im not taking swipes at your logic or data. im just griping that i cant fit myself into your shirts. i suppose this should have gone in the "griping" forum. but i will say that most shirts i see with a Pit to pit of 24-25" typically falls under a XXL size. but i don't have much access to Japanese clothing brands. and i know you cant make shirts for the few of us who want them in a larger cut. you are after all in the business of making money as well as making indestructible clothing.

I understand your gripe @Matty123 but honestly Iron Heart is the most "western friendly" japanese brand that I am aware of in terms of fit.

@Matty123 if you are local to an Iron Heart vendor, maybe trying a shirt on might change your mind . . . or prove your point.
The work shirts do tend to be roomier & from time to time some shirts are freakishly big (none come to mind at the moment but will edit when I think of one).
Oh & sorry if I'm just throwing salt in the wound
Now on to my question of the week
Can someone point me in the direction of some nice suspenders that won't look weird with work pants/jeans (I know subjective)? I'm not sure why (besides wanting to look like Mork & Gallagher), but I want suspenders for a pair of work pants & maybe a pair of jeans.
please & thanks in advance

where do you guys who live in the states send your IH jeans to get hemmed? Railcar? SelfEdge? any other options? I've never had a pair hemmed before but I've got a few pairs that need it.

I like to use Blue in Green. Very fast and they have always done a good job.
I'm located on the east coast, so maybe that's why I get them done and back so fast. I'm hesitant to use anyone else now due to having to wait.

Thanks @Giles. Just what I was looking for

Thanks for the input @yinzer.
my main concern is that I want the thread color to match the original IH thread. It may sound like a silly detail but it's important to me.

I didn't get a new phone for years, but when I did last year I was shocked by how big they got. My FC Type II is the only jacket with pockets big enough to fit the phone and be buttoned up. I also find the inner pockets of the IH Type IIIs and the SH 105 very useful. But I don't have an alternative for the backpockets when I just wear a T-Shirt.

@Giles ( and anyone else who cares to Chime in) Has IH ever considered making a broken twill denim? I've always liked the look. I have an old non-selvedge broken twill denim jacket that I keep Around for posterity. In my 40 years of wearing jeans. I have uknowingly purchased a few pair of broken twill jeans and They've been some of My favorites. Just wanted your thoughts.

Heavyweight broken twill hasn't ever been done, to my knowledge. Iron Heart territory for innovation. I would love to have some in a nice tapered cut–maybe the new one with the roomy thighs!

Natural indigo warp, sexy-soft IH 21 oz weft. Kind of like double indigo. But the natural indigo weft so the fabric doesn't appear purple in sunlight.
