Also posting up a test message to see whether my group labels appear!

As someone who probably fits into the young Iron Heart wearing motorcyclist demographic, the biggest thing for me would be the option for added protection. I'm thinking either pockets for D30 armour, or with armour already built in. That's part of the reason why I ride with a Belstaff, rather than sticking one of my Iron Heart jackets. I do ride in my IH jeans, but it would be reassuring to be able to include protection on the knees and hips. Most of my riding is urban, so I'm travelling at low speed and take the view that 21oz is at least going to offer some more protection than riding along in a pair of store bought jeans.

In terms of styling, Iron Heart already nail it, that's why I wear your stuff. But for a brand so built around motorcycling in its marketing, I've always thought the lack of protection is a bit of an oversight. To my mind, it sounds as though the IH Racing line could be a good way of addressing that gap.

An absolute stunner. That is the A1 piece of the collection for me. Form completed!

@Max:

^the 55 is my favorite as well, the Fading was so nice!

My product of choice is the IH-X256J (I always forget the Name). Black Cotton duck, Type III with pockets - I loved it from the start, but didn't get it until it was on sale. So did a few others - I think demand after the sale was higher than before. Still can't understand why they didn't sell better.

@nietenhosen:

Great fades on that @Max Power! I managed to pick one up on the market place a couple of years ago and haven't stopped wearing it since. I've got nothing on yours though!

Headed down to Crystal Palace Park in London to see the annual London to Brighton Mini Run this weekend. Fantastic cars, people and weather for the day. Was gutted that I wasn't able to join the run as my classic mini is still in the workshop for a rebuild.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the photos, there's plenty more on my Flickr page.

@Anesthetist:

Gorgeous combination. Where did you find the perlon?

Cheers @Anesthetist managed to pick up one of the last ones from Watch Gecko. They don't have them on their website anymore but may still have a couple on eBay.

It's a Eulit strap, and they make some nice combinations, so you may have luck with another supplier. I think I saw some on Amazon.

New perlon strap for my Nomos metro, teamed with the nine lives raglan shirt.

Decided to repurpose one of the large Iron Heart bags that the t shirts ship in. The addiction fund

Gotta start somewhere right?!

@wralph that fit is completely spot on. Enjoy your new found addiction [emoji1306]

Fit looks spot on @adman103. Like the wallet leash too.

Currently wearing my pair at the moment too.

Great pics @twin! Perfect fit for horsing around in!

These are definitely on my wish list, but a recent purchase of Nine Lives' shirt has delayed me picking up a pair. Fingers crossed my size stays in stock for just a little bit longer!

Finally caved in and bought the wine coloured raglan shirt from @Danny RnH. I saw how all of the other sizes had flown out the door, and thankfully I'm a small.

Given how limited these were it pushed me over the edge to pick this up, rather than a pair of PIH5DCS, as there are still a few pairs in my size.

Following Junior's recommendation I've given it a gentle wash just to remove any shrinkage, as they hadn't washed the small. Now the anticipation whilst it dries in the sun to make sure it fits!

Fit pics (hopefully!) to follow.

Damn that looks fantastic in the sun @UnTucked.

Great fit @Appfaff! Think the straight cut really works for you.

Beautiful looking shirt @Sam.

Wow, nice haul @Brock  :o

I'm exactly the same as @neph93. These have quickly settled into knock around duties, but they still look smart when paired with a shirt. Will post a few pics when I get a chance as this page doesn't get enough love.

They're definitely not as heavyweight as I was expecting when I bought them, but they're perfect for "warmer" UK months.

Absolutely stunning! Love those boondockers, there's definitely a hole in my collection that needs to be filled.
