IHG-056-IND - 21oz selvedge denim apron

seawolf

World Tour Apron, circa 2012?

The patch was tattooed by one of the tour participants.

And it was signed by everyone that participated in the tour, although the signatures are a little faded at this point.

@seawolf oh wow, it's cool to see this. I like how there are slight differences between this one and the current version, pocket-wise. Making knots on the end of the straps makes a lot of sense. I'm going to knot mine on Monday when I go to work. Thanks for sharing this.

@seawolf this is incredible!! I love those old school Iron Heart history pieces! So much cooler than a history book!!

@Oaktavia And this version has large grommets that the apron "strings" go through which differs from the other versions that have stitched-on loops. Glad to be able to share it!

@Mizmazzle This apron has been around the world on the world tour, and around again on my deployment in 2017-2018, so it's had quite a journey over about a dozen years. And I've used it for so many things and get compliments on it all the time. It's quite a piece!

Wore this to work last school year teaching art to public school kids. Three washes and I did not clock wear days. I wore it intermittently throughout the day so I didn't add that all up. I'll just count school years. One down!
