      I spent about 3 hours at the shirt making factory today.  I left (and I honestly really mean this), not knowing how we sell the UHF's for the price we do.  There are 12 people cutting and sewing and they get 60 shirts completed a day.  Those are just the "productive" people, on top of that they have 2 managers, and the most amazing old sewing master (female), whose role it is to train the new staff.  Every new recruit is trained by the sewing master for 6 months before they are allowed to make an actual shirt that can be sold to Haraki…..I think the sewing master my favourite person I met this trip: ancient, wizened, humble and brilliant......

            I didn't think it was possible to love my UHFs even more, but that story did it.

              where I live, no-one but my wife knows what Iron Heart is, so brand recognition really isn't a factor for me [emoji1]

              Same for Giles!  (Apart from @Winchy, @Sam, @PattyCakez and @Simon - so I am exaggerating a little)  😉

                The pink paper is to separate flannel from different rolls of material.  Each of our shirts is sewn from the same roll of fabric, just in case there is a colour variation in the dying between each roll.  The attention to detail is extraordinary…..

                  Haven't found much that isn't extraordinary about IH's operation and products.
                  Those colors are fecking gorgeous! Wish it was fall right now.
                  Any shots of the Red?

                  Keep making clothing that makes us drool fellas!

                    Reds were not being made whilst we were at the workshops…....

                    But I am sure there are pics of the sample somewhere in this thread...

                              Can't wait till the purple ombre comes out, crazy check and solid burgundy. That is an instant cop for me… probably sell my 126 before then.

                                  Haraki calls that knitted denim - It's not actually a denim.  I call it knitted salt and pepper.  There has 2% stretch yarn in this fabric, so it is super comfy
