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

[iammortalcombat]

@AdamJ add in the relaxed top block and leg opening for the athletes and you got yourself a winner. Love my easy shorts but they get caught on the ole thighs when sitting. Actually considering getting a gusset or something added in to help stop that

@Giles any plans for 21oz ib in the foreseeable future?
If I remember it right last time they flew away like hotdogs at the public event

[Giles]

@Alex ?

[Alex]

@Yoprst your memory is slightly wrong, they ended up in the outlet discounted as they sold slowly. No plans at the moment to rerun the denim, but never say never

[Yoprst]

@Alex as far as I can see only the ones of the little demand sizes ended up at the outlet shelves which is quite predictable for the most of production. And cosidering current global economical situation there are very few of your products that sells realy fast so probably ib was selling what nowadays is normal. Anyway you are the ones to deside what to offer us and we are the ones to deside which offer to accept and which to decline

@Yoprst I have worked in import a long time and I know that there's sometimes a little but loud customer base which has love for products that only from outside perspective look like a banger... But it's us IH geeks here in the forum that may have the connection to the boys from IH but I bet we are a minority while lots of customers don't even know about the forum, just think of how many retailers all over the world get their stuff from IHUK...

Btt while I'm on a short trip right now I was thinking how cool a 21 oz varsity jacket with leather sleeves would be

@FlavourFade You mean like this?

Thank you for this. I’ll be using it on the regular from now on.

[FlavourFade]

@Jett129 never knew this but yeah basically this in a denim version

Iron Heart Roll Top Adventurers 21oz Insulated Picnic Backpack, complete with UHF blanket… and why not throw an axe loop in there too for good measure.

[Matt]

This sounds like an expensive backpack.

[Bailey]

@long_john86 definitely not mad at the idea of an IH backpack though. I have plastered mine with IH patches currently haha

[long_john86]

@Matt you don’t wanna picnic in style?

@Bailey IH indigo backpack would be next level! I know that has been thrown in the mix in here several times before…

We had the cheeky 25oz tote… a warm up?

[Matt]

There’d be no more money left for food I’m afraid.

I could be under wrong impression but I think that the main purpose of this forum is the feedback our dear IHUK team gets from us that helps it to make supply meet the demand. Of course all my remarks and suggestions are totally subjective and reflect my personal point of view. I want to see what I want to buy and at this point I don't think I'm much different from the other IH customers.

Heavy kersey shawl cardigan. Heavy duty oversized buttons. Straight pocket slits on the front. Grey. Brown. Seasonal colorway.

I would buy one for sure.

@Chap UHR will be made again this year of i’m not mistaken but 18oz raw would be awesome

@Alex @Giles could the 18 oz vintage from the Shinya mill be made in a loomstate version?

[Alex]

@Chap Haraki is working on a new loomstate denim, we’re waiting to hear his ideas.

Awesome! Fantastic news!

We love getting all your feedback, and we read every post. And the reason we set this board up was to give you guys a platform to suggest things. But just because a person thinks that their idea is the best thing since sliced bread, does not mean it is.

To @FlavourFade 's point. Once upon a time, I thought that the forum guys were the absolute indicators of demand, but (I mean this in the nicest possible way guys) you aren't. I would listen to what was suggested, and I made a lot of it. Invariably the stuff ended up in the outlet. I was being influenced by the vocal cool-kids and was making what they wanted, unfortunately, no one else did. So now, as I said, we read every suggestion, but are a little more selective about what makes it to a sample and then production.

Another final point here, and it is one that I make often: Ask 100 people what their perfect anything would be, and you get 101 answers....
