I love this brown-quickly-overdyed color! If the lining were wool it would be a must have for me. I just have a hard time with synthetic material in clothing...

@jimcord yeah, i think we will look at that for future collections. A lot of the retailer love Adam mentioned yday was for the fabric rather than the overall item (sorry to debunk @ARNC 's theory) as they often struggle with N1 Vests. Let's see how FW25 goes, and you may see a return in a future season

Just curious on your thoughts, the faux collar was chosen, so it could be easily laundered, but do you think that it being synthetic that will hold the product back from success? Do you think a different material choice would make a difference in peoples minds and if so, could it be changed in time?

@Alex surely everyone that works out, runs etc has polyester clothing, all of the puffa coats you see around are synthetic. So many synthetic items out there chances are those that feel “strongly” about them will have at least one piece at home.

Funny enough, this is what brought me to IH. Last year I decided to get rid of all synthetic from my closet. I donated every item I had with any % of polyester on the tag. Even my underwear and workout gear is now 100% natural.
This was all motivated by a shift in mentality to take the best care of my body that I could. Not wearing plastic against my skin was part of that. I also changed my diet at the time and have lost 40 lbs!
Along with the fabric choices, I decided to omit all fast-fashion items and only buy clothes from makers that took pride in what they were producing. That is how I found Iron Heart.

@Go-For-Chill and glad you did!
Ditto, brother! I’ve been blown away both by the passion you and your team put into what you produce, and the community behind it all.

The people on this forum are so amazingly refreshing, so many different thoughts and opinions yet respectful towards one another! I truly love reading these threads!

Personally, I cannot wear wool without being covered in an itchy rash. So I personally don’t mind synthetic. I’m sure it’s of the highest quality.

Are we secretly brothers……i too went on a health journey, for me it was losing 110 pounds! Fitness, diet and am completely transparent, one of the weight loss drugs to help.
Changed my wardrobe to clothes of all natural fibers as much as possible and tried to pick style from vendors/designers that I resonated with.
All of this change in weight, attitude, wardrobe, desire for quality over quantity all led me to Iron Heart and a few others. A journey that started on January 18th, 2023 and ongoing. -

Ha! Great minds and such!Congrats on the accomplishment! I did the drug as well. I do it in cycles. Usually about 30 days on, and 6-12 months off. I really just use it to help me reprogram my thinking around food from time to time.
My mentality for clothing (and food) is “I care about me, so you must as well.” That’s why IH clicked with me.
