    here at Self Edge we've been going through a LOT of the 21oz Selvedge Straight Iron Hearts, people seem to love them.
    i've been wearing mine for four weeks straight, just did the soak two days ago, and for the first time in my ten years of playing with denim i saw a first.
    during the cold soak ZERO of the indigo leaked, the water actually turned a funny yellowish color and the denim lost almost no color. this is from the silicon locking process that the denim goes through post production. very interesting indeed.

    Been reading through the first pages of the IH thread on SuFu… Is this "silicon locking process" still being used?

        Injun you look much much taller than that in pictures 🙂

        @injunjack:

        Should I now cry and weep…I've been 171½cm in my youth, now just a hint over 170...

        If jeans get stuck under yer shoe, they're too long.  Obviously, how come you didn't think of that?

            Anybody have suggestions for shopping Iron Heart in Tokyo?    I am heading there for work in Oct.  Also any recs for eating Kobe beef and o-toro!!!???  I'll also be looking for Samurai, Buzz Rickson and Studio d'Artisan stuff too.  And some Gundam/Naruto stuff for my kids (and me too!  ;D).

              hinoya plus mart seems to be the spot.

              heres a question/suggestion for all forum members…...

              Who would be into the idea of a forum trade list?  As in a list of stuff that we own, but don't necessarily wear very often or maybe ended up not really liking that we would be open to trading for something else we might like more.  i'm 100% into this idea if anyone else is.

              PUT DOWN THAT STARBUCKS, PICK UP THAT GNARBUCKS!!

                Here's some info:
                @Jii:

                @ronaldlsh:

                Anyone know if there is any iron heart shops in Tokyo shibuya?

                There is a place in Shibuya called OT+E that has some (very little) IH gear, the topmost one on this page: http://www.rakuten.ne.jp/gold/ot-emens/shop/index.htm

                Hinoya Plus Mart in Ueno (less than half an hour with the Yamanote line from Shibuya) had quite a bit of IH as well, probably the widest selection in the central Tokyo area. Only up to XL in tops though.

                I strongly suggest that you take the time to visit The Works in Hachioji if you have the time for it.

                Hinoya Plus Mart had loads of Buzz Rickson. Studio D'artisan has a shop of it's own in Shibuya (Web page + access map) - it's just a block or two away from Visvim which is worth checking out as well even if you're not into the brand.

                Oh and both SDA and OT+E are below street level (kinda like going into a basement with) so they might be a bit hard to find. Just like just about everything else in Tokyo and Shibuya area especially  😉 Everything (of interest) is either below or above street level with very minimal storefront decoration or signs. I must have walked past Visvim half a dozen times before I found it  😉 I do have to say that it's very much part of the charm, I love to explore places by foot and just stumble upon some nice small shops and restaurants. It does take some time though…

                God I want to go back to Japan!

                AIAN HA-TO!

                      Where is Beats?  Have not seen her posts/pics for a while.  Maybe she is brewing something big.

                          exactly.  i have a few pieces that i don't wear very often that i'd be into trading for something cool or interesting.

                                      so who has an extra Self Edge denim for Allah sticker they would part with?

                                      it would make my day.

                                      That is all.
