The Evolution of Iron Heart

[Giles]

Alex, our prodigal son, arrived yesterday to spend Christmas with us, he was sporting his 2 year old Indigo Riders Jacket:  http://www.ironheart.co.uk/html/indigo527j.htm

Here are a few pics:

Awesome diamonds on that last picture! Very nice.

The black ones of Hiromoto's have held up well. Hardly any fade. One can see the suppleness (is that a word?) of the material.

The black ones of Hiromoto have taken on a velvety sheen. It's beautiful !

I'm surprised at the low amounts of pictures of worn in Iron Hearts floating around. Post more people!

just trying to capture the evo process

BK07 @ 4 weeks of daily wear

[DougNg]

I'll post up my 07's soon. Indigo, three weeks more or less. Already getting atari fades I do A LOT of travelling in these

[Guest]

Those BK07s look pretty fucking amazing Beatle !

[Beatle]

I am really curious to see some evo pics of the 07 indigo version …please post whatever pics you have

[Seul]

I seriously considered buying the indigo version as well and get rid of my other jeans. But I can't (have a bet going: can't buy jeans til July, as mentioned in another thread).

[Guest]

July will be here before you know it Seul. And after IH, I can totally understand why you'd want to get rid of your other jeans. I've gone through wardrobe purging myself, after Iron Heart walked into my life.

I'll try to get some pics this weekend. I do a lot of travelling in my jeans, and they show it. As it stands, the jeans have already been to Annapolis MD and Edison NJ, as well as all over Downstate NY. That's since New Years

By April, they'll have seen Annapolis MD again, Atlanta GA, and San Juan Puerto Rico

By September, they'll have seen been to Annapolis a few more times, New Orleans LA, Washington DC more than once, Newport Beach CA, Seattle WA, and anywhere else the government decides to send me

This should be an interesting year

[Beatle]

Looking forward to the pics***

Mind you, I have Flat Head, Samurai, and Oni jeans. So it's not as if I'm stuck with lousy jeans… It's just that the fit, the feel, the details; everything just works out perfectly with the SExIH07.

[Guest]

Damn, Seul…you have quite a high end collection there. Especially the Samurai and Oni. After hearing this, I guess I had better stick with Iron Heart, lest I am disappointed with other "high end" brands.

[Seul]

If you knew how many pairs I sold and bought in 2009 (only to keep a couple I was 100 % satisfied with), you'd think I was crazy. EASILY 15-20 pairs… I bought about 5 pairs of Sams alone, just to give you an idea...  :-\

Seul:
Though I probably wouldn't go through all that effort myself, I'm impressed that you did. You're like me…if perfection exists, then you're not happy with clothes that don't meet the ideal.
