2013 Autumn/Winter Pipeline

Want one yet?

Yep

Sorry, as much as I love the stormrider - i dislike the corduroy collar. I just feels it disrupts the clean optic. Never was a fan of those collars.
-
It may be because for the last 12 years I've supported myself by my art (not the computer variety but art thats still done in the old fashioned done-by-hand style) and understand just how much work is put into things that people seldom realize. Just an observation.
Good point. A mate of mine is a tattooist as well, and sometimes he gets people bitching about it costing $X per hour. What they don't realise is that he spends his evenings and weekends practicing, creating new designs, refining techniques, etc. He doesn't get paid a cent for that time.
Same with clothes - I can only imagine all the 'behind the scenes' stuff that gets into making a pair of jeans, jacket, or whatever. Considering all this, as discussed various times before, IH doesn't have a particularly large profit margin on most items.
-
It's simple economics: nobody forces you to buy in case you rate the subjective value of an item lower than it's retail price. And regarding tattoos: I wonder how often people think: "Hey, it looks kinda shitty, but at least I saved me 50 bucks."

Looking forward to this 101J - love the front yoke on Lee riders, I've found it very flattering. Stormrider/lined would be amazing.
Can I mention the 'P' word?….

This jacket will stay effectively as is. IF it sells well, then I may consider doing a Storm Rider. It really depends upon the take up from retailers, jackets sell super slow compared to jeans and shirts. Making them more specialist (lined for eg) and thus more expensive throttles back demand further. Would I buy a IH Storm Rider if it was issued? hell yeah, but that does not mean enough others will.

very nice, will keep a look out as i don't have enough denim outerwear

The original had plastic cinch buttons. They had a rationale for that, but I can't recall what it was.
This is one reason I love iron heart, not a slavish repro. I like these type III style metal cinch buttons. Though, what I would like even more would be branded copper buttons like I've seen on a couple of IH items. This piece would resemble the original (I.e, be more "repro" and contradicting the point I made above, but still being rad) more:
-
Yes G daddy like!

The morning after Fogo de Chao was some NLMS…
