Samples - New Products We Are Working On

Nice. I have the 816DD, that was a super rare score a while back.
But ever since I relayed the Type3 to @Oaktavia I secretly was on the hunt for one!

Now I'm only lacking the black duck Type3. And a raglan shirt. I'll see myself out to the 'What should we make' thread.

@SKT said in Samples - New Products We Are Working On:

That work pant cut is my absolute favorite. Same as 735 right?

Possibly/probably...

The OG's were called the IH-816DD. 816 for the cut, DD for the double indigo duck.

I based the cut on these:

https://forum.ironheart.co.uk/topic/2226/ih-816-17oz-duck-work-pants?_=1777550674597

IHUK did a load of 816 models in whipcord, then out of the blue, one day, H released the 735 in whipcord, why the rename*? Who knows. But the 735 is essentially the 816.

Edit * Probably because if we came up with an idea, Haraki very rarely took it because our ideas were our ideas and felt he should give us exclusivity to them. Over the years he has realised we don't give a jot about him selling "our" stuff, but he still always asks permission. Perhaps he thought we would not notice that he copied our idea by giving it a different number. But actually, all it did at the time was confuse people.

@tody Black duck type 3 is nice. Fingers crossed we'll see it made again some day!

[Giles]

I think the issue is our lack of ability to weave black duck. By that I mean, Haraki for some unknown reason, does not want to do it....

@AdamJ is the type iii modified? Just wondering if it will have hand warmer pockets

[Giles]

Tonallly stitched hand warmer pockets.......

[Larkens]

@AdamJ sounds like fun! Is it kinda like the lefty t3?

[Matt]

Although I love my black duck bibs it is frustrating how easily they pick up every piece of lint, dust, dirt, pet hair etc throughout the day. I would not own more than one item in that material personally. That said I could see myself being buried in those bins.

Also… 816 FTW!!!!!! These are an easy decision for me.

735 has been cut slimmer in the thigh than the 816. I can’t wear the new ones. I should qualify that to say the ancient beige and navy ones I had were bigger. Looking at the charts for the black ones and whipcord ones the thigh is skinnier.

[Giles]

I may have mistaken the 735 for the 720......

[Choko]

Those look great!

[will6er]

@AdamJ Wow.

The contrast stitching is insane on these!

[phoenixinflight]

@AdamJ They all look fantastic! Should we give up hope on a CPO made with this fabric?

[AdamJ]

@phoenixinflight it will be these ones for now, but never say never on CPO

[phoenixinflight]

@AdamJ appreciate the transparency! Looking forward to the DD updates as the type 1 has caught my eye

[JoshC]

For all you Double Duck lovers I have posted a few photos on the Type III forum thread here should you like to see the jacket worn in and how it fades, that we have here in our Hall of Fades/archives.

[Northman]

I really don't wanna be the guy but I am going to be the guy anyway. ETA on the DD type 3? Next year maybe?

[AdamJ]

@Northman haha, will be a while yet.

We will take pre-orders from our retailers soon, then subsequently submit our order to Japan. Then it goes into production.

"Next year" is the current working ETA

[Shane B]

@AdamJ Dude, these three items are so strong! Wow

[moskiitto]

@Shane-B I translated this to "yes iron heart germany will make pre-order for these"
