Here is the short story of buying the IHSW-23 from denimhead to and @Black Orchid .

My eleven year old son asked me to buy a hoodie for him.
At this time Barcley offered two beautiful vintage zipped ones on his sale thread.
When I showed them to him, he dislikes the Zip and pointed out, that he is saving for a new bike.
A sport he likes a lot.

Told him, that the seller was a former BMX-rider and a retired jet navigator.
We watched some videos from the Mad Red Tour together and he was hooked.
At this time, Jules offered here IHSW-23 and it was love at first sight for my son. (Black and no zipper, a no brainer for him).

At this point it comes to the topic of this thread:
@neph93:

A recurring theme around this forum is wives, husbands and partners, children or parents stealing our clothes, or alternatively, having Iron Heart pushed upon them reluctantly or otherwise. Is this wise? Are we educating and raising our loved ones to appreciate quality, or are we just projecting our expensive addictions onto them? 

Normally 80% of my sons wardrobe is second hand from family and friends.
We were talking a lot what he and his peer group likes and what he is willing to spend from his own money.
In the end, we decided to split the costs and the hoodie goes back to me when he’s outgrown.

Never thought the following could happen:

We can talk about fabrics, the place of production and how to wash…

After showing him some sketches from Haraki, he is drawing his own line at the moment.

Thanks @neph93 for bringing this thread alive!

Took our little dude for a long walk to visit his new school that he is starting tomorrow due to both parents being at work. If I could get IH in his size he would love it. On the weekend he chooses what outfit I should wear… Today he chose this for me to wear... Classes and cap included!
