I consider myself lucky if I get a 91.

We got chickens…

…and one immediately got stuck under the shed.

[Mizmazzle]

@WhiskeySandwich haha. Those fucking birds are so hilarious all the time.

@WhiskeySandwich did someone say KFC

@Mizmazzle dude so true. The best.

The 818 arrived and fits well! There isn't a thread for this model. Should I make one for them? I guess it would only be me posting in it though. I keep knocking around the idea of which pair to wear alongside my 888XHSib this season. I think these might be it.

I really love the 20oz double duck with these. They are still super dark, darker than the photos with minimal fading all throughout. I think these will fade with high contrast. They fucking smelled bad of cigarettes though so they are in the wash now. Plan to wear them later this week.

@Oaktavia Please do not create a thread for them…

We will figure out a place for them.

[goosehd]

@Oaktavia I have put the question forward to the other Mods/Admin for discussion on what to do and where to put this? Will let you know what is decided.

[Oaktavia]

@goosehd okay cool, thanks for inquiring for me. I will standby. Maybe it could be a thread for lesser known or older models/rarities.

[Luijim78]

@Oaktavia they are really wonderful Steve, congratulations my friend, you have really found a little treasure

[T4920]

@Oaktavia beautiful, it's so obviously duck now you've posted better qaulity pictures!

[JunkPants]

Very cool man! Some of those older duck pieces (love the jackets for instance) are some of my favourites from before my time here.

Would be easier to keep up with your progress if there was a specific thread for these.

[Alex]

@Oaktavia happy for you that you have picked these up, mate!

@Alex awesome, that's a great idea man. Now it's time to wear these dang thangs.

[Mizmazzle]

I went fishing today and it’s officially Autumn in the high country!!

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle so envious of this…beautiful!

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle so nice to hear! It was 87 degrees here yesterday bleh!

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT @Oaktavia
It is still hot as balls down in the city here as well. But what’s happening in the mountains is the first signs of what’s to come in town. BRING IT ON!!

First time spotting IH in the wild while walking back to my car over the weekend. Apologies for randomly snapping you like some sort of pap, fellow traveller, but I spotted your UHF a mile off and could not catch up before you got in your car. Pretty sure I saw the flash of a red W on your jeans too.

Edit: I knew it, that's definitely a 337.

When I signed up here waaaaaaaay back in 2011 and attended my first (I think it was IH’s second) party, a few things were different for me.

My son was 6, he’s now 18.
My waist line was two tag sizes smaller.
I had no idea how to size or shrink my jeans.
My work was a whole lot easier, and much less time consuming.

It’s been great reading the forum this last couple of days, awesome to see the brand and community thriving and still growing and amazing to see and read so many people getting the same welcome, laughs and love after all these years.

I didn’t sign up when the forum changed, life got in the way, I couldn’t wear denim all the time like I used to, people I knew didn’t post as much and I drifted away from the whole denim scene.

Reading the forum, looking at product pages, looking back on old posts has made me feel like a man out of step with time. That’s not a bad thing at all, just great to see how much Iron Heart and the community has grown since those early days.
