RE: Iron Heart spotted on celebrities
Spotted Dan Auerbach of the black keys rocking what looked like some sbg but wasn’t sure of the model. And his belt looked like IH too.

RE: IH-555S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Indigo PREVIOUSLY IH-555-01
Two years of wear on these. Definitely my favourite and most well worn pair. They’re a little too loose (or at least looser than they were at purchase, but they might’ve been too tight then ) following 20kg of weight loss since they were purchased but still fit pretty good with a belt I think? Eyeing my next pair with new sizing in mind is a bit daunting now mind you

RE: Belstaff
Thank you for all your input dudes. I think a few people have hit the nail on the head with prices. The J35 or Real McCoys j100 are about the same and I get the impression that if I can get the sizing right, one of them will be an incredible investment whereas the Belstaff might be a bit more ‘fashionable’. If I’m honest, I feel the fit was decent but the fact it has the emblem on the sleeve is a little…ostentatious maybe?

RE: IH-721-BLK - 9oz Mercerised Selvedge Cotton Slim Tapered Chinos - Black
I just got my pair through the post from R&H yesterday. I think I first considered these as a potential option for work a couple of years ago (maybe 3) so they’re something of a grail purchase for me and wow, they are something else. Sized up one from my 555s and they’re perfect. I have had chinos from a few different brands over the years and always associate chinos as a soft sort of laundered fabric almost fluffy/moleskin/twill depending on the brand but to call these simply chinos is, I think, a disservice to them (but isn’t that kinda always the way with this IH gear? It’s never just a pair of jeans/shirt/jacket; it’s always something extra, aknots intangible and of the utmost excellence). There is definitely the cut and pockets etc that you’d expect from a chino, but the fabric is more akin to a work pant like dickies or carhartt but with a lustre and comfort that puts those others in the shade. And obvs they are bulletproof in terms of construction and hardware and then that spicy wee flash of selvage. Delicious.

Any idea of a restock or any other stockists who might have some stock left of these bad boys?

Apologies if this has been asked already or covered in the live launch, but are there any plans to bring this fabric to denims?

Belstaff
Guys, keen to find out what people think of Belstaff leather jackets in terms of quality etc. tried one on yesterday and was quite impressed but haven’t been lucky enough to see an IHJ35 in the flesh to compare…

RE: IH-555-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Jeans - Indigo
So I’m in the mood for trying 25oz. Currently have 555s and sbg in 31 and 30 respectively both of which fit pretty well and I love. The S are a little looser overall but nothing especially noticeable or crazy. My question is, do I size up for XHS and opt for the 32 (which, according to size charts, my 555S seem to match pretty closely in the waist etc as they are now) to account for shrinkage and to cope with the extra heft of the fabric, or is it better to stick to 30/31 as my sbg and s are respectively. Below are some recent pics of my 555S for reference. Also, the uhf is my first and it’s a thing of beauty.
