  • RE: IHSH-369-GRY - 12oz Slubby Heavy Flannel Herringbone Check Western Shirt - Grey

    OK...I have been wearing this one around all morning and I can unequivocally say it is my favorite IH Heavy Flannel (I own eight other UHFs). It is the unique texture that is so interesting. The shirt feels slightly lighter overall, which makes it more versatile in warmer weather, and the slightly stiffer/courser exterior felt great on my walk this morning against wind gusts. The red/black colors almost appear overdyed as they are more muted than most UHFs...it is just a masterpiece of a shirt. Here are the pics, as promised! @stichdown-shell

  • RE: IH-526Lod - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo Overdyed Black

    Well...my 526LOD arrived this morning and it exceeds all expectations! I wanted to add an OD Type III to my wardrobe and was chatting with @Graham at the mothership about the 14oz OD...he told me that if I really wanted the best OD to go for the 19LOD. I will admit after seeing pictures of the non-OD version of this jacket online, I was hesitant to jump into something that looked so stiff and heavy. However, the OD process significantly softens the denim, so I decided to go for it. I ordered the Size L and it fits perfectly (5'10" 168 pounds)...I am blown away by the texture and inky finish on this jacket...I am really thrilled with it!!!

    One more pic for you guys that highlights the texture of this shirt vs a "standard" UHF:)

  • RE: IHSH-375-GRY - 12oz Slubby Heavy Flannel Herringbone Check Work Shirt - Grey

    Well, this is the first UHF/SHF release where I loved the shirt SO much that I decided to buy both the Western and the Work Shirt! The elusive Work Shirt just arrived last night and it is amazing! I am 5'10" 168 and I sized down on the Work Shirt to Medium and had the guys at Rivet & Hide select the biggest P2P/Shulder from the Mediums they had in stock...it fits perfectly! I will post some fit pics later, but here are a few pics...

  • RE: IHSH-343-OD - Ultra Heavy Flannel Tartan Check Work Shirt - Green Overdyed Black

    This beauty just arrived yesterday and it is a stunner!!! The OD gives it an inky appearance but the subtle plaid of the original shirt shows through brilliantly. I am more impressed with this shirt than I expected to be but it is really no surprise...it essentially combines the two things Iron Heart does best (other than denim of course)...UHF + OD. Choosing the color on this one was a no-brainer for me because it was the only pattern where I did not already own the non-OD version...love it!!!

    Here is a pic I took outside in natural light to try to capture the true color and subtle texture. Also, here is a quick fit pic on my way out the door! I am not sure whether I prefer the Work Shirt or Western...they both have their own unique charm!

  • RE: IHSH-293-OD - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black

    I have easily 30-40 Iron Heart items in my closet and this is by far my favorite piece of clothing...it is the epitome of everything that Iron Heart is great at in one piece. It can be used as a shirt or a jacket and the heavy-duty snaps are the icing on the cake!

  • RE: IHSH-379-GRN - Ultra Heavy Flannel Ombré Check Work Shirt - Green

    I really love the colors on this shirt. It is more subtle than one of the Crazy Check UHFs and has a really dark blue coloration in the dark areas that is much more apparent in outdoor sunlight!

  • RE: IH-555S-21od - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo Overdyed Black

    I am super excited to have finally picked up a pair of these! I purchased them at Rivet & Hide and am blown away not only by the jeans but also by their amazing customer service. After emailing back and forth for a week, the guys found me the perfect sizing. The craziest thing is that I needed them hemmed and I placed the order yesterday. So basically they measured, hemmed, and shipped within 2 hours and I have the pants in hand, in the US, just 21.5 HOURS after I placed my order...unbelievable!!! I will post some fit pics this weekend!!!

  • RE: IHSH-389-IND - 12oz Dobby Cloth CPO Shirt - Indigo

    These look really short in overall length, not for a shirt in general, but for a CPO shirt. I have the IHSH-293 OD CPO and it is slightly longer than a typical shirt. Not sure I would like a CPO as short as this one appears...would it not make the pockets too high to be useful?

  • RE: Dehen

    @Brandrea If you have any sensitivity to wool whatsoever, you will hate the Dehen. If you are still determined to give it a shot, another option is to look on Grailed for a like-new preowned...that is where I sold mine and the value tanked like an anchor. I sold it like new for $235 (MSRP $435). That way you don't have so much "skin" in the game...pun intended!

  • RE: Dehen

    @Brandrea I owned the Shawl Sweater Coat in Whiskey and I guess the "skin feel" is different for everyone, but it was absolutely the scratchiest wool garment I have ever worn. The forearm of the sleeve fits quite snug so unless I was wearing a long-sleeved mock turtleneck or something, any exposed skin felt like it was being lightly rubbed with sandpaper. I can wear my Filson Mackinaw Cruiser (which is also heavy wool) over a short-sleeved T-shirt with no issues, but the Dehen was just too much for me to handle so I sold it a month or so ago. I wish I could find a way to get along with it because the fit and quality is pure perfection. They use a different knit for the beanies, and I have three of those and wear them all the time...go figure!

  • RE: Heroes (Buying/ Selling/Trading)

    I have done a couple of transactions now with @branpureza and he is top-notch in every sense of the word! Great pricing, excellent communication, and lightning-fast shipping. The two pairs of IH 555 jeans that I purchased were like new and he even included the original Iron Heart brown shipping envelope in the box. Highly recommended...A+++

  • RE: IHSH-343-OD - Ultra Heavy Flannel Tartan Check Work Shirt - Green Overdyed Black

    @pechelman Thanks! Agreed...that was a happy accident:)

    @Transporter Thanks! I wore it last night and have worn it all day today and so far I am not seeing any OD bleed on my hands or on my white undershirt. Tha amount of color transfer appears to be much less than my 293OD-CPO or my 19OD Lefty Type III. It is also much much less than any of the IH denim jeans that I own. So far so good...I will be sure to update the thread as I get some more wear time on the shirt!
