What hangers do you guys use? Now that its getting colder im getting to wear my flannels and noticing some have small shoulder bumps probably from hanging all summer, have them on standard wood hangers, seems the shirts with slightly wider shoulders get the bumps but not the narrower shirts

[tody]

@Ikeaparty the answer is in your user handle. i use these for all my IH shirts:

@tody huh! These appear to be the same ones I have, although I see they have a coat version that has a wider tip maybe will grab some of those and of course some meat balls

[ZackB]

@Ikeaparty I have the same for mine but my shirts are mostly smalls or mediums. I’ve seen people do the pool noodle trick for leather jackets to put less stress on the shoulders.

Can anyone explain to me the significance of this red m/w/squiggle? I have always thought it to emulate a Levi’s tag of sorts but would love any info you guys have!

It's a W for Works inc or an M for Motorcycle. Whatever makes you feel good....

I thought it was the number 3

I think it is a beautiful abbreviation and summary of the ExcEllEncE of IH products.

@Ikeaparty I’m slowly moving over to coloured Nakata hangers.

I run a W40 and the back pockets are smaller compared to other brands in same sizing (like Levis, Edwin and Nudie). IMO it makes the jeans look weaker when there is more "empty" material on the butt.

A ran into a guy who had W32, albeit in a different model (I have 888s and he had 634s) and I compared the sizing. Identical. Is Iron Heart using the same size back pocket for all their sizes?

[Giles]

Nope, and the "empty material" is so that you don't sit on your pockets. We are are a motor cycle inspired brand, and that is a key part of our design DNA....

@Kaskar Moved your question here and @Giles has responded.

@Kaskar Hi, further to Giles' reply I have attached an example of a Tag 34 as opposed to a Tag 40 (same jean, same cut).. approximately 0.5" difference in width of the back pockets, so the pockets will incrementally get larger, the bigger the tag size. I hope this helps!

[Giles]

Thank you @Bailey

what is the origin/meaning of the IH Bell?

[goosehd]

@jonpwn Ironheart is a motorcycle interest based brand and Haraki is a motorcyclist. In that world, the guardian bell is used to scare away demons and gremlins or just about anything that can harm someone whilst riding a motorcycle.

Also, the Bell System in North America, led by The Bell Telephone Company, had as it's symbol/trademark, a bell. The Bell companies were synonymous with North American telecoms, just like Levi's were synonymous with North American work wear.

The Bell logo was a US icon, so our use of it is a nod to that.

It is a very Japanese thing to have a word/phrase/image that is means multiple things, this is a perfect example.
