The Iron Heart Website - a Pictorially Embarrassing Journey…

[Giles]

So with the help of Way Back Machine we can bring you links to the old versions of www.ironheart.co.uk.  It's a tad embarrassing…..

Here is V1 that I wrote in Dreamweaver.  I probably said at the time, I wanted the site to look retro, in reality, it was because I was shite at Dreamweaver

Just look at all the products we sold…...

A later version of the same site….

Then one day @shoque  emailed me out of the blue and asked: "are you for real?".  I asked him what he meant and he told me what he thought of the website.  My reply "if you can do better wise-arse, I'm all ears.

So Peter wrote V2 and we were amazed….

Loving this, but waiting for the full development arc to become clear before I point and laugh.

In all seriousness though this is great to see. Thank you G.

That is an amazing evolution over the years.

And then we had V3….

How's this for our first ever product page?  Yeah, I know, a little lacking…...

Oh the fond memories…

V3 was when I first visited the site I believe. I was looking for a pair of size 40 Selvedge jeans with thighs that could fit me. You were out of size 40 at the time. I emailed and I think Paula emailed me back to tell me you would have them back in stock soon. I think I was scared of the price tag and didn’t want to wait. So
I bought Tellason….. damn it. . Here I am delayed but clothed in IH

Do you have approximate dates for when each version was in use?

[Max Power]

I Remember v2 so well!

I always loved the selvedge edge on the V3 the best. That's what the site looked like when I first saw it.

@Chris I can do that when I have decent connectivity, in the back of a taxi atm….

If you click on the links to go into the actual archived site you get a date tracker.

Seconded! I was also intrigued by the red W on black denim ;).
