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

[Alex]

@94atromero it has not... Nice idea for a denim redo, though

[Matt]

Like the one I wore today! It’s amazing.

[Gavin666]

Sashiko type 3

[tody]

I know what it is, but wtf would you call this piece?

mixture between a vest and a jacket, so - a vacket?

[Giles]

No, a jest.....

No, a jest.....

I had to look up that word. I laughed.

[Tago Mago]

@Giles how about a matching cap?

[mclaincausey]

Dant had a washed out image of IHSH-370-BLU and I gotta say it looks pretty good to me.

Looks more like a shirket to me…

[mclaincausey]

It looks like the most objectionable IH garment I’ve ever seen to me.

[Giles]

Funnily enough, I sort of like it. Would I wear it? Then that is another question.....

[Tago Mago]

@Giles does it come with matching shorts?

[Matt]

I saw that and immediately thought it was terrible. I was relieved to see that the translation called it “unlikely.”

[Giles]

@Matt This is the translation I get

I tried making a short-sleeved trucker jacket with black armor, which I've never seen before, an
it turned out surprisingly well.
This might be useful from spring to summer.
What do you think ?
Is it okay?

So I think he is saying that it sort of unique and it has not been done before.....

[goosehd]

@Giles maybe there's a reason for that (unique and it has not been done before)...

[Giles]

I for one am absolutely fucking delighted that he has done this. Just because it has not been done before, does not mean he should not try. Haraki pushes the envelope and more often than not, others follow. We all know that we have released stuff that does not sell, only to see other brands selling it like hot cakes a few years later......

I bet Belichick would rock one

No Doubt. Push those boundaries Haraki !

[goosehd]

When Haraki does these side projects, does he have a team close by that mocks them up so that he can oversee them personally making tweaks to the design as it's being put together? What happens to the mock up's that don't come to fruition?

[Giles]

Oh, and when he showed me the IH-805 sample, I thought he had been smoking something a stronger that his normal Marlborough Menthols. But he made them anyway, no retailers took any from the initial run, and they sold like absolute crap, then (with the help of the @madmike effect), they took on a life of their own, and basically we cant make enough of any fabric iteration.....
