Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
-
Some sort of winter hat would be nice.
Edit - not talking about houndstooth here! -
I would be pretty surprised if Haraki-San decided to do Houndstooth anything. Houndstooth is synonymous with The Flat Head and doesn't really fit into the IH aesthetic… IMHO
-
^^^^^
would of agreed before the 10 year anniversary shirts came out (ihsh 43).
anything is possible at the moment. . . .
as is the normal saying over here, no hate, blah, blah, blah, yawn & stretch
hahahahahahahaaha

Given the variety among the IH lineup this request seems a bit greedy, but I would jump at some murdered out superblack busters.
Now this would be a useful move for me…+1

here is something i've been wondering for a while…..is there any chance of TW OD's? I would DEFINITELY buy a pair of those.

TW does have a sulfur dye jean, here:

not OD'd, but bout as close as there is nowyou could get TW denim in an OD, but not for your legs…
the upcoming IHD-01 shirt-jacket made from the TW midweight denim
is going to come in an OD versionbit of a restructuring going on now with the TW line, will have to see where things go...
will there still be TW jeans coming?
the IH branded stuff is kinda crossing over into what used to be TW territory
see the new engineer jeans in the 16oz denim (the lightest weight for IH yet) -
yeah i saw those blue owl sulfur dyed ones. they are definitely too skinny for me. I was hoping for the 5310 in OD. I'd love to find out whats going on with TW for sure.

Hi, first post. Longtime lurker, but I don't think there's much to say about me personally. Thus no introduction in the dedicated thread, sorry. I hope it's not too rude to barge in with an idea of mine. I haven't read the whole thread (classic n00b mistake, I know) so I hope it's not been suggested before.
I love my German Army Parka and it has been one of my most beloved pieces of clothing ever since I bought it 7 years ago. Has always kept me dry and warm, even in it's current state (fucked up and in need of repair). This reliability is something I kinda associate with Iron Heart and I would really LOVE to see Haraki-san's spin on this.
Now, I personally don't give a fuck about repros. Anything goes. Brown or black cotton duck? Paraffin coated in olive like the messenger bags? 21oz Superblack? 21oz indigo? I think any of these options are potentially badass… The original parka is far from perfect. The hoodie for example is a real pain in the ass sometimes and should be far more adjustable. As soon as you remove the inner lining, the jacket feels like a chute... basically not wearable anymore. Etc......
Again, I hope nobody's pissed off because I haven't introduced myself properly anywhere on this board.

Holla, I like your style! No problem with that first post. Just hope it isn't the last…

Probably been covered before, but an enhanced IH Messenger Bag (of any size/colour) with additional clasp/zip fastening… I'm super paranoid about losing stuff from my bag
@riffblaster:

There is a pair of TW's od's… They were protypes I believe, i was lucky enough to win them in a forum auction. 32x35 but very, very slim fitting though, the thighs are a bit of a squeeze even for my wee legs. I'm wearing my pbj's a lot the now but when I go back to these for a bit i'll get some more pics up.

Wow, what a warm welcome, this board is really one of a kind….
Lando: we will see, still saving for my first Iron Heart pieces... Until I take the plunge, I will still feel like an outsider.
Seul: hey, I'm all for randomness, you guys are the life of the party, man... This board needs rather more than less of this!
Giles: awesome! BTW I lifted the pics off of rakuten.com, these parkas should be readily available in Japan, if he needs inspiration. Hell, I would even send him my old parka, if he wanted me to.

Haraki and I are working on a new line of luggage atm…..

Holla, great idea. I've owned a few of these over the years, ace coat & damn they were cheap, I'm sure i paid about £10 for a pristine one back in the late 80s. wore it constantly for about 3 years 'til i lost it in some heavy drinking misadventure :-\
had a black one too. would love to see what Haraki's take would be. oh, and welcome! -
Holla, Haraki would love to get hold of an old one if your are up for it.
now that's exciting!!
