What a blast to meet everyone last night! Totally worth the drive. The sincerity and sense of community and family within Iron Heart and Self Edge is real. Giles, your wife Paula is a true class act! What a charming person she is to talk to!

Are we secretly brothers……i too went on a health journey, for me it was losing 110 pounds! Fitness, diet and am completely transparent, one of the weight loss drugs to help.
Changed my wardrobe to clothes of all natural fibers as much as possible and tried to pick style from vendors/designers that I resonated with.
All of this change in weight, attitude, wardrobe, desire for quality over quantity all led me to Iron Heart and a few others. A journey that started on January 18th, 2023 and ongoing.

I went to try on the corduroys, I went to try on the chalk stripe, I put on the slubby and I immediately felt like I was home in it. This shirt is more seductive than the pictures make it look. It looks like a shirt you’ve always wanted to own and that you’ve owned for years thanks to the others who gave me advice, but you should’ve warned me about this one my bank account hold you responsible!:)

I got these in all three color ways, they truly have become the shorts of Summer! They are just so damn comfortable and not too short, nor too long. In other words…..great leg shorts.

Mine arrived today! Normally a perfect xxl in IH shirts and flannels, went with a xl due to shoulders being bigger than normal xxl sizing. It fits perfectly! I have to admit that before I put it on I was not sure what I thought about it, I let it hang up for a while, and then decided to put it on and took a look in the mirror and then I noticed how much the shirt pops against skin tone. The material is really soft to the hand, but yet looks substantial. I appreciate that the buttons are the same color as the shirt as much as I love snaps and fancy buttons sometimes it’s nice to have a shirt that just blends in nicely. As for the sewing, what do you say it’s always impeccable. I think this shirt is one that could get worn a lot. You can dress it up or you can dress it down. This shirt is cool….have been wearing it all day and have noticed that this “off-white” shirt takes on different hues in different light ranging from off-white to ecru to almost a buttery white! Very nice.

Turlock, California here! The almond capital of the world. We grow about 90% of the worlds supply! We also grow Iron Hearts here…..started with one, now have seven!!!

I have always loved these jackets, but they have often been too warm for where I live. It just doesn’t get that cold anymore, but this new light weight one might fit the bill. I love the look of it, and I think it would be able to be worn in moderate to cold weather!

I bought these shorts, hoping that they would be a denim jeans that would not look ridiculous like some denim jeans look like. These are so comfortable and so cool looking I ended up buying the two other colors! Heck, I think I was the only person in these shorts at the meet and greet in LA due to the warm weather. The fit of these really is that comfortable. They become your go-to almost immediately.

And also in black!

@pechelman let me try to clarify my thoughts better. When I see your bag that is changing colors, what I really see is a bag that’s been on 1000 adventures that have hopefully been a lot of fun and excitement. Have you ever heard of what is called “the observer effect”? What it essentially means is that when you see something or you are in the presence of something, it changes you or you change it just by the simple act of observing. That’s what I think about when I see your bag, you have changed it and it has changed you through all of your adventures with it. I personally think that’s pretty cool. It makes me want to get one:)

Anyone have a picture of the Iron Heart Double Tour on their wrist! The denim alternative to Hermes!

Strongest, most hard to unsnap rear pockets in the history of snaps! Lol

Got this in both blue and black. Substantial fabric without being to heavy. I think this shirt will be great for California spring and our for central valley summers! I purchased in Xl and it fit great. The blue looks terrific with my off-white momotaro jeans.

You did that by hand? Stitching is clean and crisp!:)

Still my most worn shorts of the summer!

What a great pic, looking sharp in the cpo, great scenery in the background. A little bit of paradise!

Leave my bank account alone! I need a new roof, but I want that shirt!,, lol

The people on this forum are so amazingly refreshing, so many different thoughts and opinions yet respectful towards one another! I truly love reading these threads!

Is there any thought to making a 21oz. Black sashiko shirt, the indigo one was amazing, black seems like a interesting idea.
