Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?

Sashiko cap

IHG-071 - Slimline Small Shell Cordovan Wallet without the middle insert (and with a corresponding reduction in price). I would just throw it in a drawer and never use it.

[Anesthetist]

@68degreesorless but you can use the insert as a Wallet itself if you need something slim for a suit pocket

[Anesthetist]

@ARNC def, we need more olive

[68degreesorless]

@Anesthetist interesting point

[Slash]

Fully wool lined Denim/Serge hoodie with zipper (pockets and hood also lined)

There really is a gap on the market for this imo. All alapaca/wool hoodie are too thin, or not durable, or simply not looking that great
I'm not creative enough to think of all the material that could be used for the outer shell of such a nice gear

[Appfaff]

@Anesthetist - Wallets are the bane of my existence. I've searched for decades to find the perfect one for me. I've concluded that a two piece set up is the best. A Full sized wallet for everyday wear, and a money clip when you need something for a suit jacket or a quick jaunt to and from the house. I've used the metal wallets (like ridge), full size bi-folds and currently a car carrier with a cash pocket.

@Slash - are you thinking along the lines of a Carhartt style zip front hooded jacket with front pockets? If so, that would be a really cool idea. Iron Heart did their "Award jacket" back in 2013/2014 and it was a banger - Duck outer, front entry pockets, blanket lined, etc. If they took the same idea and added a hood, and make the exterior in Serge instead of duck, I think that's what you are imagining? See mock up lol

Serge Outer Shell
Blanket Lined body + Hood
Paracord Hood Cinch
Storm Cuffs
Elasticated Bottom Opening
Blanket Lined Front Entry Pockets
Thinsulate lined sleeves
Elbow Padding/Reinforcement

@Appfaff Honestly like I said I'm not very creative, but one important point for me would be the real lining of the sleeves. I love my N1 but at some temperatures you really notice that the sleeves are unlined.

I'd prefer A2 like wool, but then maybe the damn thing would be closer to the soon-to-released parka than a hoodie in terms of bulk.

Nice sketch and +++ on the elbow reinforcements

[Appfaff]

@Slash - perhaps a combo of ventile + thinsulate could work for the sleeves. A few people have joked about a UHF lined Type 3 for ages, and maybe even something along those lines could work for the sleeves if it's like 10x brushed to get super fluffy!

[Slash]

@Appfaff Wow, UHF aspero double brushed full lining would be cra-a-azy

[Appfaff]

@Slash and probably expensive lol

[Slash]

@Appfaff Sure, but this would be a piece for eternity
But seriously you have a point, it needs to stay in a "normal" Hoodie price range, even à-la-IH, otherwise that might be a problem

[dirtyframer]

@Shane-B and crew should do a run of purple hoodies with the tiger logo

[Shane B]

@dirtyframer Purple or Magenta?
Not a bad idea for sure.

[dirtyframer]

@Shane-B dealers choice!

[moskiitto]

@Slash heatstraps workhorse?

[Slash]

@moskiitto Not bad ! Thx for this, a lot of brands I don't know since I'm in Europe and a lot of nice stuff never gets here.

Still would want to see what IH would do for such a piece
