@deanclean will PM a UK shipping enquiry. I have absolutely no need for these whatsoever. But that’s always the way.

I’ve been thinking about the things that would be missing for my entire lifestyle.

Some “swim” shorts that were built for lounging by the pool and bobbing to the swim up bar. Quick draining pockets, maybe a zipped pocket, but in a heavier fabric. Something cotton, something can can fade with less concern for swimming performance. There is nothing in the market I can find that hits the heritage style. Almost certainly doesn’t fit with what I know of IH so far.

Chambray pyjamas, popover style.

Main thing would be snaps or a closure on the bibs. I adore my new dungarees but constantly spill my belongings onto the ground.

My faded purple, London’s on holiday in France. Also pictured 25oz 555s. Hard work in 30c!

@Danimal506 I will report back after 2 weeks in them on holiday. I think they could definitely solve that problem for you.

@Danimal506 yeah, really pleased with them so far. They are warmer though for sure. They stay on nicely, good for driving in too.

@Oaktavia they’re Birkenstock Londons in Faded Purple.

My first post in this thread to share my new arrival dungarees!

Thanks to the gent that is @Kasi I am very happy to submit my entry for membership. These arrived today, at exactly the same time as the Birkenstocks. Which is a very happy coincidence, my wife bought me them without her knowing I had ordered these, and certainly not the connection.

I am going to put these both through their paces in an 18 hour drive through France in Thursday. My cream car seats might not thank me.

That is lovely! Yeah the prices are mad, but they’re special things very often

I’ve had a few Bronson, Non Stock and Red Tornado and I’ve been very pleased with them. Nice boxy vintage style fits for me at 6ft2 and 40inch chest.

I haven’t tried anything beyond their t shirts. Their prices definitely have risen in the last year or so.

@Matt err, no idea. I haven’t had any Iron Heart tees with graphics on so far, and the only t-shirt I have from IH is old and beaten up so comparisons are difficult.

The same seller is selling other IH stuff, but denim. Also has a load of other niche Japanese things. I do wonder if maybe the graphics were added after purchase. The shirt itself is very nice quality. But I also couldn’t find anything for IHT-2006. If that was a plain black t shirt then mystery solved.

Thought I would photo useful side of the tag. Also share ChatGPTs recommendation of how to try and authenticate…

Afternoon folks

I recently purchased the below tee shirt on Vinted. It is listed on the tag as IHT-2006.

The measurements match IH sizes, it’s at least tubular, very nice hand feel, but I can find no record of this shirt anywhere online. Not in Japan, nothing at all.

I am usually pretty good at tracking down fakes of other things, at least finding out if there is a source for them. I can find nothing like this for this shirt. (Though there are some fake t-shirts doing the rounds on AliExpress, happy to share links for these with the bosses).

Can anyone shed any light on this?

@sabergirl I bought it mostly out of curiosity. I’m in the UK so wouldn’t be quite so controversial, but a very soft shirt for an undershirt!

@Matt not sure where else to post it but I’m hoping someone might turn up here and know more!

Does Vinted count?

I can find no information about this shirt anywhere online. I’m hoping it’s not a fake, but it certainly doesn’t feel like it. IHT-2006 Japan Police.

That vest is amazing. Excited to see the photos of it!

I’m ready.

@Oaktavia my step dad was particularly pleased with that, apparently the gearbox going in there was a “dog box”. Whatever that means.
