@SKT @flannel-slut It does look similar doesnt it!

[DrPat]

I actually preferred when the crew were used as models in the lookbook. These professional models remind me of the guys I see in every clothing advertisement on social media.

[Matt]

I’m pretty sure I saw beard guy in an episode of Ted Lasso.

[Steve]

@Matt You did, he appeared a few times as an extra in it

100% agree! And since we know the sizes of everyone in the Team it's easy to relate that to our measurements and have an instant grasp on how it might look on us.

@Karol We add the measurements of the models we use to the vitals list post, so you can compare their measurements. We'll do the same with Rudi once the look book is released

[SKT]

I was guessing his name was Rudi

The last lookbook we did with the crew was FW19... Perhaps you're thinking of the ones we did with Olly? He was hired to be a model for our lookbook, then we got on well and he became part of the crew. That's the way we like to recruit, not just adverts on indeed.com or some other shite.

@SKT the real question is what’s his YT yoga channel?

[Oaktavia]

@Alex I think maybe what we meant was we liked seeing the Stubborn Crew lookin' all purdy in the older lookbooks as their faces are familiar. Your point makes sense regardless though.

[popvulture]

Oh for sure. Rudi’s obviously an incredibly handsome guy and is certainly lookbook worthy, but I do agree that the familiarity of the crew and everyman vibe is nice.

[tody]

But then again, we're probably not the main target audience for the lookbook anyway. I can totally see the need to put the lookbook on a professional level, us forum members will get the crew pictures anyway in due course.

[Matt]

We’d buy this shit if monkeys were wearing it.

[DrPat]

@Alex yes, I mean the older ones. I remember the photoshoot of you guys playing pool in a bar being particularly good.

However, I also liked the ones with Olly. Even before I had the chance to meet him, I thought his look matched very well with my idea of what Iron Heart should be.

Obviously this is my person opinion and no criticism of the models' character, but I just don't feel a connection to an undercut / man bun / hipster beard clone that looks identical to all the guys in the ads that I try to ignore.

@Matt You’ve inspired me on more than one occasion…take from that what you will

[Karol]

@Matt @goosehd

[Nik]

Monkey model look book is a fun idea

[Matt]

I thought that immediately after I wrote it.

[Mizmazzle]

@popvulture this is my take as well. Love that IH is more an everyday man’s type brand…not the chiseled model, high fashion type vibe. Guess growing the brand comes with bringing in the good looking!
