@Matt don't jinx it bro

@twin through the woods is it

@twin bonkers how you get these fades to look my friend.

@twin this 14oz fabric is insane with how beautiful the blues are. Like a hard blue candy color.

@Luijim78 thank you Luiji, always a pleasure to read your kind encouragement on here. A marvelous jacket this one. Glad you fished yours out!

@ARNC said in Iron Heart stickers (what do you stick them on)?:

More every time I count! Maybe 21 (which would be fitting), or I could cop out and say a plurality!

Haha I think that is about right! Mabye 22?

@Jcaz6996 you got this man! Love the updates.

@pechelman it fits like a glove man. I like that it is shorter too. I prefer to tuck my tshirts in most of the time. I have the western version of this jacket with about 180 wears from a few years ago. I ordered it right when it dropped. I pulled it out of my closet the other day. I'll take photos and post them side by side sometime soon.

Fit pics with this beautiful jacket. This will now be my baseline for how Type 3s should fit me. It feels damn near perfect. Thanks to @Graham helping assure me that an XL was likely the best option.

How many IH stickers do you see?

@goosehd @Jcaz6996 this is definitely worth a shot before trying a stretcher I would reckon. The stretcheders can damage the jeans if not done carefully.

@Jcaz6996 might need a pants stretcher my man. Assuming the could be buttoned before the soak easily. Do you have one? About 20 bucks on Amazon I have use a pants stretcher and hat stretcher both worked well. Will save you time and some discomfort.

Edit: something like this

The one I have works on XHS too, I tried it on thr Pronto indigo/indigo. Just might need to stretch them again after washes.

@Jett129 thanks I hate it

P.S. please spank the Steelers on Christmas!

@meatmarketdenim1 thanks homie. def worth it, I'm on cloud 9 rn.

@T4920 thanks Tom, I appreciate it! I'm interested in how it will look when I grow my hair back again. I have one more head tattoo on Jan 4th before I do that.

@WhiskeySandwich gracias

@ZackB it definitely feels good to have it done. Hope you get yours done too and move on to the next one.

Before:

After:

This tattoo was done ten years ago by someone who didn't know wtf they were doing. For all of those years it hid under my hair until recently when I began tattooing the rest of my head. One of the artists in the shop saw the pitiful snake during a session and said he could fix and finish it. Today meant a lot to me as it has now finally been completed after so much time. I hated that tattoo for so long and now I am overjoyed.

With that said, it fucking hurt so GD badly. Holy moly for real 10/10 pain from behind the ear to the back of the head. Horrible, horrible pain. The face area was not so bad believe it or not. But back of the head by the brain stem was brutal torture. I highly recommend staying far away from this area unless you are a tattoo obsessed freak like yours truly.

I'm happy with how these photos turned out this morning. Taking them when the sun was peeking out from behind the clouds. I love how we can see further into the forest on the property this time of year.

Paired with the 19oz indigo/grey Type 1.

@Matt for real

SBG Tattoo? Sure he tattooed it black, and not super black fades to gray? Careful washing your arm so you don't get marbling or creases.

Hahaha
