      I’d personally love to hear the story of how a 14 oz Beatle Buster went into production due to overwhelming Forum support. You could even change the name of it to The Forum Cut

        I love hearing about these stories, especially in the earlier days. I could only imagine the " I made up a few things, but they all seemed forced and slightly bullshitty" has happened once or twice more and just makes it all the better 😂

          @Giles 🙂 At the risk of turning this into the "Ask anything thread" - do you find that 14 is essentially a gateway drug for your customers? They start on the 14 in one cut, find that they are way better than other stuff and wonder: just how good can 18 / 21 / 25 be!? And then the journey begins!

            Maybe we need a dedicated "Iron Heart Lore" thread.

            Yes!!!!

              It is certainly a gateway drug for some people, those that either don't want to spend 21oz plus money or don't believe that 21oz plus will be comfortable.

              @alex can give you detailed info if he has time. Currently bogged down in new website launch......

                Beatiful idea @Giles

                So many great IH stories that should be find in one place/book/podcast.

                • From the ‘IHD-01 - Special G Denim Version’ to the CPO line
                • Shuttle-loom woven flannel with a skew made into the glorious IHSH-129
                • The lost and found weaver for the UHF
                • …

                        @Giles amazing story, thanks for sharing this. I am a huge fan of the lighter weight options, especially as we move into summer. Persistence pays off! Can’t wait for those 14oz 1955s…

                          @Matt I like the idea of “The Forum Cut,” and I propose it be a forum exclusive. IDK how in the world that would work, but I like it.
