      @Steve sorry if I missed this somewhere before, but I'm curious if there is a story behind the brand name, Saturday Type Fever?
      (Is a play on the movie title a too “on the nose” guess? I know tribute has been played to movie and music icons on some of your pieces)

          absolutely fascinating. Sounds like I need to hang a bell on my bike (or get a bell print bandana wrapped on the handlebars). Ironically I always give bikers the 2 fingers down when I'm driving for good energy, even if it's inside my cage.

            @jonpwn Not a thing in the UK, as we drive on the other side. It's a nod here instead.

              @Mizmazzle - the backstory to the name saturdaytypefever is that before working at IH, I worked in advertising and design agencies - and have always specialised more on typography - loving how it can make anything look so different depending on the typeface chosen, or how it can instantly invoke a feeling with a specific typeface. My favourite movie has always been Saturday Night Fever, love 70s style and funk/soul music so it felt like a good name to tie in things together.

              I probably first used it 25/30 years ago as my gamertag when playing Quake/Unreal!

                    What up y’all? I was just at SESF and there was one shirt on the rack in the size of SP-Large. I’ve only found 1 reference to that size in the marketplace, but was curious as to what went into this sizing? Hope you all are top!

                          Wasn't really sure where to ask this, but is there any plans on restocking or bringing anything back that is waterproof?? Being in Vancouver with the rain starting again has me reaching for the usual goretex rain coats that I see just about every single person wearing and can't help but think about how much I'd prefer having an IH waterproof jacket where I wouldn't see every second person wearing the same thing, something ike a shell i could throw over a type III or UHF

                                      Summer is here (Australia), and as much as I love my IHSH denim and flannel shirts, it's time to leave them in the closet. What I would love to find is IH quality lighter weight shirts. Not necessarily in the workwear category, but the attention to detail and interesting fabrics that we see with IH is what I'm looking for. Any suggestions?

                                        @ManiacLachy Have you looked in the outlet at some of the short sleeves: https://ironheart.co.uk/collections/outlet

                                        I have a few of them and love them during our summer months.

                                          Do you also get these lines of remaining indigo from washing your jeans in the washing machine? All my IH jeans have them:

                                            It is a very Japanese thing to have a word/phrase/image that is means multiple things
