@sabergirl tumble dryer! Fortune favours the brave.. I am still in the drip dry camp

[Jett129]

@AdamJ My jeans go in the dryer,and most of my shirts are hang dry.

[Brian]

Hang dry everything here for most of the year maybe undies and socks in the dryer or if things are needed quickly but normally preparation does the job with the washing cycle

My 10 cents worth. Vintage fades are achieved by lots of wear and frequent washing and being drip dried. Vintage fades are not caused by minimal wear and then aggressively washing and putting in the spin or tumble dryer. Nothing wrong with either approach, but they give different results.

Much like naval ratings don't waiti until the end of a posting to drop their N1 at the local dry cleaners, I don't suppose the cowboys of old had much access to tumble dryers.

I really fancy fading a new denim jacket this spring and summer. However, there aren’t really any new drops in the near future, are there?

Why am I thinking about the Village People having a party in a laundromat?

@RobeOfTheMagi Well, funny you was thinking this, as we do have a new denim jacket coming out for Spring Summer 26, here is a link to the product page below, absolutely delightful for spring summer with the blend of fabrics.

@RobeOfTheMagi the 122 and 123 are coming out too (14oz indigo/OD work jackets)

[Jerry3times]

@northsouthdenimguy thank you for your input. I was thinking something similar regarding the temperature. I’m eagerly expecting the 8.5 but also think that I’ll definitely grab the 12oz if it becomes available before I run out of money .
How would you describe how the different fabrics feel/compare?

[Jerry3times]

@Aetas I was hoping that someone would recommend owning both!

[Jerry3times]

@Jett129 which IH jeans are those? I like the width at the bottom.
My 633s are a little too wide for my taste and will be looking for something with a little narrower taper but that isn’t also a skinny jean

[Jett129]

@Jerry3times Both of those are 555s from about 14 years ago. If you would like I can check any measurements so you have some point of reference when you start looking. They are both a Tag size 36.

Just saying, the forum seems to be acting differently tonight. When I entered the forum, there was an accept cookies message , then I had to log in. And then the forum seems to be acting different. Maybe it's just me.

[goosehd]

@ROman I haven’t seen it on my end, but will keep my eye open.

[Giles]

Nor me.....

[ROman]

Seems to be fine now. I don't know what was happening. Probably operator error.

Any chance Iron Heart might re release the IHM31 or IHM34 at some point?

Cheers

@Briggtopp FYI, I have moved your question here. @ShopatIronHeart anything in the works?
