        @Werder:

        How many people here ride a bike and an IH…
        or better is IH a motorbike product or a fashion object for the
        individual denim 'wearer' .........just thoughts of the moment

        Dunno, of regular posters here, me and Nemesis are bikers. Must be couple more. And Denim Sailor with his MOD rocket Vespa 😉

        I must say this now, they stopped producing real Harleys in 1965. And I hate MoCo.

          @ Werder: Fashion? No, as that implies following trends and changing wardrobe according to the current fashion to me. And non of the users here sees denim or IH gear as trend. In sense of looking for quality, outlasting and incredibly good looking clothing, than yes, that's what all of us do here. That's also why Giles didn't take part in this ominous lookbook, thank god.

          Bikes? As IJ said, there are some bikers here, but even if IH's roots lie in the bike scene, must of us would agree, that riding a bike is not a must for wearing IH. But, tbh, I am even more thinking of getting a motorbike since I joined this forum.

            GO FOR IT.  (Despite what I said in my previous post, Sportsters make real nice hardtail bobbers)

            That'll be a life long adventure which will change everything for you.

              Fashion to me just means clothing. But I've noticed a lot of members here relate the word to trend/fads.

              We're all here because we want to be fashionable which to me means looking good in clothing and enjoy fine quality.

                To me good clothing and fashion are two completely different types.

                Fashion: (borrowed from SuFu)


                Good clothing: See IH WAYWT

                @ IJ: Yes, I'm sure it will. Unfortunately I am a) pretty much broke each month and b) untalented when it comes to mechanical skills. I would not want to ride a modern spaceship motorcycle, but some old ride with character. And that's where my missing skills come at me…

                  Definition of fashion from Wikipedia:

                  a general term for a currently popular style or practice, especially in clothing, foot wear or accessories. Fashion references to anything that is the current trend in look and dress up of a person

                  I would strongly argue that Iron Heart is not fashion.  We do not care what is "in fashion". nor do we look at what is happening in the fashion world.  We aim to create clothing that you will look as good in in 20 years as you do today.

                  I've said it before on this forum.  Once when asked in an interview, "What do you think the fashion trends in denim will be next year", may answer was "I don't give a fuck"

                    Thanks for clarifying again, that's what I wanted to express in my post above.

                      Stop spending too much on, dare I say…clothing.  😉 Your wardrobe is good for another year as it is now.

                      I think there's pretty good variety of Sporties for example, to be had in Germany for quite fair price.

                      Or then get brand new Iron 883. You just ride that 😉

                      Mechanical skills develop while you're at it. There's tons of good forums to ask Q's and ofcourse you can always ask me and pay in used quality clothes....

                      There is never good reason NOT to buy a motorcycle...

                      (Or check if you can find a Kawa W650 for a reasonable price. Fun lil' bike)

                        I see, i need to save up a bit more and read more about bikes. Since I was a kid, when something was interesting for me, I kept reading everything I could find about it. That's why I joined this and other forums, and I think I need to do that for bikes, too.

                        Good to know, that I couls also ask you, hehe…

                          got my 9634Z soaking wet this very morning on the way to work and the trusty denim now
                          soaks my chair....

                          What can I say riding a bike in rain with IH denim is rather satisfying!

                                          Well it would seem that my use of the world "fashion" is completely wrong but in my defence English is my 3rd language 🙂
