IHSW-45 is leading the way with......
What's the single most all-time underappreciated and misunderstood Iron Heart piece ever?

That would be going in the direction of this thread.

...or even this.

I have an IHSW-45-BLK that I bought for my girlfriend a while ago. What we liked about it was that it is indeed very windproof for a sweater. What we didn't like was that it's an absolute dust magnet (comparative to the "standard" sweater material, it's harder to wipe off dust due to the structure of the outer shell) and the shell is "crunchy" due to the film between the outer and inner skins which makes it not cozy enough to wear indoors like the standard sweaters. I should probably also X-post this to the respective forum thread sometime.

I loved my SW-45 and regret that I passed it on, but anyone with pets can attest that thing is not just a dust but fur magnet! 4 sheets on the lint roller every time I wanted to leave the house. It is an amazing piece. I still want the hoody made the same way that was a JP only release. Someday I’ll find one.

Pretty tough to name just one... probably my IHSH-193 that I luckily eded up scoring after a lot of crossing my fingers. Also adore the orig 18oz raw denim.

Favorite shirt: Has to be the IHSH-335-BLK. I saw a preview of it when Giles, Alex, and company were at Good Art early in 2022. That fabric was love at first sight and feel.
The weather has cooled and I'm glad to be wearing it every chance I get
. It's such a great, and substantial, feeling flannel.Favorite denim: At the moment, has to be my Y2 invititional pair, the PIH10ANS. I basically took over that thread with monthly updates.
Love how they've faded and I still wear them fairly often. Heck, I just got them back from repair. I believe @JoshC handled my repairs, so thank you!!! Nicely done, especially the front pocket
-
Not a problem @iamjustdanny glad I could get them sorted for you bud!

Hard to choose, but I think my recent IH-526Lod takes the prime spot. I have a soft spot for the 19oz lefty fabric (fav pair of indigo jeans ever) and the overdye takes it to another level. Hefty but totally soft and wearable. I love that the overdye isn’t completely consistent over the fabric; you can see where it’s pooled into the seams and in other areas making it deep inky black/blue. I also love how they age and have been admiring @AdamJ ‘s superb jacket for a long time.

I have a IH-526Lod aswell and i agree that 19oz lefty fabric is amazing when over dyed. I hope there will be 19oz lefty pants that are over dyed someday.

21oz 633. Ironic considering first IH piece I bought and now I’m 30+ pieces deep. Hard to imagine a better pair of jeans.

I don't know the number (I wish Iron Heart would add them to the inside of each garment or something) but its my black UHF Herringbone twill workshirt with cateye buttons. I love everything about it and it's Iron Heart at its core: Over engineerd, black, unique fabric, great feel and ultra fonctional - BEST. SHIRT. EVER.
My IHSW-49-BLK is a close second
Pants: IH-888S-UHR (despite them not being black
) -

@scarfmace Ah the IHSH-240-BLK! totally forgot about that one
-
-
@scarfmace i remember sleeping on that cozy cash in favour of a different UHF. I regret it to this day it looks so good.
-
I’m still an IH noob but I’ve been thinking and it’s gotta be my ihsh-362 or my 888 21ib. I can’t not wear both every day. UHFs are amazing as well. If you don’t have one, you must.
that's the one!
