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

[Oaktavia]

@goosehd oooo yes, yes sirrrr

[goosehd]

@Oaktavia I thought that would grab your attention. I was telling G, that because of you, I’m looking at the slubby II…

There goes my spending hiatus

[Tago Mago]

@goosehd the shitty thing is - if you're late to the game you have so much catch-up to do, which is almost impossible because every season has fantastic seasonal stuff.

[Mister_Brue]

@Tago-Mago Tell me about it…

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago …most days I feel like Sisyphus. Ahead of the game only to find myself back down at the bottom again.

[Tago Mago]

To quote Mike Patton - „from the bottom it looks like a steep incline, from the top another downhill slope of mine, but I know the equilibrium’s there“

[goosehd]

@Tago-Mago …but just like Stoichiometry equations, there is a lot of math and a few headaches in the in between to finding that equilibrium.

[Oaktavia]

@goosehd the slubby type II is a nice midweight, feels great and easy to wear. Stubborn at first, rewarding later.

[goosehd]

@Oaktavia The 16oz slubby jeans in the summer are fantastic…great 3 season denim (for me).

@goosehd definitely and it would be rad to see a black/brown iteration or indigo/black.

Now you’re talking…

[Boit]

I’d pass on a slubby type ii, but will be gutted if ss25 don’t have some slubby easy jorts.

@Boit sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but

I know there were issues with sewing buttonholes but I nevertheless would love to see a comeback of a denim work shirt with buttonholes (Sorry don't like the snaps on work shirts).

Total opposite for me. I love my 12 ounce workshirt with snaps. Gets more wear than any of my shirts.

[Boit]

I think it makes sense to do < 12 oz -> button, >= 12 oz -> snap.

[Boit]

@Chap IIRC, the 10oz denim WS doesnt have button-hole problem. Maybe the smaller buttons are being phased out anyway, and maybe this is a non-issue regardless of denim weight/weave?

[Boit]

@Alex ss26. Also, feel free to reach out if you demo the idea in size L @JoshC currently has my submission in for repairs.

[Giles]

The issue is not the size of the buttons. The button hole sewing machine's pitch is exactly the same pitch as most of our shirting denim, so if the needle goes into the `"gap" made where the warp and weft intercept, the stitch gets no purchase and will pull the button hole constructional thread out of the denim...
