I see the last post in this thread is from almost five years ago and I want to ask if there is a store in Frankfurt which has some Iron Heart clothing to offer. I will be visiting Frankfurt with friends this weekend and I will be happy to check some stuff while around. I will also probably pay a visit to some of the places mentioned in the first post. In general, if there are some new interesting places/stores in Frankfurt, I would appreciate some info and recommendations.

B47 is the real deal, but no IH as far as I know. Instead you can get some German and local stuff that is not available elsewhere easily. Check e.g. Blaumann Jeanshosen (in particular their denim shirts), or silver jewelry from local artisan Ralf Kellenberger.

The Red Wing store there may be worth visiting, too. I believe it's the oldest outside the US, the oldest one in Europe at least. Has been around for decades.

B74 is definitely worth going. No IH stuff as mentioned. It’s a bit hidden but there is a big sign outside.

If you taste the local food be warned: some of it (e.g. Handkäs mit Musik) and some of the local "cider" (Apfelwein, or Ebbelwoi) is an acquired taste!

Wow, thanks for your recommendations guys. I think I will get to most of the places mentioned in the comments today. Thanks a lot!

Guys, just my short story about Frankfurt: I went to visit the b74 store and Red Wing store in downtown. Those are really great places. The Red Wing store was packed with people. I was kinda surprised because it is getting warmer now and still a lot of people were trying some really nice boots and heavy shoes. I am in love with the 8111 Iron Rangers now and I will go for them at some point..
The b74 store is pretty difficult to find (not so difficult if you are using a navigation app of course :)) but is a very very special place at the heart of Frankfurt. Great looking store with nice atmosphere. I spend some time there exploring the collections and although I was not planning to buy anything, I ended up purchasing two Merz b. Schwannen tees

I followed the recommendations from the very first post in this thread and went for a delicious Wiener schnitzel in Salzkammer - Austrian cuisine, great beer and nice personnel.

All in all, happy to spend some time exploring those places.
