Have you tried turning it off and on again?

RE: F/W 24 Top 3
@Matt said in F/W 24 Top 3:
I’ve got two shirts from this collection in my top 5 but I’m beginning to suspect I have…
too many shirts? 🫤
You do wonder sometimes where it will end. Alone, presumably, wearing a 21oz selvedge nappy, surrounded by $10,000 dollars worth of shirts.

RE: IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
^ great starting point for those, took me a while to realise 634 can work on a slim frame, wish I'd taken a chance on it sooner.
I've just got a stock notification in for these, time to come full circle with OG cut & denim.

RE: IHSH-293-OD - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black
I'm your height but 15kg lighter and my L is a reasonably trim fit in chest and shoulders. I'd say XL is the safer bet.

RE: IHJ-103-IND - 12oz Wabash Chore Jacket - Indigo
@themage I just got mine yesterday - I sized down to M from my usual L. It's a good fit, but fairly snug in the chest. I'll wear it exclusively open, so it will work for me, but have a good look at that P2P - it's the outlier measurement with this one, and I think the reason it's been slow to move. I'd say my M is a typical L in every other dimension.
My first chore jacket, and I love it - as Oaktavia says, it wears more like a blazer or sport coat than our usual short denim jackets, so nice for a different look, and you know it'll fade nicely.

RE: IH-6634-BRN - 14oz Heavy Corduroy Straight Cut Pants - Brown
I got these and the beige as the final indulgence prior to a spending freeze - and no buyer's remorse here, simply the nicest corduroy I've handled. I had them in mind as potentially good for work, but the very relaxed fit (on me anyway) and luxe fabric rules that out I think. Instead they're the ultimate weekend loungers, the thinking man's sweatpants. Softening up beautifully, if they're as hard wearing as people say it's really the ultimate trouser fabric. Hopefully one of the Japanese workshops step up with an alternative, a charcoal pair in 666 would be another must have.

It's 1am here, gotta get to bed. I'll come back in the morning and have a hard stare at the numbers on that last 4XL.

RE: IH-829-IND - 21oz Serge Work Pants - Indigo
They soften up very fast. My second workpants after the wabash, and I think it's my favourite cut - a strong but kinda neutral workwear look that would suit any age or body type. Love the simply adorned, straight back pockets, the small fabric patch, and the almost-slash pockets at the front that are that bit easier to access. Quintessential IH I think, and all the better that it's pretty unique to Iron Heart. My only concern (not one most here will share, admittedly) is that they'll fade a bit too aggressively - I won't hesitate to wash mine pretty often. I'd love a non- or slow-fade version for actual work, but I'll be in for the black anyway if they come back in my size!

RE: IHSH-399-ORA - 12oz Slubby Heavy Flannel Check Western Shirt - Orange
I woke at 3am from a flannel fever dream, pyjamas (non-IH) soaked with sweat & managed to order an XL before drifting back to sleep. I'm glad I did as they were gone by morning. I've never worked harder to get someone to take my A$500 for a shirt, but I'm confident this is my perfect flannel!

RE: IH-634S-SB - 21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut - Superblack Non-Fade
Anyone else who has these get quite a bit of shrink? I've lost a full inch in the inseam, which I didn't get with the OG 21oz. Unless I'm eating donuts in my sleep I'm pretty sure they've tightened up in the top block too. Is this a typical result of the superblack dyeing process in the vests and jackets? Careful washing, never seen a dryer etc etc.
I'll get another pair when they restock as I can get away with wearing them for work (and they're metal
) but I'll size up and add some length to the hemming.

RE: IH-816-GRY - Grey Whipcord Work Pants
I just waxed lyrical about the workpant cut in another thread. Wear them for a bit and you'll never go back to a slim leg. I'd love for these to come back, a dark grey would be nice too.

RE: IHSH-397-IND - 21oz Sashiko Work Shirt - Indigo
@pechelman Love my 380, but to me it's more a textured dobby than a real sashiko. I think this 21oz is closer to a proper (machine-made) sashiko of the kind that Pure Blue Japan etc specialise in. I passed on this one, but predicable second thoughts kicking in now

like an 80s Toyota
More a 70s Datsun vibe for me, but yeah, it's old skool

@Easystride no durability worries with this one, it's indestructible if you're not drywalling in it. Have fun with it!

RE: IHSH-293-OD - 18oz Vintage Selvedge Denim CPO Shirt - Indigo Overdyed Black
@Easystride medium sounds right. I'd like to be a fly on the wall when you first handle it. It's at the heavyweight end of the spectrum even for IH!
