Iron Heart X Simmons Bilt Horsehide Western Shirt - The Pale Rider - Natural

[Alex]

Still working on a sample that we are happy with

[FlavourFade]

Take your time @Alex I need to save up for the new pale rider haha

[Mizmazzle]

@Alex interesting. Does this mean that the blattwerk leather isn’t the leather of choice moving forward?

[Alex]

It is, just the colour thats the issue

[Karol]

Sorry if this was answered earlier, but is the new leather also a horsehide?

[Mizmazzle]

@Karol the title says it is…the same sample of this leather I received from SB was horsehide as well…so I’d say that yes…

[indigostiff]

@Karol From photos I have seen online, the "new" doesn't appear as structured as the "old" -- and the "new" has a much more pebbled / textured appearance. The "old" is definitely a unique bird.

[Karol]

@Mizmazzle Thanks 100 times thanks. I was uncertain about the title as it was originally about the old model. Having that confirmed I don't think I will be able to further resist this when its out.
@indigostiff I was fighting with myself about the old one, but other priorities made me postpone the purchase until the pieces that were left had to many inconsistencies between the panels for my liking. I guess I should say that the risk I took was calculated, but unfortunately I'm bad at math.

[Mizmazzle]

@Karol Yea buddy! I hope I didn't come across as sounding "Snarky" That surely wasn't my intent.

[Karol]

@Mizmazzle Are You kidding? Its a perfect answer when You are certain of it. I just always try to get to the bottom of things, and when its still the development phase I didn't want to rely only on the thread title.

[Alex]

@Karol https://www.ironheart.co.uk/jackets/ihsb-wj.html this leather, but natural

[Karol]

@Alex holly fuck, now I get the ''more buttery'' comment from earlier. Well I need to put few quids on the side then. Thanks for the insight!

[Karol]

@Alex are You happy with the color or is the development still in progres?

[Alex]

Once we are, you will know because there will be a 'restock'

[matt_rost]

Only worn for 49 days for the Redline Rally and the shirt is developing slowly. From now on it can be a shirt for every day due to the temperatures.

[doubletee]

@matt_rost possibly my favourite IH shirt. Enjoy the process man

[denim-dawg]

@matt_rost Looksfantastic mate

[matt_rost]

@doubletee It's quite an experience to see how the process noticeably progresses from one week to the next. And it fits like a dream. That's why I feel the same way

[matt_rost]

@denim-dawg If it doesn't end up being the most worn-out specimen, then maybe it's the most interesting one

[denim-dawg]

@matt_rost Well put! It’s getting as much wear as I can muster, my fellow rider, and I love it. A unique bird that flies in its own direction….
