Might be old news but the owner of S.O.P an iron heart retailer was in a very bad motorcycle accident.

I did not know — thanks for posting this. Just read up on it on Insta, sounds like he's got a rough road ahead of him but will be ok. I've bought from SOP many a time over the years, and he's a super nice guy.

Fuck drinking and driving.

Really dig those heartbreaker boots , it says they run bigger .
Any sizing experiences from someone?

S.O.P. has some great IH items on their last chance page right now. I have something en route. They also add an extra 15% off at checkout. some deals to be had.

It seems like SOP lost their account? Quite the bummer.

My guess and speculation is that since some had to go, the decisions made on which retailer adheres to what has been agreed and who doesnt. I.E. Showing information about S/S products ealier
than agreed.

Idk just mad speculation and I really don't wanna stir anything but thats what I thought immediately after reading this.

@JerkStore if you're asking the question, you probably know the answer..

[JerkStore]

@Alex I dont. That's why I asked.

Too many “What’s crackalackin’s.”

Sorry, I couldn’t resist. I’ve shopped there online for years, and he’s buddies with some people I know in ATL, so no disrespect.

Over the past few years, demand for Iron Heart has continued to grow, which is something we are incredibly grateful for. At the same time, producing our clothing to the standards we insist on has become increasingly challenging, and many of you will have noticed that certain items sell out quickly and take longer than usual to return.

Our priority has always been, and remains, to protect the integrity, quality, and longevity of Iron Heart. To achieve this, we have been making several adjustments behind the scenes. These changes are being made carefully and deliberately, with one clear goal: to ensure Iron Heart remains here, producing the best products possible, for many years to come.

As part of this work, you may see some changes to where Iron Heart is available. In some regions, fewer retailers will be carrying the brand than before. This is not about exclusivity or creating hype; it is about reducing pressure on our partners in Japan and building a more stable, sustainable network of suppliers where Iron Heart can be showcased in its best light — and, hopefully, with improved stock availability compared with what we currently have.

We are not, and will never, compromise on quality, cut corners, or manipulate supply. Quite the opposite: every decision we’re making is focused on protecting the health and future of the brand.

Thank you, genuinely, for your patience, support, and trust while we work through this period.

The above is very clear why painful decisions had to be made with speculation only leading to rumours and hurt feelings benefiting no one. Please take a minute to read why those decisions had to be made.

Thank you.
