…@jordanscollected, similar things happen quite often to me also. Was in Hudson,Wisconsin recently and a cat and his gal were sitting behind me while I was waiting for a beer and he taps me and says he really liked my jeans ( XHS-888's ). I took the time to explain to him about this fantastic company called Iron Heart and told him about Harakisan and that he loves America probably more than half the citizens currently living here!
...hit 'em with the price and then I apologized to his squeeze because if I got him to bite he'll be too broke to take her out ever again!

@vaquero357 I have tried with a few of my friends to explain the thought process, but no one has bit and i have stopped trying. My fishing buddy makes twice my salary and still thrifts clothes. He wears nice button ups to work, but he couldn't care less about jeans or high end workwear.
If someone comes up to me inquiring, I'll rant and rave about it in the most approachable way possible. 99% people have never spent this much clothing, so to convince someone to join the 1% is going to have many more swings and misses than it is hits.
In this case, a strikeout means nothing to me.

I turned my friend in Tucson onto Iron Heart over the past few and now he's three pieces deep. It's an addiction. Once you put on an IH shirt it's game over.

I've tried to turn multiple people on to this brand, even giving away items that didn't work for me. My final thought is you can lead a horse to water….........

I’ve done it!!!! My league mate bought a pair of iron heart jeans!!!!! A photo together next week is in order.
Thanks to whomever helped him in customer service. He already complimented your help with measurements and overall pleasantness.

@jordanscollected I'm curious to know what ones. Hopefully it's 25 XHS somethings

Giles, his name is Dustin.
He was mulling over what to buy and the co$t, and then he won a pool tournament over the weekend and had a "treat yourself" moment on the way home.
He purchased the IH-461S as he wanted a sneaker/boot cut.
Mike I bet the leap to XHS would have been a bit much. He wears fashion jeans from the Buckle right now, so 21 oz. is a huge leap in weight.
I hope he likes them.

I turned a buddy of mine to the IH direction last September. We were trying to figure out the best pair of raw denim jeans for his Indigo Invitational pair. He originally wanted to get some random Naked and Famous pair…but after a few beers and tequilas, he went for the 777 21oz. Loves them to this day!
Anyway, reason I am sharing is because it feels good to validate an expensive lifestyle when someone in your town joins in.
The photo is of his pair he has been wearing since Oct 1.

Thanks for sharing @Oaktavia. The thing that surprised me a little is that he simply didn't know high end heavyweight denim was an option or even existed. He talked about getting his jeans at the Buckle, and simply asking them for their thickest jean. He nodded when I discussed denim weight, but I'm not sure he completely understood. Anyhow I hope he joins us on the forum soon and falls in love like yours did.
Dustin if you reading this later, no offense, I'm just glad you're here.

Yes, this is just brilliant @steelworker! Where is this picture taken? And do you mind if I use it in my teaching?

Just did some research–apparently the pic is a hoax: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2013/08/facebook-fauxlore-kerouac-burroughs-and-a-fight-over-the-oxford-comma-that-never-was/278452/
Still a bloody good story, and really great for giving some color to my classes on grammar and style.

Added an IRON TO THE BONE patch to my beater Baltimore Ravens hat. Used the trusty dental floss punk rock method of my youth. It's crooked, sloppy and just how I like it. I have another patch in a different color that my friend will be machine sewing onto my Lefty trucker in a much neater fashion.
