So sick. Im In the middle of a weight loss journey right now but im definitely rewarding myself with one of these as soon as im done!

Looking for some double knee pants in black. Something along the lines of the IH801 in an actual size between 36-39. Might also consider some double knee overalls as well. Who's holding?!

Hey Brock, any chance you would be looking at trades? I was interested in the Grease Point jeans. I have a pair of IH Duck work pants. I completely forgot the model number but I can check after work if you are interested. They have been worn probably twice and have just been hanging in the closet for awhile ver a decade now. Size is a 36. Let me know if you would be interested and I can shoot you some pics with all the info tonight. Thanks!

@Alex:

@mikesantor good thought. We used to make this:

But it has become too hard to produce them in Japan (I think the factory is overwhelmed). I reached out to Simmons Bilt to ask them to source a suitable hide and we will sample

Amazing! Thanks, Alex.

I lust after this beauty in all black 

Fuuuuuuuu All time favorite flannel in my all time favorite color.
Currently in the process of losing all my "Manual labor to desk job" weight. Going to cop this as soon as I hit my goal.

@henry_david:

Jesus H that looks good @mikesantor  ???

Thank you, Sir.
I have zero skills in leather craft but I know how to bang some shit together to "just make it work" 

Now I save for a GA Shorty Chain…

@mikesantor:

Still going after years. The ring ripped off pretty early on but everything else is still stout as F.

Guess its time for an update on Ol' Girl….

After this changed hands 3 times and somehow made it back to me, I Got board with the Brass hardware and Ox Blood Cordovan. Since mine was Originally an OG with the drilled coin, Anesthetist hooked me up with the Sterling IH coin for the makeover.

OG IHG-02 + Fiebings leather dye + Horween 8oz Dublin Leather + Indian Nickle + Old Copper Roofing Nails =

The IHG-02 that just wont die...

I was quickly skim reading through my "unread" posts list, saw "Leather thong" and got damn excited. Turnes out it's just a bunch of dude toes…

Ur the best, saber. I looked through the website for 45 minutes for a damn email address…

Anyone have any ideas on what the 3 different sizes are these come in? The sizes are listed as AA, A and B. There are no email addresses on GAs website and I have officially scoured the internet, checked every stockist and no one has sizes listed.
I'm shocked that GA doesn't have any kind of "Contact us" on their site…

Thank you, Sir.

What's up, Brother?! I was thinking about you when I pulled my 02 out of retirement. Been good all things considered. How about yourself? Shoot me a DM with info on the necklace. I'm going back and forth on the idea of getting mine back up and running and buying a new black one.

Giles, any crazy chance I could buy just the silver ring from one of these? I'm putting my 02 back into rotation and my ring fell off like 10 years ago. I would love to get another one to retrofit. Let me know, Sir.

So I have owned this shirt in an XL for years now which fits nicely with a tshirt underneath it. I'm strongly contemplating buying another in XXL that I can put a hoodie underneath and sew a bunch of patches on it making it a battle jacket. Also possibly contemplating the work shirt version but I still think im leaning towards the western…

This thread rules.

I posted these years ago but here is a pair of SRs after a few years of industrial construction in Chicago. Unfortunately I have lost a lot of weight and these dont xome close to fitting me any more. Now they just hang in the closet.

I need to ditch my uniform pants at work and destroy some more IH.

@beautiful_FrEaK:

Going from Iron Heart (or most Japanese brands) to N&F is very likely to be a disappointment. It’s a complete different league (and also a different target audience).

Agree 110%

I own both and I am not going to lie, I love how some of my N&F fit me but the few pairs I have had have literally fallen apart with very little wear. More then any cheap Levis ever have. I have/had 2 pairs that lost the patch, started ripping at the pocket corner, belt loops came off, etc. I was riveting them all back together. All with less then probably 20 wears each.

But then I have a pair of I want to say Elephant 2s (maybe 3s) that I cut into shorts for summer festival season like 3 years ago now that i have wore the piss  out of, lots of sitting on concrete, grass, stone, rock, etc and i dont think there is 1 lose thread on them. They are SOLID.

Maybe just A QC issue?

I want those 32oz in black so bad. everyone out…

@Dion:

They love the 777 cut.

Great part is, this is the cut that I have wanted to try for a year now and just have not done it yet. Im going to give them a try and if I like the cut, im coping them 25OZs. We just got our first snow of the year last night. I need some 25s in my life.

OMG this makes me so happy. I know what im doing next weekend.
