The ship John collab was brass wasn’t it? I don’t think they used good in that collaboration

@Mister_Brue thank you!

@Mister_Brue is this yours?

@Kasi

Do you have a picture of the version 3? That’s the one I’m remembering

Hello all,

I need some assistance from your collective memories… I am vaguely remembering a two-tone gold and silver model 10 bracelet. Is this a false memory or was there actually one of these in the past? I can’t seem to find any pictures of it online.

If there was indeed one of these, do any of you have links to pictures of it? Or know if anywhere has one of these left in stock (doubtful).

Thanks!

Does anyone know why Goodart is restricting the supply of the model 10 bracelet?

The demand seems to be high for this bracelet but good art doesn't seem to want to produce it anymore. It's been sold out for so long and I cannot figure out why.

Thoughts?

@AdamJ

Thank you for the info on switching groups! It's odd that some people see over 200 posts on my profile, while I and others only see 89. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong spot....

Hi All,

Quick question - I just started using this new forum recently, and I have been noticing that I am classified as "raw and unwashed". I used to have hundreds of posts on the old platform, and now my profile states that I have 88....

Anyone know why this is the case?

Thanks

First post in the new forum!

Do they make them in solid gold?

Given that this has a size "small" associated with it, does that imply that good art will be coming out with a large fish pendant?

Is it lined?

bump, wondering if there is anything else out there!

Thank you all for the suggestions thus far

Hey everyone,

I am in the market for an incredibly heavy cotton flannel.

I have owned the iron heart UHF, and absolutely love them. But I was wondering if any other companies make anything heavier than the UHF.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

I have the RMC USN deck jacket in olive and it is a terrific garment. It is extremely warm and one of my favorite pieces of outerwear.

If I were to buy a deck jacket today, I would go IH, only because my style has shifted a little bit away from overt militaria. Even though I haven't seen one in the flesh, my prior experiences with IH and IH outerwear and the testimonies in this forum leave no doubt as to the quality and robustness of the IH version.

I think it comes down to which design you prefer.

If you get RMC, I was surprised that for me this Japanese garment was true to size and a 40 (my real size) was a perfect fit.

If you find wool itchy, I think the RMC is pure alpaca and not a wool/alpaca blend, so that would be a better choice in that scenario.

I have no doubts about the quality of the IH jacket. Full disclosure, IH is my favorite clothing brand and I find their garments to be incredibly well made.

I guess I am more concerned with the construction quality and material choices used for the Real Mccoys version. Do you think it is very similar in terms of build quality, overall material costs, fabric weights, etc..?

Hi Everyone,

I am in the market for a deck jacket - and I am split between the following two items.

Can anyone comment on the quality of these two items? I am sure they are both great, but I was just wondering if one might be superior to the other. Both are N-1s and seem to follow very similar construction patterns.

Thanks!

Hi Everyone,

The only raw denim cut that I find truly works for my build is the 3sixteen CT.

Is there an analogous fit sold by iron heart?

I would love to pick up a pair of iron hearts that are roomy in the seat with a sharp taper below the knee.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thank you!

@Nkwkfld:

My maternal grandfather was a football coach in Minnesota in the 50’s and worked with a couple guys who had these fancy class rings from their university. My grandfather hadn’t attended university but still wanted a ring so he saved up and bought diamonds one at a time, then had them set into a silver ring that I’ve inherited. The saving up idea is cool because one day it might get passed down and mean something.

Awesome!

You'll probably be able to pass that down again at some point

Thank you for sharing
