They even copied the tag on the pocket! I

No they didn't, those are our stock photos

Can anyone confirm if this was an actual thing? I’m assuming if it was, it was a Japan only release. I’ve seen several Iron Heart x Mac Tools items floating around on eBay and some other sites. As a professional mechanic who owns a lot of Mac Tools, I want this to be a thing

@travisxray As far as I know, somebody has just sewn a patch on a pair of IH.

[travisxray]

@goosehd I kind of assumed that but I’ve seen enough of them now that I wondered if it was a thing. I’ve seen jeans, shirts, bibs but like you said, could just be people sewing on a patch.

It could be legit. I was looking at a hickory mechanics shirt with MAC branding a while back. Either way it’s cool especially if you’re into MAC.

I have no knowledge of it, but that does not mean it didnt happen at some point

[Giles]

I spoke to H, he says they are the real thing......

[goosehd]

Good to know and thanks for checking!

[travisxray]

@Giles Thanks so much for checking, I'll be on the hunt now!

[Mizmazzle]

@travisxray that’s pretty rad man! Hope you find a pair of something that you dig!!

I picked up a pair of 888 ducks on ebay a couple months ago that were supposedly from a previous production run (maybe 2022?). I'm not that worried about them being legit, as they have most things seeming legit, and honestly I wouldn't even have a question, except that the pocket bags are black instead of white. Figured maybe I could post here and see if the black pocket bags are expected from a previous run, perhaps?

I semi-drunkenly took my friend down the Iron Heart rabbit hole the other night after he complimented a few pieces I was wearing and said I was always 'so well put together'.

Was explaining the lifetime repairs policy, and he asked 'but how will they know if it's fake or not?' Fair question, but I just smirked and said 'Oh, they'll know!'

@schraiber Post a picture and someone will be able to tell you!

[Matt]

@schraiber are you sure theyre 888? My 777 has black pockets, stitching and W.

[schraiber]

Here's a bunch of pics. I'm not feeling too worried as this website seems to show an interior shot of some 888D with black pocket bags

@schraiber

IH-888D
Last picture on IH-UK shows also a glimpse of the black pockets.

@Aetas Good find! That eases my mind (not that it needed that much ease, to be honest)
