@corralitos Yeah its something I can do for you, you would just need to pay for a HD snap upgrade and I can get that all sorted for you, I actually did it for my first pair of IH jeans 666S-18, if you are ever interested just give me a email or a DM, more than happy to help.

More madras.
Despite being an unpopular thread...

That shirt has been my most wearable shirt this summer. More colors and short sleeves would be amazing. -

@harleylawhorn check out the 1955’s and the 684’s.

Well... you got me hooked on the IHV-02-IND, now you got to give me longer shirts that I can tuck in to style it with
. (Necessity is the mother of invention or something like that)I understand your audience doesn't want to look like they're participating in a rodeo but I've been doing a bit of vintage shopping and am appreciating the intentional longer body (long tails, if you will) of these older work and western shirts that make them easier to tuck in. Gives me an opportunity to show off my belt, wear my vest more neatly, and "feel" a bit more retro in my styling.

I’d love a western boot cut. Like IH’s take on Wrangler’s 13MWZ, even with the leather patch moved to the same spot on the high pocket. Would cop instantly, starch, and press a seam into those soooo quickly

Dude, YES!! I mentioned that in one of the 634 threads. That would be an absolute dream pair in any denim over 14 oz, preferably heavier; 18, 21, or 25.
Caution on the leather patch relocation. I know that Mister Freedom caught some hell from Wrangler’s parent company for doing something similar with one of their cuts that are very similar to the 13MWZ. In fact, one of Iron Heart’s stockists and collaborator had to photoshop out the patch on a particular pair of pants that they sold on their e-commerce site to avoid the same legal wrath. However, doing so after the fact is absolutely something that could be done. I’d most certainly do something like that.
On the subject of ideas… with autumn nearly upon us, I turn towards pieces that I can layer, of which I’m suspiciously light. In particular, vests in a fabric other than denim.
Fabrics that immediately come to mind:
- sashiko. I know Haraki-San isn’t big on the style or the quality, but I just picked up a pair of S’dA Kaise-dyed pants in a nearly neon indigo. That same fabric in a work, western, or casual vest would be super sharp
- UHF vest, something that can be layered over western denim chambray shirts
- Corduroy. This may be an outlier, but a lined cord vest could be a sweet cool weather piece, be it UHF material or wool
- wool. This doesn’t seem to be a fabric typical of Iron Heart, but maybe a collab with Dehen 1920: their amazing Pendleton wool knit and Iron Heart’s timeless design
- Canvas duck lined with wool or UHF
Safety third

Also would love a lined vest... with a collar

Have you looked into The Boss cut? If that doesnt work for you, you’ll be hard pressed get another cut in the lineup (give the current manufacturing constraints) let alone convincing Haraki-san to clone an existing and less iconic/popular cut than the Levis 501 (the 1955 example).

@Boit this is not what I want to hear
Boss cut looks cool. Would prefer it in a lighter fabric and higher pockets. Also looks equally unavailable
