@Crease Thanks for clarifying that. I’ve got the 777 jeans as well. I find them a bit more comfortable to wear than the 555 cut. Nice and roomy in the thighs.

@Crease Great shirt What model are those denims?

@Matt I’ve now got 3 Iron Heart shirts and this is the one I like best.

@T4920 Thanks

@Heavy_blue Thanks!

Just received the shirt. A great fit and thanks to Iron Heart for the help received on the sizing. A medium fits me well. Just for reference to other members I’m 5 foot 9 and around 11 stone. Not the greatest photo but it’s a perfect fit. (First purchase for a while for various reasons but hope to get some more soon)

Just ordered a medium, hoping it fits ok!

Is there an approximate timeframe these may be back in stock?

Purchased this last week. A great black Type 3 which I can highly recommend. It’s such a great jacket and fit that it’s the best Iron Heart product I own.

Great stuff.

Excellent jeans. Just received a pair today and they fit really well. I like the fact they’ve been one washed. Just noticed there’s a ‘no restocks of this product’ notice on the shop. I’m hoping there’ll be a similar new product coming out?

Great jeans with the new Lot number  Double cuffed these with a 2 inch cuff. 

Beautiful shirt. I couldn’t afford to purchase any of the Autumn Winter shirts this year but they all looked great. Hopefully I can budget for a couple of shirts in 2021 as it looks like they all sold out in my size.

@NorvilleRogers:

This isn’t my first purchase, but it is my first post…here goes
I flippin’ love this shirt.
I love it on my shoulders. I love it on the hanger. I love the cut, the cloth, the buttons, the sheer engineered brilliance.
I think, in its own way, it loves me back.
And for some reason, when I wear it, I want to visit Peru.
Mahalo!

Have a good New Year

Thanks, I’ll probably try a regular double cuff so maybe 33 inches is the way to go.

I was wondering if someone could give advice on cuffing these? I’m a 29 inch inside leg and generally haven’t cuffed most of the jeans I have. I’m planning on getting a double cuff of approximately 2 inches. Is it best to to go for a 32 or 33 inch inside leg?

A beautiful jacket. Wish there were more mediums in stock as I’d have picked up one in January.

There’s various clothes sprays on the market. Day 2 do a denim version which is good for denims. Dettol have a clothes spray which it markets as killing 99% of bacteria. I’ve only used them on denims every few months and they certainly freshen them up. May be worth trying on shirts though they’ll need a wash after several wears. Another option is a cold water gentle wool wash with a liquid detergent in a machine or hand wash as hot water washes definitely damage fabrics.

Could someone help me find out a cure to my problem so that I can enjoy wearing my IH shirts longer before I wash them? The problem is armpit sweat and the obnoxious smell it throws out. I tried wearing an inner T-Shirt, the problem still persists. I started to use a deodorant, but later on the shirt armpit smells deodorant and I hate that. If I can find a solution such that I can get 6 to 8 full days of wear / wash cycle, it would be ideal. Right now I throw it in the washing machine after 2 or 3 wears.

This shirt together with the Wabash are my favorites.

Hi everyone, hope you’re all well and staying safe. I have a question regarding my 555-01s and thought this would be the place to tap into the best knowledge and experience. I’ve lost 20kg/3 stone over the past year and as a result my jeans are not quite fitting me as they used to. Short of putting all the weight back on, does anyone have any suggestions about maybe getting the jeans to shrink down a little? I assume they wouldn’t shrink down beyond their original measurements even with a hot machine wash? I know I might not have much of a chance, but thought it best to check with iron heart scholars first rather than just going for it. Thank you in advance

One option is to sell them online. Ive got a few pairs of 555-01 jeans and even though my weight’s fairly stable I think I’ll go from a waist size of 31 to 32. I’ve got the 32 tag size in the 25oz version and although the 31 tag size fits my waist fine and they’re not uncomfortable I prefer the slightly looser fit of the 32 in the knees and thighs especially if I’m out walking.

I wouldn’t recommend it in really cold weather especially in high winds. It’s loose around the waist area which isn’t exactly ideal for a Canadian winter. I’m not really a fan of having layers under a jacket but if you’re happy doing that then go for it.
