The Project RE:LOVE Swatch Bag is created entirely from new offcuts saved from our hemming process. Instead of discarding them, we stitch them into functional patchwork totes that carry the DNA of Iron Heart’s toughest fabrics.

Every bag is handmade in Gosport, England, using the same vintage machines we rely on daily: Union Special for chain stitching, Singer darner and flat stitcher for reinforcement, and a 5-thread overlocker set to Iron Heart Japan specs. Straps are triple-stitched and the opening is secured with heavy-duty Iron Heart copper snaps for strength and longevity.

RELOVE Condition

Project Relove Upcycle

Project RE:LOVE is our initiative to extend the life of unwanted or retired Iron Heart clothing. However, not all pre-worn items we receive are in good enough condition to be resold as RELOVED garments — but that doesn’t mean their journey ends there. In our commitment to sustainability and waste reduction, unsellable jeans that would otherwise end up in landfills are upcycled into a range of unique, handcrafted accessories.

Care Guidelines

- Spot clean only — washing may cause shrinkage and distortion
- Not returnable if washed — washing is done at your own risk
- Expect panels to wear, fade, and soften in completely unique combinations
