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

The Forum has not been a good predictor of what will or will not sell.

Correct. Listening to the cool kids is no recipe for success. There just aren't enough of them

[Nik]

It's like how political candidates get nominated by the activists in the party and then have to switch up the message to attract a wider population

[Giles]

Exactly. I fell foul of listening to the cool-kids years ago. They were younger, more hip and I thought, more in tune with the wider customer base than me. So I listened.......

And made some of the slowest selling stuff we have ever made

[Aetas]

If I recall correctly, you stuffed a whole production of a jacket into the attic to pull out at some point @Giles?

[Giles]

Well remembered.......

[tody]

I‘m intrigued. Which one and has it been pulled since?

[Giles]

It was a printed mechanics jacket. It was pulled and sold super cheap to some of our Asian retailers....

[Mister_Brue]

@Giles At least the cool kids were happy.

[Giles]

Yeah, all 3 of them who bought it

[tody]

So which model was it then? I'd like to know if I would have been one of the cool kids

[Giles]

That'll take some searching....Will research

[tody]

Cool. I like reading about such oddities...
Recently came across a pair of BKSP on eBay or Grailed and saw that that gained zero traction on here, and that fell possibly in the same category.

[Giles]

Not sure even the cool kids queued up to by them....

[Mister_Brue]

Damn cool kids; saying one thing, then doing another.

[GandalftheGray]

I definitely second 888 18oz OD would be perfect

[jdwaid]

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but a primaloft quilted hoodie would be

[John Galt]

An IH-822D; 17oz Duck Double Knee Engineer Pants - Brown

@pechelman ooh that's clean. Never seen this before. Would love to see a re-interpretation of this in new colorways with the IHV-44 hand warmers and no (or just internal) chest pocket...

[pechelman]

There are about four different colors of this out there I think. In addition to the blue I think I've seen a black, khaki, and something that reminded me of orange sherbet.
