  • RE: IHSH-99 - Overdyed 17oz Selvedge Denim Shirt/Jacket

    New (to me) IHSH-99 in the sun, in a true vintage potatoe-quality (courtesy of BlackBerry Q10), worn here with 555-03 and Nick’s Manito. The characteristics of this fabric are 5/5 and I couldn’t be happier overall, as a denim western kind-of-a-guy this is by far my favorite.

    Fit-pic; I think it's pretty spot on for my current frame and as mentioned, the sleeve-length works particularly well.

    @Max Power Nice evo pics, creases setting in nicely. Can't wait for my Eric to arrive

    Where did you find an Eric? That's the only style of theirs I find interesting.

    Fit-pics when you get it, please. 😎

  • RE: Iron Heart Int'l x Wesco® - 7" Black Roughout Jobmaster® Boot

    Is it possible to request these be made with the additional half-slips for increased arch-support and as an auxilliary question, do such half-slips actually enhance the arch in a meaningful way?

  • RE: Samples - New Products We Are Working On

    This style of a shirt would absolutely benefit from side pockets - it's a surprisingly empty niche at the moment.

    IHSH-164 was $1650 so if anyone asks, we can claim we are actually saving money by purchasing this. 😘

  • RE: IHSH-99 - Overdyed 17oz Selvedge Denim Shirt/Jacket

    Aetas, organisys & I all have triple stitched front and back yokes while on Brock's and peregrine's, it looks like 2 rows of stitching similar to the product photos in the store. I have triple stitching also on my 76.

    I'm assuming this change was made at some point during the lifespan of the product but which one was the original spec? 177 and 178 have 2 rows of stitching on yokes which makes me guess this is a more recent way of doing it.

  • RE: 2019 Edition - Iron Heart WAYWT

    @Chap:

    Good Morning forum and a great weekend everyone

    I like this fit  8), makes me antsy for the Smokejumper-season (which for me is when there's snow on the ground… shouldn't be much longer now...).

  • RE: IHWE-Build-5 - Iron Heart/Wesco 9" Brown Engineer Boot

    I'm the first to admit I can be annoying at (most) times but I'm back to this thread to wonder about sizing. ::) The last pair in stock is the size I would go for in footwear manufactured by other prominent bootmakers in the Pacific North-West and some, like @Chris , wear the same size across different brands… While others have to go up in Wesco. Common sense would dictate that purchasing non-returnable items is not the way to learn your way around an unknown quantity but then again I have been spending nonsensible amounts of money purchasing leather jackets from Japan this autumn, with no prior experience with leather jackets of any kind, so being smart about these things is not a part of my core skillset. ::) But I digress. The 2 reasons I keep coming back to this build are that

    • no more IH collab engineers shall be forthcoming, while I think I could use a pair of engineers (never had a pair before)

    • this build is by far the best-looking

    As these come with removable insoles, would it tell me anything of worth if I asked the good folks of Gosport to measure the insoles of the remaining pair, and go from there? As I haven't worn pull-on boots before I'm not savvy to all the aspects to factor in.

  • RE: IH-555-03 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Superblack (Fades To Grey)

    @wunnaz:

    Thanks @Crit_Obs, i just grabbed it.. 😃
    Hope it will fit well as i expected.

    Cool beans. 😎 You could drop them a message (if you didn’t already), asking them to confirm the measurements before shipping. They are very accommodating and cordial when it comes to such requests.
