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

Thanks for the insight and reply!
I can imagine it is really hard to find the right balance between demand and supply like you've said, and not all items will sell as expected.
Thank you for considering this and hearing me.
IH is indeed one of the only Japanese brands to offer larger sizes and great quality items, I consider myself lucky (or unlucky? you should ask my wallet) you are even doing this so for now I'll keep setting my alarm clock for the item's I really want to have.
We will try and get better

I'd love to see IH make a loosely woven 14 oz denim geared towards summer wear… something like the 16 oz vintage denim, but in 14 oz. (A re-release of the 16 oz vintage jeans would also be great.)
Also, I saw that Rox has an IH coffee mug. I'd totally pick up one of those if you decided to re-run them.

The slubby 16oz is a perfect summer weight denim IMO…..Better than the vintage 16....
Huh, I hadn't considered that. Thanks for the info.

[mention]BlueBlood [/mention] I can 100% back up Giles statement. I wore the 777 sample all through June and July last year going hiking. They breathe very well and much more than the 14oz Ib denim I have.
Thanks, @Fadez ! I just read through the 16 oz SLB thread and was pretty blown away with the fade progress of the samples. Hope your leg is better now and you're not experiencing any Lyme symptoms (one of my wife's friends has it).
I have to admit that I hadn't put much thought into the SLB jeans until you and Giles brought them up. I've been looking for a good year-round fading project and those have Indigo Invitational written all over them. So I'm probably going to snag a pair of 777s when they're released. Thanks!

Thanks for asking man. It has “healed” but since the infection site was pretty rough the docs said I’ll never have 100% strength left back in that area with my skin. It just stinks because it is right on my calf so extended walks and hikes can fatigue it quicker than normal. So far so good with the actual Lyme. I’m sure I’ll get another panel down the road just to be doubly sure. I’m hoping to get back on the hiking routine once the weather breaks again. Like you I plan to rock the Slubs for the indigo invitational if I can hold out for that long. They’re such an amazing denim and fun to wear that it feels like that pairs stares back at me being all hung up with tags on it. You are for sure going to enjoy them! Stoked for you to pick up a pair!

Good to hear that the Lyme doesn't seem to be an issue for you (fingers crossed for the long-term).
Also looking forward to everyone's progress pics with the SLB denim.

Godspeed @Fadez ; with Lyme it can always be worse. It is a frightening illness and I hope your recovery continues and you get back to 100%!

I'm sure this has been suggested before, but any chance of a vest (as in singlet) in the same 6.5 oz as the tees? For those of us in the hotter climes it'd be a summer staple.

I think if you picked up 2 tees or even the biggest one they make in the color you like, you could take that to a skilled tailor and have a custom fit just for you. Added bonus of picking out your own buttons or snaps. Just a thought

Longshot, but I would kill for some 805's in SBG.

Thanks, but i don't quite understand what you are suggesting. Why "two tee or even the biggest one you like"? I'm talking about a vest, or tank top - by definition slim fitting.
And tbh, much as I love Iron Heart i'm not paying a tailor to make me a tank top. Will stick with Bonds (Australian version of Hanes).
