I just came to appreciate that I can wear whatever I want to work - within the bounds of good taste of course :).
Never really thought about that fact.
-
@RobeOfTheMagi same! It’s a privilege I do not take for granted.
-
I wear what I want most days. When I’m seeing a client or prospect I dress up.
My business wear is not an area of serious investment. I place more emphasis on casual stuff I wear on the daily.

Disclaimer. This occurred in October 2023. I’m making this post only and just only to share my experience upon Iron Heart performance as a bikers engineered jeans on a motorbike crash.
My buddies and I were driving back to our dorms on the interstate road at 11:00 p.m. on a Sunday night when it happened. We were going around 60kmh then all of a sudden a black scooter from the opposite direction made a u-turn, crossing a 2 continuous yellow line in the middle of the road. Unable to weave or brake, I t-boned him. Launched into the air, I propelled 7 or more meters forward and landed on my right side of the body, I rolled around on the tarmac then finally laid flat on my back. I checked my neck and back, I can feel them and there were no pain so my friends picked me up and I stood. Felt like a huge blow on my right ankle but upon seeing not a single scratch on my jeans, I stepped. It was dreadful, massive pain suddenly coming out of my right ankle. Pulled my jeans up and turns out that it was broken. I was quickly sent to an emergency room in a hospital nearby, had an X-ray, and was found to have a complete fracture. No scratch, no chafing, no bruises on both of my legs, just a broken ankle.
Upon getting to a stable state, I checked my jeans and I was surprised to see that it wasn’t ripped or anything. I was trying hard to find the marks that were left from the crash, there were barely any. Just a slight contrast fade on the whiskers on the right.
I’ve read many from the community, Iron Heart official site and many discussion platforms that Iron Heart was originally made for bikers, designed to be durable and to some extent protective for motor bikers. It’s just astonishing how it performs on this crash, getting nothing but only a more contrast fade on the right whiskers, plus I didn’t get any wounds on both of my legs other than a broken ankle.
Iron Heart doesn’t just barks, it bites. It’s truly engineered for bikers. If you’re a biker and looking for something that is not only durable but also protective piece of trouser that is casual enough to wear off the bike, I highly recommend you to get an Iron Heart denim.

I just found out that I can stilly olli the tail of a skateboard 3 inches off the ground after 18 years of no skateboarding, that really put a smile on my face :).

@RobeOfTheMagi Great feeling
Yesterday I realised I could still solve a Rubik's Cube after around five years of not picking one up, once you know how to do it, it's just muscle memory I guess!
