Thanks, a size L just popped up on eBay (I'm searching for a Black/Black N1 Deck Jacket). I was tempted but decided to leave it!

@goosehd lol

Not had the chance yet! But I recently became a Liveryman in the Worshipful Company of Plaisterers and apparently I can get a spot to do some sheep rustling (wrestling!) across London Bridge next year!!!!!

I have seen these pants stands(?) on display outside of IH stores via IH staff blogs. I would love to make one or more if possible to display my heavily faded pairs. Does anyone know what these are exactly? Are there findable images of these pants stands without jeans on them so I can see what the setup actually is? Or ideas to make something similar? I suppose I could find most if not all of the metal materials at a hardware store. Thanks in advance y'all.

@Oaktavia We've built two replicas for our store in Hamburg, and I have some photos of the original from Japan. Feel free to email me at info@ironheartgermany.com and I'll send you the photos.

Is it possible to use indigo on mercerised cotton?

[Alex]

@Karol I don't see why not, but I don't think we will be rushing to make indigo chinos if that is where you were going with this

@Alex
I was more thinking about a T-shirt…

Or maybe something more unusual - mercerised denim? Has that ever been done?

I bought a second hand deck vest online and it was shipped with 2 of these button extenders.

It had some stains not described in the listing, which they admitted to, and I sent it back. The seller then refunded me £50 less as I didn’t send back the button extenders, as they are ‘exclusive to iron heart’ and can’t be replaced. I have never seen these before.

Is this true?

[goosehd]

@ironmind Personally, I have never seen button extenders offered from Ironheart. I am tagging @Giles for confirmation as I have been wrong before.

To add to this I had them both this morning and was going to send them back, but one has gone missing (think my toddler has taken it and put it somewhere )

@goosehd

Thanks, neither have I - think he’s trying to pull a fast one to pay for the dry cleaning!

[Giles]

We have never sold them…..

[ironmind]

@Giles Thanks for confirming

Hello,

I need some advice for a great wool crew neck pullover. I am looking for a high quality wool crew-neck, preferably in olive without any logos. Something René Herse might have worn randonneuring :). Maybe something from the Hebrides? A wool sweater that I can use in the great outdoors as well as in the classroom would be nice :).

@RobeOfTheMagi Check out the Dehen sweaters. There are not too many with crew necks but they have been making wool motorcycle sweaters since the 1940s.

@Giles @goosehd I screenshotted this conversation and the seller gave me a full refund, he thought they were part of the jacket so probably an honest misunderstanding.

It’s hard not to love IH with CS this good!

Cool........
