A Trip Down Memory Lane….

[Giles]

Want a laugh?…....

Shoque was looking through some old stuff and found the first iteration of the new Iron Heart web site which we launched a year or 2 ago.....

http://www.ironheart.co.uk/first_draft/

[Seul]

No screens of the very first IH UK site?.. I remember browsing that… It was a bit, how shall I put this, basic…

[Giles]

Yeah, I have them.  I worked on the basic-is-good principle…..

[Seul]

Thing is: I thought it was some kind of crazy Russian brand for some reason… Was eyeing the rider jackets back then... This was at least a year before the forum started though... Apparently I was an eejit back then as well...

[shoque]

Here we go Seul: http://nostalgia.ironheart.co.uk/

It's the latest version of the old page before we switched to the new shop system/design.

[Giles]

God I am embarrassed, but you know what I'm even more embarrassed that I loved that site…....

[Seul]

I still kinda love it - brings back memories… 

[shoque]

Hahahaha, well put.

But to be honest, it wasn't that bad, I mean, the colors did match, and it had a structure which was quite easy to navigate. The new design is only a fraction of why the new system is better (customer database, cc-processing, …)

nice memories…
remember some SF members asking... "this site is legit...?"
to G, about the SF member who has started the thread #iron heart# on SF named "Guy H".
is it possible to know more about him?
is it an active member here?
really simple curiousity. really.
this GUY influenced a lot my...the style of my garderobe!!:)

[Giles]

He's GuyH but does not post that much….

Loved that old webpage, so very basic indeed, remember there was one particular page with a meticulous how-to-soak SR denim guide (with pics), is that still accessible somewhere?

[Giles]

Yup, here….

[FurattoHeddo]

Thanks … What strikes me is that the choices to make were a little easier back then lol, there's probably ten times as much too choose from now ...

[Giles]

You should have seen it on day 1.

It was one product page with:

IH-634S
IH-634
IH-461
IH-1461
IH-1634
IH-526J
IH-527J

That was it…...

Nice trip down memory lane there.

[Omega Man]

Ha, ha that's when my dependency (aka addiction  ::)) on IH started…

[hectic]

Jeez, takes me back. haha.

[hajduk]

[Giles]

Haraki does have a few.  I am doing a pair for a customer atm…..

[hajduk]
