Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
-
This is more of a potential improvement than it is a specific product, and not IH specific, but would love to see a 2nd inner wrist button on denim jackets. A lot of IH products have slightly longer arms and a tighter wrist is a good way to combat blousy sleeves if you don't want to roll it. Even when an arm is normal length I prefer a tighter wrist. Visvim does this and it's nice. I'm probably in the minority but have always been of the opinion that denim jacket arms should fit like a looser version of a shirt rather than the basically straight fit many have, due to the way denim drapes.
We can easily add as a pimped option….
Can I send something back to be pimped? I'm in the US so would want to make sure something fits before pimping

@Filthy:
How about a black ultra heavy merino wool and cashmere blend commando sweater with black denim shoulder and sleeve patches?
Like this please.
But bring the denim further up the sleeves to reinforce the elbows more.
I've been asking for a commando sweater for some time. It really fits the IH aesthetic IMO.

Let's hope they're listening.

I'd like short inseam denim shorts, like the 5" inseam Patagonia stand up shorts:

How about a modified type III made with the 21oz indigo serge fabric?

A 10-12oz denim for jeans.
In my perfect world it would become a core item available in most of the cuts like the 14oz and 21oz denim fabric. Of course I love the heavier stuff like everyone else and I'm sure some are balking at the idea of an IH jean that light but not many thought IH would do a 14oz several years ago and H knocked it out of the park with both iterations of that fabric. It also appears that the 14oz sells very well but of course @Giles can answer that better than anyone.
A lot of us live in warm/hot/hell-on-Earth climates. Sure you can say the 14oz or even 21oz can be tolerable in the heat but IMO it's not exactly comfortable and a good 10-12oz fabric feels sooooo much better in the heat. I think it would be very interesting to see H's take on a light fabric in that 10-12oz range.

Maybe already requested but a souvenir jacket. Been digging on them recently. But maybe doesn't fit the brand.

Of course but (1) it's a waste to take a perfectly good pair of jeans and cut off the legs and (2) details (and maybe cut) can be made different from just cut off jeans…

I think those of us that live in hell-on-Earth climates need to accept that IH is a cold weather brand. We'll never have much use for the flannels, thermals, jackets, and super heavy denim, but that's just the way it is.

Love means sacrifice. Living in San Diego means I can get away with IH as it doesn't get too hot here or cold. I certainly don't need IH here, but I want IH here. I just think of those Pronto guys in Bangkok, so I don't complain. Haha.

I don't agree that IH is just a cold weather brand considering they sell/have sold T-shirts, lightweight flannels, lightweight chambrays, short sleeve work shirts, lightweight chinos, the current 5.5oz madras shirt, etc..
One's definition of "cold weather" may be different than the next person of course, but point being that IH does make items that I can wear comfortably in the summer.
