Bitch Please… FAKE Iron Heart?

[Matt]

One of my first purchases

[Matt]

Mines a medium and fits well. I wear mostly larges now and I think the initial reactions when they came out were that they ran large. Not overly so I’m sure yours will fit fine. The cuffs are long and are meant to be folded. Enjoy.

[Chibs]

Anyone know about this one?

Yes - I wear large in IH almost exclusively. This large is a bit...large! Don't think it is for me - I like it a lot but the fit is just too relaxed. I think a regular XL IH wearer would love this. Add to the sales pile

@Chibs never seen before, but looks really legit. mechanic shirts date back to the IHSH-25, or even earlier. @Giles may be the only one who could remember. there's always a chance he did not bring this specific model to the western world.

[Chibs]

@tody thanks man! It’s a pretty cool shirt. I really like that it’s got hand warmer pockets. Hopefully it’s legit!

[Giles]

Hmmmmm, can't remember that one. But as @tody says, I did not bring all the early mechanics shirts over to International......Though, if I had seen it, I would have got one myself

Isnt this logo later though, like around late 20-teens? I remember mechanic shirts with a more gothic style of writing. I think this shirt is legit, but def a Japan only piece.

[Chibs]

Awesome, thanks guys! It’s shipping from Japan ordered on EBay. Really looking forward to this one.

[Giles]

I've asked H.......But his memory is worse than mine

[goosehd]

@Giles …that’s because you two (technically 3) have lived a life of adventure that most of us only dream of. Scuba with a manta ray will trump the details of a one off shirt anytime.

[Chibs]

@Giles Thanks Giles, if it helps there’s also a tan one with the same print and hand warmer pockets.

[Giles]

I like that one too

Yeah, I don't think that logo is all that old.

These eBay sellers grab the items off of shopping sites in JP. In case of the last one:
https://buyee.jp/item/jdirectitems/auction/d1233693997
I have yet to find the green one over there.
But buying directly there through buyee skips the ebay-middleman and might be cheaper. That's how I do it, at least.

[Chibs]

@tody this makes a lot of sense as to why the seller had to check his “warehouse” when I asked him a question. Up until I bought it there were other listings at different prices of the same shirt, same measurements and photos. It’s clear now as to why that was. Ya learn something new every day

[tody]

@Chibs for the sake of your budget/sanity/marriage, avoid the JP proxy sites at all cost. you cannot imagine what you‘ll find there. hairline duck, 25oz vests, the 64 and other gems…

[Matt]

Tariffs have significantly helped my marriage.

[Chibs]

@tody OOHH raising my hand for 25oz vests!!

[Giles]

I got a

From Haraki, none the wiser I am afraid......
