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

Brown whipcord is being sample in 816

Really hoping that whipcord comes to pass…with measurements like the original 816 rather than the later iterations.

Exàctly my thoughts…

If the sample comes out incorrectly (which they probably will, as we have not attempted trousers in whipcord before), then I will tweak for production…..

Awesome.

@Giles:

H has never mentioned kevlar and it does not float my boat enough to initiate…...sorry.....

I can totally understand this - I guess I just want a pair of jeans that will last me 40+years - I'm sure my IH's will last a good long time, but I walk a TON living in SF and having a dog so crotches tend to go long before the rest of the pair is ready to give up the ghost.

You want Kevlar to walk your dog in!? LOL

If you get crotch blowouts too soon you need to wash or soak your jeans more. Or get a looser fit.

2X2 miles a day with San Francisco hills … and I'm already rocking 634's and all the looser IH fits have rises that are to high. If I size up an more I'll need to get the waists tailored - the 38's I wear in IH are already fairly loose in the waist while just fitting in the thighs.

Nice, although I'm not familiar with whipcord.  What is brown whipcord?

[Giles]

Whipcord is the outer fabric we use for our Deck Coats, Jackets and Vests.  This year we are releasing a brown Deck Jacket.  I decided to use some of the fabric for pants….

Thank you @Giles.  Sounds interesting.

Excited to see what shade of brown these come in!  Would love a chocolate brown as opposed to the brown duck coloring.  Ever since I let my jungle cloth SCxSE collabs go, I have been dreaming of something similar.  Very excited to see these happen!

I agree with this, chocolate brown would be nice.

[Giles]

It's a dark chocolate brown….

Oh man… So good...

G, please let me know what to write on the form. IH-816 brown whipcord will do? I haven't had a pair of brown workpants since my old American-made Ben Davis 50/50s.  I wore those things into the ground.  I look forward to beating the crap out of a pair of these.  Brown pants look so good with so many shirts, IMO.  Thanks for pushing for these.

Form completed.  You may have mentioned this before already @Giles but what is the weight on this brown whipcord fabric?

[Giles]

About 10-11 I'd say.  If you have seen one of our deck jackets, coats or vests, it is the same fabric…..

Nice.  I'll check out some of the jackets, coats, and vests.

I'll be looking forward to these if/when they are made.
