Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?

[Dion]

I too like the idea of a denim and/or duck wallet. Just imagine the evo of it…

A tri-fold, in 21oz, with those oversized IH copper snaps for the closure.

With regard to shirts, I'd like a cut with a smaller trunk & waist with regard to the shoulders (that is to say, same shoulder measurements, smaller chest & waist). I understand this is probably not possible, but it doesn't cost anything to ask, eh….

Flat Head is your brand then mate…

Unfortunately, in that regard, Seul is right (had to happen one day)….

Treasuring this moment… Writing it down in my diary... Having a bit of cake...

[Dion]

Cake and beer? Sounds legit.

@emceeQ Christmas cake and beer?

For the sake of continuing the discussion (all in good spirit  ;)), there's a 6" difference in chest measurement between shirts by IH and TFH (for a shoulder measurement of 18.3"-18.6"). Surely there is a market for something in between.  (Not a scientific sampling - just looked at a few flannel workshirts on SE.)

I've been vocal about this in the past as well. Initially I thought maybe IH catered to beer bellies, but after thinking about it some more it could be the case that it is the result of a comfort issue regarding the seated position on a motorcycle. I'm not sure but that would make sense.

I'm a pretty average build…......I think.

IH fits me, TFH does not.

Not knocking TFH, just built for a different body type.....

And for those who don't know, I was the agent for TFH in Europe until a few years ago.  I had to make a decision about who I batted for.......The rest is history...

[JDelage]

Yeah, TFH's sizing is weird. That's why I was advocating for something in between. Certainly not trying to turn IH into another TFH. Anyway, I'll drop it now. Just wanted to be clear. Completely understand that IH cannot do everything whatever the size of the market.

3/4 sleeve heavy weight shirt

Just like the awesome IHTL-1501 but three quarter sleeve length…

[MontanAdam]

Since last I heard you are retiring the denim, you should do an update to the IHSH-99.  Heavy, black overdyed, CPO style with muted stitching.

[Giles]

I like your handle and I like the idea - watch this space….

[Giles]

OK.  Here is the plan.

We have some 17oz denim that is slightly sub-standard.  It can't be used for "normal" indigo stuff as the indigo is slightly uneven, but Haraki thinks that it will be perfect for overdying.

So we are going to make another batch of IHSH-99 out of it…..

Whilst that is happening, I am going to run a sample of the IHSH-76 out of the new 18oz vintage denim......

[neph93]

^ Both those things make me happy. I'd given up on owning a 99 and while I do like my 76 a lot, it's a shacket/layering piece and I'd like a smaller heavy denim CPO as well.

[Anesthetist]

A vintage denim 76 sounds really good!

Very cool. I got one of the last IHSH-76 xl out of Japan, and it's a very nice piece of gear.
