      I came up with the name and acronym. With hindsight, Black Fades to Grey (BFG) would have been way better.......

      In my opinion, the garments fades to grey, not white

        Will any more blanket or sherpa lined Type III jackets be coming in the near future?

        Pretty keen on getting one, ideally non-denim.

            Hi, noticed a small inconsistency between the what is uhr page and product pages

            https://ironheart.co.uk/pages/what-is-uhr?srsltid=AfmBOoqvdikYOoV2GzWoatCsayN-L9lbh9TwN-9wNE9zHOcf6SrkrYv0

              @harvestofgrief Good spot, I think it should say "is calculated at 21oz per square yard" then "becomes a denser 23oz"

              I'm sure all the info on the product pages is a pain to write in such detail!

                  Why no retailers in South America?

                    We have never actively recruited retailers, we want them to find us. Making the effort is half of the process of qualification. No retailers from South America have bothered.

                    And for the moment, if they did, the answer would be no. We cant make enough product as it is and have recently gone through a very painful retailer reduction exercise in an attempt to lessen the strain on the factories and keep stuff on the shelves longer for us and the remaining retailers.

                      I should have been clearer. I was more curious as to why no one has opened the kind of high end denim shop that would stock Iron Heart in SA. I thought about it, and speculated about pricing and GDP per capita, but then I thought, no, there are loads of huge cities and tons of rich people down here. And then I thought about the climate, but that can't be it - it's plenty cool for heavy denim in lots of places and that's never stopped anyone in SE Asia anyway. I couldn't really come up with an answer, so just thought I'd see if you had any guesses.

                        I suspect anyone with money in South America needs a "label".

                        Case in point. I bumped into a extraordinarily shallow and socially insecure (but very wealthy) acquaintance of mine in the pub, soon after I started working with Haraki. I was wearing OG IH-634S.

                        He said, wow those are really nice, but I would not wear them.
                        I said, Why?
                        He said, Because I have not heard of them
