Derp, I thought the main office was always in Hachioji.. Guess not  ???

[Giles]

The Works is in Hachioji, IH also have an office in Shibuya, they recently moved from the address above to a smaller one which they they share with TSS, I guess H decided as he was going to have to change the labels anyway, he'd change them to Hachioji….

Looking for a good place to buy heavy (thick) leather straps. My local Norwegian supplier has not been too good so far (varying quality) and places like tandy leather charges obscene S&H fees to Norway.

Suggestions for European leather suppliers with 9/10oz + (pref 12oz) leather straps that ship to norway with reasonable S&H?

Can anyone confirm that it is ParcelForce that handles USPS deliveries when they hit the UK? Does anyone happen to have a specific contact number for queries about deliveries that APPEAR TO BE FUCKING PERMANENTLY STUCK IN CUSTOMS, cough, cough…sorry about the shouting.

Thanks

I believe it is Parcel Force. Not sure. I would also like to know as I have multiple packages that have been PERMANENTLY STUCK in customs…

[Giles]

It is typically Parcel Force, yes…..The only specific number I have is "this is the person to bollock the shite out when something goes wrong with my shipment number"

[hectic]

[hectic]

lando, they were actually moderately helpful. PM me if you want me to call them about your packages.

Anyone know if iron heart products are alot cheaper in Japan, my sister in law is japenese and goes over all the time

[jacoavlu]

cheaper yes, a lot cheaper, well that's subjective. what's a lot? I would say not a lot my opinion. logically the price goes up a bit in the west what with costs of importing, shipping, currency exchanges, plus giles and co have to make money and consider their expenses as well

but also remember, some of the products that you can get through giles or self edge are not available in Japan, in particular a lot of the denim. No 18oz there, no beatle busters, no self edge collabs, no 666xhs. Hell I don't even think the 634sb is sold in Japan. It's mainly 634 and 461 over there.

[Guest]

Thanks jaco.So Mabey 634 for 300 instead of 360. That ballpark?

[jacoavlu]

nope not even that much difference, go check ironheart.jp

Not completely true. Definitely more limited as far as Self Edge or IHUK collabs, but I do spy some of the above. I am sure G can clarify for us…

Anyone have any tips or recommendations in regards to storing IH jeans when asleep.  Such as hanging with something or just laying them down?
