Introduce Yourself Here

@mmerkle Welcome! Now that it's been 5 days - is your closet full and wallet empty yet? I still feel the pull multiple times a week to buy something I know I don't need, and early on that pull was much stronger. We should start an IH Anonymous recovery group sometime lol

Hello、I’m Max from Portland. I’ve been a fan of Iron Heart for a while, and just recently picked up my first bits from the company over the past few months. I’m looking forward to nerding out on denim and related topics with yall in the future!

Looks like you need this thread.....

@indigo_fades the heart wants what the heart wants…

Not quite yet, but already trying to decide what wallet leash/chain suits me.

Hello, I am D.K. and I am from Indonesia. I actually made this account last year, but I decided to make my first post here after getting a pair of IH-888-UHR. It was between the UHR or the SBG. Maybe next time, SBG! I recently visited Tokyo and did a little denim shopping. Unfortunately, I couldn't go to the Iron Heart's Hachioji store because it is a bit hard to get there and my time was limited. I will make sure to visit Osaka for my next trip though (maybe I can even meet Haraki-san himself). I joined this community for the lore!

Besides the 888, some Iron Heart articles which I really like are:

• The flannels
• IH-728-IND
• IH-101J-SR
• IHJ-122J-IND

@decaysheart 888UHR was a fantastic choice. I have been wearing my pair of 888UHR along with 888XHSib for a year now and they are amazing heavyweight jeans. Welcome to the forum.

@decaysheart Hello and welcome among us, I'm Luigi

Hello, I’m Tom in Columbus, Ohio, US. I’m brand new to raw denim despite observing denim culture for quite a few years. Just got my first pair of selvage jeans (non-IH) and I’m delighted. Now I am on the hunt for a winter coat and I’m set on IH’s N-1 deck jacket. I’ll be looking for advice on sizing here.

Thanks in advance!
Tom

@tfldad Welcome! I'm also interested in the N-1 deck jacket, need to wait for sizing to be posted though once the guys measure them when they actually have them ready to sell and post it up, I recommend setting a notification for it on the webpage and also checking the Calendar (up top on the forum) to see when it releases (and when other items release) they normally update every week or so depending on what's dropping/getting restocked

I only got into raw denim last year, but IH is my favourite brand and I find nothing else compares in terms of quality... (I kinda went wild and have a new wardrobe lol)

Anyway welcome and nice to meet you!

@tfldad welcome Tom. The best people start their IH journey with an N1 (maybe I’m biased)! As well as the published measurements, the IH crew in Gosport are the best at guiding you through sizing questions so don’t be shy about making direct contact as well as seeking forum wisdom.

@tfldad Hi Tom, I'm Luigi, nice to meet you and welcome

@tfldad welcome! It’s a slippery slope, N-1 today, new flannels tomorrow

[tfldad]

@ARNC Is Gosport the forum or a store? Thanks for the advice!

[tfldad]

@Jord I see some stock still available at a few online stores. Is that from previous years? I had the impression 2025 already dropped but these threads range so far back it’s easy to get confused. Thanks for the suggestions!

[Jord]

@tfldad I think that would be from previous years depending on version,these are this seasons

[goosehd]

…and none of F/W 25 N1 jackets have been released yet.

[tfldad]

@Jord ahah! Yep, I’ve been looking at the OD, khaki w/ dark wool, and Army green ones… they’re all great tho.

[catdad1]

@Denimhead-0 and discovery of heavyweight jeans next week!

[ARNC]

@tfldad Gosport is where Iron Heart’s outside-Japan / rest of world operation is based. The guys there are on the forum but you can also email/call/live chat for any product / sizing info and advice. Details are here.
