The 68-blk was my first Iron Heart purchase, back in the summer of 2018. Some of the buttons were not sewn on particularly well, which took me aback a little, but I still liked the shirt enough to buy a couple more pieces over the years...

wearing this sweater made from an old blanket,
I think of those heavy metal scissors
in a workshop in Duluth
sliding across the table & slicing
in hefty, fuzzy crunches
through Hudson Bay.
the whirr of the sewing machine in otherwise still.
more snips to trim.
Made in England, then chopped up & put back
together differently in Minnesota
a few decades later.
sounds about right.

Stopped into BlackBlue today and they still had an XL in stock.

They don't anymore

Probably my biggest apolitical rant of the modern world:

Headlights and every-other-bastard's exterior residential lights have gone too far. Shit is fully mental now. When I am king, lumen limits and light-shielding requirements will be strictly enforced.

A thread for easily overlooked coincidences of the universe that caught your interest.

It seems to me that a group of people who obsess over things like the gentle gradations of whiskers and honeycombs in denim could possibly be people who notice interesting (at least to themselves!) quirks of the universe that others might easily overlook.

I am interested in those things that a thousand people would walk by, but which stopped you in your tracks and made you investigate or just pause to appreciate it. Something tiny, perhaps, that moved or intrigued you; or both.

Case in point. Last night, I was out walking and saw what looked like a dead moth on the ground. But it's February in Minnesota, so there's no moths flying around to drop dead in the first place.

Closer inspection revealed a pebble with shadows cast by two roughly equidistant floodlights.

Lots of longboarding in these jeans. I don't usually go for a strong taper, but it's nice having fabric out the way when you're walking the board.

Been a fun week! Cheers for the fun stories and snaps!

7 years.

Enjoying the little electric-blue pops that are showing up a coupla weeks in. Such a fun fabric.
