@Shoreman:
Do the guys who who dump all over IHUK on "Selvedge and Style forum" still post here? I'm curious, because they make reference to a lot of the information posted in these pages…
They want to have a cluster fuck, that's fine by me. What is not fine (by me), is that I went out of my way to explain Iron Heart and the way we work in an open, transparent and honest manner on their forum and I may as well have chewed my own testicles off, for all the good it seems to have done…..
They want me to do another interview? I'm sharpening up some very pox ridden stakes.....
In my paradigm, the last thing you do is shit on a person who has done you a favour. It's simply good manners....
I believe you have taken @Shoreman statement at face value.
Some members love Iron Heart, some like them, and some don't like them. Nothing more.
To even say "members who dump all over IHUK" is hyperbole.
I would say most members on our forum who were not into Iron Heart have now wanted to check them out because of all the great reviews from other members. We have many who did not like the Iron Heart concept at all. There are simply many people who don't spend that kind of money on clothes.
That is until they purchased an IH garment and then began raving. Some could even be called fanboys.
Many are now loving Iron Heart that didn't and talking about them turning more members onto iron Heart.
It is win win.
I don't read every post and of course there are a few who don't see the value as I mentioned and state their opinions. We don't moderate them unless they somehow get out of hand. It is their opinion.
It is not fair to take the opinions of a few members without considering the rest of the forum when passing judgement.
We are not a brand specific forum. We discuss many brands with varying opinions from members.
All you have to do is read the forum to see there is really only one brand that is really discussed with much dismay. The reason being they haven't delivered the goods. Literally.
I would never want our forum to be looked at on a whole as hating on any brand unless it really deserved it.
I say all this as I am wearing my IHXB01XRAW jeans.
Peace!
