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

[scroogen]

It's really cool that you were personally helped out by a member of the Schott family, but my point was that family owned doesn't always mean much of anything, and sometimes can even be used as a marketing tool…  My problem with Schott is this.  They have so much heritage and history like you say, but I feel like instead of taking it to the limit and making the absolute best product they can make they ride on their name and on marlon brando's nuts.  They can advertise how they used to make awesome shit until my ears bleed, but if I'm looking for a NEW jacket... I won't be looking at Schott.  I'll concede that a lot of the old stuff is quality, but from what I've seen in stores I was far from impressed and I've also seen some shit from them that is just really tacky (I know, subjective)

On the above, I am mostly (90%) in agreement with you. Which is good enough for me

Haven't read through all of this thread so I don't know if it has been brought up or not.

21oz Type III jacket with the "bi-swing" shoulder form from the Rider jacket.

Probably too much to ask but I LOVE the shoulder action in that construction.

re Schott

They still make some decent riding jackets. I suppose most stores won't stock them. The horsehide and heavier steerhide jackets are OK for riding…

@Megatron1505:

I guess there's familys and familys.

And then there's families.

@Giles:

Iron Heart is a tiny company that effectively hand crafts it's products, we like working with similar companies…..

G love your statement

21oz work pants would go nicely with all the work shirts we seem to have about - http://denimhunters.com/blog/news/mffrontierchinos

Bold bold thick prison stripped shirt!

An Eisenhower style jacket so I don't have to keep buying cheap dickies ones that look like shit after one season!

[FurattoHeddo]

634 cut in SBG denim with non-contrast stitching (like IH-555-03) …

This. 21oz black denim like the 9526 Vest or maybe some heavy duck?

Guitar-Straps would be very cool, too!

yeah i could get into the duck
but i think the west point material or something "lite" would work better

Don´t know what you mean with the westpoint thing?!
Would like to see:

• Heavy Weight Work Shirt (IHSH20 + IHSH48 or something)
• An "updated" 634. 21oz selvage denim with lined backpockets, tattoostyled leatherpatch (no artsy fartsy or Ed Hardy style, just a simple flash) and some other nice details
• Lined nylon jacket for the colder and wet summer-nights

[RocknRoll]

More jeans with Bronze coloured hardware (i.e. buttons, rivets), as used on the 634SR, DC4001, and a few others.
