@AdamJ:

@Boras great view! Welcome

Second this opinion. What cloud formation is that @Boras ?

[Boras]

@AdamJ Thank you!

@motojobobo I have no idea, but it was so unusual I ran out and took a picture!

Long time lurker but haven't posted quite so much!

I'm nothing as exciting as most of you guys, writing to you from Big Smoke (AKA London). Being in UK and getting next day on IH products is proving dangerous. I've already splurged on a pair of 634-XHS, a pair of 888-UHR and now an N1 whipcord jacket. Needless to say, I've become an addict and I'm already looking forward to the 888-XHS-IB and I'd like to snag a belt sooner rather than later…

Cheers!

Welcome! That's a great start to the collection @Kerestel, two classic denims straight off the bat. The belts are excellent by the way (sorry  :D)

[Kerestel]

Thank you @neph93 ! I've been looking at the Nickel plated garrison in natural. Do you have a specific insight into the belts? This may prove quite expensive…

I've been wearing an IHB-01 just about every day for the last 10 years.  Only about 10 more years left in it….

[neph93]

I have the IHB-01 and IHB-05 with five and four years on them respectively. Brass Chicago screw set up on both. I’ll probably need to buy another belt before I die, but only one.

Hi I‘m Timo and I live in Germany. I enjoy wearing Iron Heart and this forum for quite a while. It‘s a big inspiration. My first IH purchases were the IH-634-S and the IH-SH-62. Some days ago I ordered the IH-555-XHSib and it was my first XHS and 555 cut and the indigo black denim is so awesome.

Welcome Timo. That’s some great kit to start your collection with.

[Timo]

Thanks. But after the first purchases the addiction started and now I have quite a collection…

[neph93]

@Timo… that sounds very familiar buddy

Hello from the SF Bay Area!

Got bit by the raw denim bug 14 years ago - and have worn countless pairs to hell and back, but fell in love with my first pair of IH (301, 21oz) back in 2013 when I lived a couple blocks away from Self Edge [emoji28].

Looking to get back into the swing of things, this time with some straight leg cuts…

Hello!

Welp, this is the first forum I've ever joined. It was so very helpful to see/hear from IH customers during my purchase process, and I'm happy to say I'm 3 days in to a wonderfully painful pair of 25oz jeans I also got an IH 18oz CPO shirt, which ROCKS! I really wanted the type II jacket as well. I ordered it based mostly on it having the right sleeve length for me, but it ended up also being quite large in the body. I took the plunge(literally), and did a hot soak with some agitation in order to shrink the body down as much as possible. Quite risky, since now I'm unable to return, but I suppose I can probably sell it. Anyway. I've got a lot to learn about the jacket sizing and how denim reacts. All in all, a great experience! HUGE thanks to all the fantastic IH staff that answered a million questions for me along the way

[Paul9221]

Welcome, MatW!

I hope everything works out with the sizing.  Report back, and post a pic!

[neph93]

@matwllms yes indeed, welcome. Love it when folks go hard with 25oz jeans and 18oz shirts for their first purchases. Good man.

You're in the right place to learn more and get the details right. Dive in.
