Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
-
I wasn't going to chime in on this T shirt debate, but a couple of comments echo my own experience. I've bought various iterations of printed IH T's for the last 5 years, and love the heavyweight fabric, but have noticed that the changes in fit have made them less suitable for me, and it's principally the tight neck and lack of taper that makes them wear a bit oddly on me. I've bought 6 RMC T's, (the basic 2 pack undershirts), and love the fit, but would love it more if IH could do something in a similar vein.

I remember the first ever sample of the IHD-01 was made with the old 18oz, but the factory couldn't make a production run. Maybe they can now?

The more I see these engineers pant releases, the more I want one….. Only in a non-wabash.

I would love to see a corduroy, sherpa lined Type I jacket (without a buckle). You basically only see type IIIs like this but I think a type 1 (maybe w/ hidden pockets, almost like Visvim - very unlikely, I know) would be awesome.

Actually, seeing the below pic of a leather type I makes me want an OD denim version (or just black).

Awesome news! Might finally find my dream type I! If it's coming with a cinch, would you/is it possible to have some of them sewn up without it? From what I've seen, this doesn't really require a significant pattern change (I may be very wrong, though!).

My only concern with the IH t's I've tried is they are much too bulky and not really a "fitted" fit, especially in the sleeves. I'm fine with the 6.5oz part, although I'd be fine with lighter weight as well (I never thought I'd be all that interested in a 14oz denim from Iron Heart but I'm LOVING my new 14oz 666's). But to function as an undershirt, it should be more of a slim, fitted cut, especially in the sleeves.
Seconding this.
I'm aware that as a really skinny build, I'm in the minority of IH wearers, but this is a consistent issue I've had with looking at pretty much any IH shirting–I have slightly broad shoulders for my size, but otherwise need a pretty severe taper from the shoulders down to properly fit just about anything (only "shirting" I own is the IHTB-01 and even that needed a tuck-in from the pits down so I don't give off that shirt-mannequin appearance).
On the bright side, the shirting money can go towards another pair of jeans--it's all in how you view it, I guess.

I would never steer anyone away from IronHeart, but you sound like you could be a model for FlatHead.

The way I see it, any brand that has the Giles stamp of approval is worth checking out, so maybe I will.
On that note, even if they aren't in my size, the loopwheels in the gray fabric look amazing. I wonder who in here would take a long-sleeve/henley from fabric like that…
(EDIT: I know there are gray henleys/thermals, but not quite the same gray color.)

Hard to argue with a Flat Head shirt and Iron Heart jeans combo for sure.
