45RPM

Thanks @Oaktavia for entertaining us for a long time!

@Mizmazzle Love your creak bath pic and the ones thereafter.

Mine was absent for two months. Left it in a hidden Pat-BlackHole32 backpack and found it exactly at the moment, I needed it at most.

Fact is, I don’t wear it enough @Oaktavia , but love the fun an IHC can bring.
I’ll promise, a gentle sea wash is upcoming.

Live with Cap - Music challenge entry…

Music for Oaktavia on the Iron Heart Music Thread here.

@Mizmazzle This 822 is on my list for a long time. Your pictures are ace and didn’t make it easier to wait.

Looking good @denim-dawg

@Tobi Well done. Love the leveling of the fridge.

@DenimDenver126 The IHM-04 comes into my mind.
This one is from 2013.
The Alpaca fleece was a bit thinner at this time than nowadays, but definitely wasn’t lightweight.

@Giles Ramsgate is short distance to the Maunsell Forts and Project Red Sands. ?!

DAT VIDEO

@Mizmazzle Curious to hear your impressions about this 45RPM version of Marquee Moon.

This Swedish Serge Camp Cargo Shorts in 2016 and 2019.

@Aetas.jr2008 is rocking them in 2026 and they are getting better and better.

@tody Look here.

IHJ-65

Bought six of them in 2018, when some funky denimheads in here wrote the bold stuff:

Aging beer is like wearing your denim for a long time!
Have to admit they could be right.
Every glass I drank from this above over the years tasted differently.
It remains sour but gets hints of sweetness in the far end!
Can approve only the first half of the sentence for the beer. With denim it is vice versa.
Cellar as long as you like. But watch out for your last!
Looking at the label, leaves me speechless again.
Could be cellared till 2038.

@endo Thought the same when spotting yours ;-).

IHT, FHB, JN

Perhaps it is more… the Last Week.

Had to fly unexpectedly to Mallorca to bring my family back home.

It’s my oldest 7.5oz IHT.

@endo Unexpected ride around the world!
Much appreciated.

@Oaktavia Supercute!

The most adorable
‘Denim your Kids!’
theme.

Love this thread.

@Aetas.jr2008 And I enjoyed the last 15 minutes, scrolling with you through this thread and filling it with a few stories.

45RPM

I was young when I heard Sister of Mercy - Alice for the first time on 45RPM. It was in one of this early eighties city caves. Ruhrgebiet had a lot them at this time. Four speakers sounded into a room filled with 100 creatures of the night.
Every location more rotten than the other.
At my first hearing, the dance area was fully out of thick aluminum plates, 20m long and 4m wide.
Welded together in three long lines!
Material and hand welders were cheap to get in a culminating steelworker town at this time.
The DJ played the whole EP during the night.
Most fun was the phase, when it rained down sweat and tears from the low ceiling at the end.

When it came out we had no clue at first, that this was a cover.

Unsure about the dystopian atmosphere this vinyl creates so it is on hold.
Sommertime is primarily research time …
