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

The winch on the docks was called a donkey, hence the name

Ah, thank you.

@wdw:

Apologies if this has been asked, but will there be a 634S-sbg?

I asked H to run me a sample this morning…....

@bertoni:

Collar's a bit big for me. Love the collar on the one worn by the geezer second in from the left:

I've had two, one short collar and one long collar. Pure style-wise I prefer a long collar.

@madmonday:

why is it called a donkey jacket?

reminds me of the chore/work jackets Iron Heart does but in wool

They are thick and heavy wool, normally lined. Sometimes flannel, sometimes tartan. The patch on the shoulder and back was leather on the older ones but some kind of plastic on newer ones. As Danny mentioned they acquired strong associations with working class militant socialism during the 80's because they were used by miners, dockers, ship builders amongst others. Trades with strong politically engaged unions.

Spring weight flannels with a not too crazy pattern just like the 22/23.

Oxidized metal snaps.  Similar to the copper snaps on some shackets.  I think silver oxidized snaps would be awesome on an overdyed shacket like the 99.  The snaps would start totally black and slowly fade/age down to silver with wear.

Giles, did you ever think about making jeans out of hemp? If you send me your head size I will get you one of those hemp hats I like so you can see how heavy and soft it is.

I prefer Jackets from the Cut like a Deck Jacket.
Maybe a "Light Version"in a sheer Jungle Cloth or a similar Cloth.

^ A jungle cloth "chore coat" or unlined deck jacket w/ a hidden snap placket instead of buttons would be super cool.

The brown duck version of the first zip was a success.  A Primaloft lined version of that jacket would be dope.

+1  … sounds interesting

I have the duck first zip. Love the thing. I wear it when I can, aging slowly, but nicely.

Any interest in making raglan sleeve hoodies?  I'd definitely buy one.  They usually seem to fit me better.

[sabergirl]

+1 for raglan sleeves!
