      @Giles yes, and when it comes down to it, the proof is in the pudding. I couldn’t care less about recognition, but the best is the best because it’s the best, not because I was told so by someone who makes a profit telling me so. …I sure would like a GS…lol

        I am pretty sure that no one will ever recognise, let alone comment on my GS, and that to me is is perfect. In 8 or so years of pretty constant wear, only one person has commented on my 50 fathoms, again that is one of the reasons I love it.

          @Daniel-San While I agree IH has better materials / stitching than RRL, some of their styling / materials are just fire - like their roughout leather sueded pants or type 3 western shirts in roughout and regular leather. Plus, their hand tooled line is just to die for... boot.jpg

                  Mine would be the A2. It’s lower key than the N1. Warm enough for most cool days, but not too warm. Just slip it on and go. Leave it open, or zip it up. No fuss, no muss. Good pockets. Roomy and easy to wear. Practical enough that if something happened to it I wouldn’t be too put out.

                      1. My IH Silver Bangle. I don't have Iron heart for every situation (yet), but I always wear my bangle so I can say to myself that I'm always wearing Iron Heart.

                      2. My sneaky Iron Heart work Xmas gift. Every year for Xmas our boss takes us to the mall and we get to shop for ourselves for a couple hours. Many times over the years I have pre-bought something Iron Heart and snuck it into the final shopping reveal we do at dinner after the shopping trip. I have no regrets on this. My boss is rather lax about the shopping, and says if people want to leave the mall and go to a store nearby they can, I just choose to expand that a bit.

                      3. I'm sure many of us feel this way, but it's a secret pleasure for me seeing people that try and dress high end (loosely in the IH adjacent category), and I know they spent pretty high dollar on their flannel or workwear shirt from Dick's or Scheel's, but it's obvious that it's subpar material and doesn't fit them well. I sound like a Judgy Judgerson here, that's why it's a secret pleasure.

                              I agree with a lot of you that wearing Iron Heart is and of itself, my secret pleasure. But I also indulge my OCD by cataloging my IH collection in my Notes app. I record washes, measurements, evo…you name it. Not a huge secret as I know I’ve talked about the practice with @Mizmazzle screenshot of what it looks like

                                  I love that I can wear quality clothes and people see that, without them knowing the cost difference. Heritage just looks good quietly. The best way I can put it.

                                    @SKT that is very thorough! I discovered an app on the App Store called WearTracker a while ago which is purposefully made for this sort of thing and it has been incredibly satisfying for my OCD 😂 it keeps track of wears for each item and then lets you keep other notes for each item on its individual profile. Here is a quick screenshot of mine 🤓1059159F-F0C9-4162-8FB8-2C2628D69882.jpeg

                                      @DeeDee85 oh no…I did NOT need to learn about this! 😂 but honestly it’s one of the reasons we’re all here … to wear and “collect” these clothes and talk to others that share the same passion. Part of the fun for me for sure

                                        @SKT yeah dude. When you shared this with me it was a game changer. I catalogue my whole collection this way now with all the pertinent information and evo picture updates. I find it very satisfying.

                                        In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...
