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

@daveo:

Nice!  I love TAD stuff.

I have a HUGE amount of TAD jackets. My favorite is probably the Vanquish jacket. I just got their Robin Hoody in wool for the winter as well

I either missed their new Street Warrior leather or they never posted it on their website…

@Giles:

i'll find out in a couple of weeks.  G

Great, I was about to pull the trigger on a Buzz Rickson watch cap and I figured that I'd better ask about IH stuff first.  Hopefully they are not awfully far off though, it's starting to get chilly here!

as arrow stated earlier, i would like to see some workwear related stuff…. especially shortsleeve mechanic style shirts, watch caps, and maybe some thermal tops.

also, i like the concept of the wallet chain and bracelet, but really wasn't digging the "chain" look. what about a steel braided hose/brake line/fuel line style wallet chain and bracelet. if that was to take in effect, i'd buy an iron heart wallet to go with it

Cool idea Pete.  I'll talk to Haraki

[Giles]

I am definitely going to be doing some work shirts with Haraki.  Both long sleeve and short sleeve.  Tell me what you would like to see detail/fabric wise.

SIince I grew up wearing these shirts, I would love to see them with the Haraki-San craftsmanship! Ben Davis 1/3 or 1/2 Zip Short Sleeve a la Iron Heart. Would love 21oz SuperBlack as always, but also a heavy Navy or Khaki Chino material. Also, a little more fitted…

I really dig the asymmetrical pockets on some vintage work shirts, as well as the two button collar (I believe this is called a chin strap?).  As far as materials, the usual suspects (chambray, various flannels, hickory stripe) as well as a Dickies shirt like material would be great.

PS…it's starting to get cold here in Minnesota and my head could use some love...

[Giles]

I know your head needs some love.  I'm going to discuss Hickory stripe engineers cap with Haraki, but it won't happen in the short term.  G

Hey G,

Any knitwear concepts in the pipeline?

Loop wheeler sweats, yes, knitwear not yet

[malibuboy]

IH/loopwheeler sweats sounds troublesome… 

I was also thinking about a IH Knife Case with a belt loop or with an Iron Heart quality clip of some sort. SuperBlack of course. Also, a Prison Issue Style Beanie/ Skull Cap. I am picturing the the Navy Alcatraz style and possibly with the leather patch on it.

Any chance of getting fit pics of the IH-9461? Just want to see how it compares to the 634/9634. Thanks!

Ghost, I'll put fitpix up of the IH461S (same cut) up on the fitpix thread later today.  I have not got 9461 here in my size.

How a bout a denim covered tape measure? In fact, how about a sewing kit with needle, diff IH threads, buttons/ rivets? And if these sound good, how about a travel set containing the above items as well as a few others. IH lighter, IH screwdriver, IH tire gauge, compass, etc…

Sometimes I wish I hadn't started this thread ::)

Are the IH branded bics going to be available anytime soon?

Also, what about a pair of riders gloves?  I feel like I saw TFH produce a couple pairs.  Would love to see an IH branded pair.

Nice idea - gloves, not the bics

Bics meaning lighters or am I missing something?
