RE: Why so many weights?
All feel different and have very different Characteristics. The 16oz slb is the most breathable. The 19 is a left hand twill and unsanforized. Its stiffer and more rigit with great fade pottential. The 14 oz is a nice all year weight. Then you have the 25oz heavy but softens up beautifully with wear and fades very nicely. You have the 18 with vintage fades, the 17oz with natural indigo. They all feel different, fade different so at the end of the day it is a matter of preference and variety.

RE: Lifter problems
An easy test of mobility is the overhead squat. Load is not important. If you can overhead squat an empty bar with full depth, ample thoracic extension and heels on the ground you are generally in good shape. It will expose limitations at the upper back, hips and ankle.

RE: IH-526L - 19oz Left-Hand Twill Selvedge Denim Type III - Indigo
My experience was different. I was expecting the 25oz 634 to be difficult to wear in the beginning and alot of forum members were having a hard time button them up. Never for me. They felt pretty comfy by day 2. My 634 leftie v2 still gives me hard time to button the top button after 2 years of wear. Its interesting how we all have our own personal experiences.

RE: Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
Would like to see the 19oz leftie in an Ib version or double indigo. Just one cut preferably 634. I think they would be rad as hell.

Sizing down definitely fixes it. It happens to me also when the waist is slightly big and inhave to crank the belt. That makes it even worse.

RE: Lifter problems
@flannel slut. Don't get too worried about butt wink unless is severe. A little butt wink its definitely not the end of the world. The fitness community gets rapped up into too many things that are not as important as they make them seem. A small amount of butt wink is very acceptable in all serious weithlifting circles. If the butt wink happens at the very bottom of the squat, just stop right above and slowly keep enforcing good positions. Also keep in mind that alot of people look good air squatting or squatting without a load, but once load is introduced the squat doesn't look the same anymore. I suggest that you use a moderate load as long as the butt wink is not severe and go from there. But wink although not desirable is way down on the list to be fixed than other more serious issues as a good morning squat for example and i see those very often.

RE: Lifter problems
The correct grip is whatever width you need to use to get the bar into your hip crease with you standing. So grab the bar and adjust the width of the grip till the bar is at your hip crease.

RE: Lifter problems
@goosehd . Did the bar started coming farward as you were decending into the squat?.
Make sure you use wide grip, snatch grip. With narrow grip are challenging even for people with good mobility. If you can squat decent without the bar above you, and by decent means torso up right as much as possible , hip crease below knee crease and heels in full contact with the floor, but the bar drifts farward when you overheard squat its a thoracic extension limitation. Upper back mobility is very important on overhead squat. -

RE: IHSH-295-IB - 14oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo/Black
Is it small as in tight? Or short in the front. I got mine 4xl which is my standard size and feels very similar to any other 4xl i have from IH.

RE: Lifter problems
We are all born with the same agility and flexibility. As we get older we live seating most of the time and we dont put our bodys in positions to maintain the flexibility we once had. Most people from mid 20's and up cannot squat properly. We loose hip and ankle mobility. Its fixable but takes time and consistency but is well worth it.
