And standing awkwardly, about to get some headshots taken.

We've done this three times now and will continue to do so, so I think it's officially a holiday tradition. There's a nice hotel in the area called The Lodge at Torrey Pines, and it's an absolutely gorgeous building which (and I'm not architecture expert, so please forgive me if I mess this up) seems like a combination of craftsman and Japanese design, and it's just stunning. We go there, see the carolers singing by a big fireplace, and tuck ourselves into a little room off of the bar for a martini and what they call the "Drug Store Burger." It's a pretty fancy place, so it's definitely a treat to go there. Anyway, here are some pics that my wife took last night.

My first par of IH jeans. Circa 2011.

Not the most conventional tool, but a shop apron is absolutely a tool. Having some of my most-used hand tools at the ready is super important, and rather than buying something that already exists that I'd likely be unhappy with, I decided to make my own fully custom apron.

This was nearly 80 hours of labor, and a shit ton of leather!

This is a project I've been meaning to get to for a long time, and I finally got it done today. I have two tees (one black and one navy) that had some bleach spots on them. No idea how they got there, but I've been wearing them for a while and wanted to get them fixed. I got some dye, and decided to do them both black. And while I was at it, I wanted to dye my white shirt red. The bleach spots are gone (hooray!), and the black over navy came out really cool. I'm also very happy with the red. Here are the results.

@Mizmazzle Sage advice.

@chrisjohnnick Depends what you're using it for. If it's just an internet/email/entertainment machine, a laptop probably isn't necessary. For example, I'm constantly using the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite, and the full functionality of those programs are only available on a laptop/desktop.

@Dbol I think that's the IHSH-65, pale blue mock twist chambray. https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/post/1747

@Kasi said in The Flat Head:

@twin the jeans are pronto

Have the four amigos now

Flat Head, Fine Creek, Real McCoys Iron Heart

Now may aim at Y2

What about Double Helix?

Another vote for purple. Be bold!

@pechelman thanks! Yeah, I did a bunch of tie-dyeing during lockdown and got pretty familiar with their products. It’s not as complicated as it seems. Dissolve some soda ash in water and either soak your item in the soda ash solution or go ahead and add the dye as well (like I did in the pics above) to do it all at once. Let it sit for 30-60 minutes and you’re done!

@Mizmazzle

I've been wanting a pink tee for a while, so I made one.

@wjw are you talking about the release schedule?

@wjw which calendar are you referring to?
