@Jett129 Couldn’t agree more with you. I’ve been lucky as I have had the opportunity to “peak behind the curtain” with a lot of roasters and see how they buy, roast and craft their coffees. That’s why I really like a place like Onyx as I know the attention to detail they put into everything and there are so many awesome places roasting coffee that way. Old City looks really cool and agree, there descriptions really highlight how they roast and how it tastes. I also am going to try that 1893 Blend—looks great! Thanks for this recommendation!!

I used to work in coffee for a living (barista at first and then did wholesale for a roaster as a barista trainer and then sales associate) and can confirm Madcap is a great way to go. I highly recommend Onyx Coffee based out of Arkansas. All their current offerings are great. I just picked up the "Southern Weather Blend" and it is on point. Great cup to wake up to. Blip in Kansas City has some good offerings right now as well and they have a cool motorcycle/coffee vibe going on. Glad to see some specialty coffee love on this thread!

Thanks! I did the same thing with my first who was born in 2017–had a raw Levis Trucker Jacket and loved how the side where I carry her faded and changed different. I've been tagging the pocket bags on my Iron Hearts with milestones and whatnot--it's something I will hold on to and it gives me an excuse to continue buying more Iron Heart pieces 

Greetings everyone,

My name is Andrew from good ol' Virginia–I'm a "long time listener, first time caller" of this forum having lurked for awhile. I've been an Iron Heart convert for about a year now and have picked up so many awesome pieces and always referenced the forum for people's reviews. I bought my first pair Iron Heart denim (IH-555-01) right before my second daughter was born last December so I could see them fade and age as she grew. It's been fun watching the almond butter and milk stains pile up on them. Glad to be a part of this community!
