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

Please excuse my ignorance, but how about a piccie of the type of buckle you were thinking of.
I'm intrigued by this concept.

Erm, yes, I think someone posted up an ebay link to a Japanese (i think) buckle dealer after a post I responded to on buckles. Have a look you will see it on the forum. However it would be a typical retangle buckle (turned upright like a H shape) finished in nickle or brass to match the finish or "spots" on your jacket and on your boots.
NOTE: There are a lot of early biker buckles with glass on them. I don't like this. I like early modernist simplicity, with only what is needed, it is far more chic and far more powerful, also if a buckle has fancy things on it they often get ripped off or caught on things.

injunjack I am of course not proposing a double stitched thickness of the belt you speak of, no, but more the thickness of the belt itself in total. Im talking about a double stitched belt thickness of a total of 3/4mm max. But moreso I'm refering to style from the hand stitching running around the inside top and bottom edges of the belt which gives a beatiful hand crafted vintage effect.

I might be barking up the wrong tree but is this the style of stitching you are on about ?

Are these the sort of thing you had in mind.

Is this the kind of thing? It isn't 2 belts stitched together but it is double the thickness of 'normal' heavy belts like IH and Tanner.
It's 7-9mm thick (approx) x 40mm wide and made from ox-hide
They also do pretty much any other type of leather . . . but obviously not in that thickness
Anyways this has gone off the thread topic so let's get back on track

Hmm, like an Aero biker jacket belt doubled up and slightly thicker say 2". Aero belts are also stitched too, here is an example of something close to what I propose but double the thickness, hope you like the idea, hope this helps give clearer image, buckle is spot on too: http://www.screencast.com/users/simoncathcart/folders/Jing/media/68415a0f-9073-4ed3-84e4-de38280edbd4

While on the subject of belts, why not make a buckle that doubles as a bottle opener, I'm pretty sure that will find an audience on here

Look I can't seem to find new product suggestions, I've looked, but here, I think a Prisoner shirt would ROCK, this company (japanese have made a jacket) but I suggest a denim shirt in prisoner stripes!
Best wishes

OK guys,
its been awhile since i brought this up but here we go…..
what about another run on the IH-1634 ? black, but not superblack in fact perhaps even more gray than black. i love these. i have both the jeans and the riders jacket, but i dont like wearing them because i cant replace them! i need redundancy (and a backup). that is iron heart. REDUNDANCY AND A BACKUP.
i would really go for a redo on the IH-1634 (maybe a 1634s ?) AND an IH-1526 regular black type III jacket. did i get that nomenclature right?
O RLY?
O SRSLY.

Ah okay now I find this page! Right how about a prisoners shirt white and black denim wide horizontal stripe? In the style of a 1950 Levis Denim Family western shirt. Prisoner, outcast, biker, culture yes? The only issue i foresee, which you may enjoy, is keeping the white denim in the black and white stripes white.
