Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?

Herringbone shirt, contrast stitching with double pockets…

Had mentioned before that H was considering dying the 717 black and maybe other colors.  Think this will still happen?  Any idea if this would be a Spring thing?
Cheers in advance,

[Giles]

I want to do a 717 in black.  It was not on the SS17 schedule (though a new beige version is).  I have agreed with H, that I will ask retailers if they want the black version when I ask for their SS17 orders.  If I get enough orders, we will go ahead.  After initialling turning his nose up at the idea, H says that we may take a few too…..

Will they be a new black chino fabric or simply dunk them in OD?

Not sure the chino fabric could even stand the hot dye…

We have woven the new cotton selvedge chino fabric with polyester threads for the selvedge ID.  The fabric itself is woven in a slightly off white colour.  We can then use this base fabric and dye it any colour we want, whilst retaining the selvedge ID.

We just dyed the base fabric khaki.

@Giles - that's super cool. I had no idea that was even possible.  Sounds like a great business decision with limitless possibilities.

@Appfaff:

Yup…

Excellent, thanks G.  Here's to hoping you guys do the black in the same cut/shape as the 717.

The spring "other beige" – will that be same cut different hue?

Cheers-

Anything ever happen with that sample of a lined first zip jacket, G?

[Seul]

Black 717 sounds fucking awesome, G…

[Giles]

For the time being other colours in the selvedge chinos will be the 717.

Which sample?

[superfuzz]

I think it was on H's blog. A brown canvas first zip with blanket lining.

I have not seen it yet, maybe it's a FW17 candidate.  But as an FYI, H and I agreed in Japan in October that in the SS and FW17 collections, we released far too much variety.  Expect smaller seasonal collections going forward…

Thank you! My bank account has never been happier!!!!!

^ Interesting. I'd noticed this FW had an intimidating array of gear. Especially regarding shirting. It certainly tested my economic muscle and prioritising skills. A little less brilliant gear in the future would be nice [emoji38]

That's the one! Make that jacket happen. It is a total classic.

@Giles will these be a non-fading black similar to the superblack denim? If so, this just made my day. I can't find a pair of black chinos that don't fade to some shitty purplish-brown color with a few months' wear.

Chocolate brown 714's, and more 716 colors!!!
