The Evolution of Iron Heart

[phoenixinflight]

@don_pipone Absolutely lost it at this . It's certainly how it feels sometimes. There's no need to die on the hill for it when someone wouldn't appreciate or prioritise something like that in their life

@don_pipone really perfect fit and amazing pair of jeans. which UHR version is this and how many wears/washes? also looking perfectly comfortable right :D?

[don_pipone]

@noescapin thanks!
These are 777-UHR, so the older version. I think I have somewhere around 500 days in them and about 8 washes - could be more, could be less.
They have become super comfortable, almost sweat pant like.

@Oaktavia wow! Sick fades man
Those whiskers look amazing

@Oaktavia I'd use this as solid proof that double denim absolutely works - especially when the fades are this gorgeous

[Oaktavia]

@Vik oh for sure, I'm almost always wearing double denim!

@Oaktavia

If memory serves; didn’t you start the 888s a while before the shirt? If so, it’s wild how quickly the shirt has caught up to the jeans!

[Oaktavia]

@Go-For-Chill Yes I started the UHR 9 months prior to the CPO but I have been wearing them 50:50 with a pair of XHSib. The CPO has been worn more frequently in a shorter amount of time. For reference, the UHR have 282 wears and the CPO has 230.

@Oaktavia I’m a bit disappointed. I would have thought triple denim at the very least

[Oaktavia]

@Tago-Mago haha triple in the colder months for sure or double denim with duck

@Oaktavia i need one of those CPOs! man i swear none of my stuff gets that light. those jeans look amazin buddeh

[Oaktavia]

@WhiskeySandwich the UHR gets really white pretty quick!

[Oaktavia]

@don_pipone thanks homie, I appreciate the UHR love, brother in arms. Who wants a UHR type 2? This guy does. What are we if not for our dreams?

[phoenixinflight]

@Oaktavia I'd love to see that happen. Just waiting for the right kind of fabric before taking the Type 2 plunge. But the mill weaving UHR is ceasing operations reportedly, right?

@Oaktavia l e g e n d a r y !!

[Jett129]

@Oaktavia I had suggested an OD/UHR Vest,as the over dying would get all the shrinkage out, but I’m with you and would love to see a jacket/CPO/shirt made from that material.

[Oaktavia]

@phoenixinflight yeah I am just blowing smoke

@Alex @ShopatIronHeart will we know before the release/new stock is gone if this will be the last run or not? Was really wanting to get 18v this year, but have FOMO if UHR is going away

To the best of our knowledge, this will be the final run. We want to keep making it, but we have been told that it maybe too hard. I would plan on this being the last, if you want a pair.

[phoenixinflight]

@Oaktavia bit of wishful thinking, I guess! Stranger things have happened in the world of IH, surely but another reminder of the difficulty of weaving these heavy fabrics
