Wondering if there has ever been talk of bringing a mid weight fleece, like 9 or 10 oz, into production? I wear my 14 oz hoodies all the time but I also run kind of hot and as soon as spring rolls around I have to ditch them. I think there would be a market for them (and that market is me).

Given how s**t most umbrellas are (even the ones that claim to be the ‘strongest’)…

I’d do @tody one better and say a run of bibs with a longer torso for western bodies—longer straps, taller bib, maybe even higher rise? I know it’s unlikely to happen, but I think a re-design could make these work better. I feel like there was somebody in one of the bib threads that just had a tailor sew some off its onto their straps to lengthen them.

@Giles I hate them too. I have forever, but one moment solidified it for me.
In 2018 we honeymooned in Paris. I had purchased 2 small umbrellas in case we got caught in the rain. I had one in my jacket pocket as it started to drizzle on these quaint as fuck brick streets in the La Marais district. This was my romantic moment... Out comes the umbrella, I open it up and the (brand new umbrella's) frame was busted and half collapsed. I tossed it in the nearest bin cursing and we got soaked instead.

@Giles said in Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?:
I'd never use one, I'd rather get wet, I personally think they are the world's most evil invention. Extremely dangerous when you are my height and the people around you have no spacial awareness….
@jordanscollected @long_john86 This is the completely understandable reason for @Giles dislike of umbrellas.

@goosehd @Giles Haha I thought this may have been a well trodden path!
As one of my colleagues has remarked who also hates umbrellas: “put your hood up!”
I do like a cheeky umbrella in the bag though, especially if I don’t want to wear an ‘outer’ layer but need a bit of insurance against the ‘sunny Manchester’ weather. It’s grim up North, as they say… but it’s our grim

@long_john86 you are definitely right about “sunny Manchester”…. I live sort of halfway between Sheffield and Doncaster so the weather is never particularly great but it has absolutely poured it down every time I’ve drove to Manchester to visit Rivet & Hide
you guys really do have your own weather system! -
@DeeDee85 haha yep bang on. Every outing involves being covered for multiple weather scenarios!
-
@long_john86 hence the umbrella request is very understandle

@Giles I think most of the UK is pretty grim at the minute isn’t it, I work on roofs so maybe see a little too much of the wet stuff through the winter.. still hoping to make it to the party so fingers crossed we can continue this very English conversation about who gets the worst weather in person
