Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
-
@endo I'm just really throwing ideas out into the ether. I totally understand how that's never going to happen. After listening to @Giles and @Alex on the podcast, I realize how loopy most of my posts on this thread are.
And thanks for the advice, as it happens I already do that, I need the sleeves on every shirt shortened by my tailor... It's a thing. But worth it. It's all worth it.

@Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot Good idea,
. I would like that too, a bib in corduroy. In a nice brown, not too dark. -
A corduroy Sherpa trucker, preferably a type II, not too dark brown, boa flee lined!
-
@BumbleBee-MP At the very least I think an Indigo (Think IHSH-161) Corduroy Type 2 would be pretty sick. Also you can’t go wrong with black either.

DUDE...a corduroy T2 would be killer!

I love all these corduroy ideas. I love the stuff, but that fat-wale stuff is a no-no. The heavier the better!

@scarfmace Seconded!

It's a really difficult thing to do with any hope of getting demand right. We have done loads of variants of the M65, so we would thus have to make hoods for all variants (because if we did not, you can bet your bottom dollar that someone would bitch) and we would have to guess how many to make of each variant. Well, that's sort of what we always have to do but there is a significant difference here, if we make too many shirts (for instance), we still have an item of clothing to sell at a discount, if we make too many hoods, we only have a hood to sell.
Years ago, H said to me in a very pleased tone of voice, that he was going to make an M65 with an optional liner. I asked him what the fuck he was going to do with a load of unsold liners at the end of the season. He decided it was not such a good idea after all....

Has IH ever made a pair of swimming shorts? I was sat on the beach last week wishing I was wearing IH.
In my mind the pattern would be based on the IH-726 cargo shorts, but made out of a quick drying blend with a little stretch for comfort while swimming. I prefer the kind of swim shorts that go over a pair of speedos (rather than that ghastly sewn-in netting) and I like to be able to pat them down with a towel after a swim, and only have to wait another 10-30 minutes for them to be dry enough to put my shit in the pockets and head straight to a bar or restaurant.
Edit: and one of the back pockets should have a zipper closure, e.g. for cash to be safe when swimming.

Have you ever sold banners?
Would definitely love to have a big sheet of IH denim with the IH logo. 21oz, 25oz, 19L you name it.Would be a cool reference as well, to compare the untouched denim with whatever item you're wearing as it's fading.
(Perhaps a good use for some of the rejected/imperfect denim, if you'd rather use the good stuff for clothing, and Haraki would allow it)

How about a waxed CPO. Either canvas or denim.
