Theme Week March 2-6 - Show us What You've Got....

[Twistlock]

My first IH, black wabby vest and M65, got them in 2015 at Vater & Sohn (along with the 3sixteen chambray i am wearing today.

My first Iron Heart is the IHSH-46

[goosehd]

I had looked for a few years for a good pair of overalls and to no avail could find what I wanted. Somehow, I found a picture of @Filthy2123ozjunkie wearing a pair and fell in love with them. To this day, I can’t put my bibs on without thinking of him.

Love you Mike!! ️

my very first bit of IH silver

[tody]

My very first purchase of an IH piece was the 218. Must have been in 2020, and it is starting to come along nicely. Not fading per se, as expected. But showing signs of wear quite noticeably. Thought it would be fitting to put on an all black outfit.

@Twistlock - I got my first IH, 634 OD black, at Vater & Sohn in 2016. Great shop.

On the way back from the Gym, and the closest I can get to claiming I am wearing Iron Heart is the OGL watch. Edit, oh wait I am wearing an Olive IHT-1600.....

BUT, the main reason for the shot, is that our Suzuki Kei Truck, "Big Suze", is resplendent in her first Iron Heart coverall.....

[Pygmalion]

My first. Year 2010, times when the IH-homepage was black and simple.

[Giles]

It's simple because I coded it

[goosehd]

@Pygmalion in my above picture, you’ll see that I’m wearing my hickory engineer hat. Something else I had sought out for years and couldn’t find.

I ran across a guy wearing one around this early IH time period and asked him where he got it.

Went onto the internet and after taking a look at the site, said no way in hell am I doing this…

Hey Casey, where did you park the train?

[Tago Mago]

First two pieces, both bought January 2021 direct from IHUK

220-IND
666-21

[Jack]

My first piece is long gone I'm afraid so no fade pics! but I picked up the 666 x R&H 21oz pair from the Fitzrovia store around 2014 from Junior, long before I ever worked there and indeed Iron Heart, I wore them to death for about three years non stop, until they had holes, and multiple repairs by Chesson, then I fucked up and hemmed them too short so they where unwearable and had to sadly let them go on eBay, gutted I don't have any photos because they looked great, but that's the pair that really got me started on Iron Heart.

[tenuin]

First was a 666-21 I bought from the good folks at Burg und Schild in, I want to say, 2021. I've since sold them because they became much too big for me. Replaced them with a 777-21 in 2022 from Statement which I still rock as my main pair, even though they too are running quite large on me at this point.

First shirt must have been a Johnny Cash III, which I still have though is on the chopping block because that one, too, does not fit me anymore (you may see a pattern emerge here)

[Giles]

OK. My first ever pieces, circa August 2005.

OG, IH-526J...

Naughtiness...

Retro applied pimpage...

Wreckage (notice the non Iron Heart branded tack buttons)....

And me gazing (probably wistfully) at my OG IH-634S on display in Self Edge San Francisco (in what looks like a Triple Works denim western).....

[goosehd]

But to be fair, Internet commerce was novel around that time and buying anything where you couldn’t put your hands on it first seemed strange.

[Larkens]

My first IH item was the IH-526J in 2023 (kinda new here) it won me over in seconds and convinced me it needed (a lot) companions

[americanathreads]

First IH piece was the IHSH-288 Kersey work shirt in July of ‘22. Was so impressed with the fabric and construction.. it made me an immediate IH loyalist.

First Iron Heart Item:

IH-634S-14II

Long gone but I appreciated the deep blues in this piece.

@worn2fade 37’s? Very nice setup!!
