit of me will die.

Opinion - It does not sit comfortably with our DNA,
Fact - it's awful for the environment.....

and it already looked crappy in the 80s

A 9oz tee. I see a lot of brand who offer a in between weight.

Stonewashed bad. Raw good.

@Alex Please rerun this…

I sold mine during the purge and instantly regretted it.

Not an item per se, but I'd love to see more shirts with contrast reinforcement stitching as seen here on the Hickory western, and on the Wabash workshirt.

It's small details like this that can set a piece aside from others, and make it a must-buy (for me anyway)
