a couple of days ago my boy told me that 'all my clothes say iron heart on them'.....and that when he's older he wants to dress like me! - my work here is done

@SonnyTheElder I was wearing my grizzly in the supermarket last winter and some guy said to me 'my wife would be stroking your back if she saw your jacket'....I just smiled and said 'well, thats the idea' - but he didn't find it funny.....

I really like the idea of UHFs that are not just the traditional check designs

the Bends is very much the sound of the 90s, whereas the time period Kid A encapsulates just hasn't happened yet

RE: Ship Johnposted in Other Brands and Shops
@mecken88 the problem I always face with a lot of brands (iron heart/ship John/Y2 etc) is most of my body measurements are suited to a medium fit, but my chest measurement is always more of a large fit......so I either have to go fitted and can't really button things up, or I have to go looser all round and can actually button up. So I find mediums maybe look a little better on me, but large is always just more practical/wearable for my weird torso!

@mecken88 looks great……I haven’t taken mine off since I got it!

RE: Ship Johnposted in Other Brands and Shops
I came home drunk from a night out and managed to stay awake long enough to get one!
…….went for a large like my ramblin’ so hopefully it will work out -

@FlavourFade well, I did what you said, and it has shrunk up nicely......now it is absolutely perfect, so thank you so much!

RE: Ship Johnposted in Other Brands and Shops
@FlavourFade - I will certainly give this a try - thanks! ( it is such a nice jacket I will be wearing it even if it was 4 times too big

RE: Ship Johnposted in Other Brands and Shops
@mecken88 just got mine - I went Large, but now im thinking I probably should have gone for a medium too as its a bit on the big size......its wearable, but I think a medium would have been a bit better......lovely jacket though

RE: Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?posted in Future and Planned Products
I think the IHJ-122 is pretty much a perfect jacket, so a leather version would be amazing!

@tvaillant75 this has been my problem, the chest measurements tend to be a little too snug on a lot of y2 jackets unless I go a size up, which I find works best as if the shoulders are a little large they will shape to fit the more you wear it (especially if the jacket gets wet) I have found the jackets tend to shrink down more rather than stretch out

RE: Y'2 Leathers….posted in Other Brands and Shops
@tvaillant75 i've had a few y2 jackets and in my experience its better to get something slightly bigger - if it fits perfect on day one it will feel tighter down the road, whereas slightly oversized on day one will from around you to a comfier fit......its a lot like the heavier denim thing before and after an initial soak/wash
