  1. Really interesting in that latest Flat Head flannel (grey/black ageism), but I've never owned Flat Head. I remember trying them on in store once and everything was too small but the measurements look like a 40 would work. Has their flannels gotten bigger?  My other Ultra Heavy Flannels from Iron Heart are XL. Should I go 42 to be on the safe side... also to help with any shrinking?

  2. I've posted these before in other areas of the forum, but I think it's a good look. I just wish I could wear my jacket more often so I could break it in. I think the two pictures are over a year apart... maybe two years.

  3. New 3Sixteen clothes look amazing! I especially love the Aqua Diamond Plaid but wish the one pocket was normal. That's the only thing preventing me from spending the cash right now. Small thing to complain about, I know, but I got to love every bit of it if I'm spending Â£170 on a shirt.

    The FW15 collection from 3sixteen continued to arrive this week. 
     
    The popular work shirt appears in a mid-weight Japanese plaid fabric. The Aqua Diamond Plaid features a diamond weave with subtle aqua tones. The shirt has the signature cross-cut back design, a double-needle chain-stitch runoff and enamel coated  metal fish-eye buttons which will age with wear.
     
    The Salt and Pepper Chambray Work Shirt is made from 100% cotton selvedge chambray woven in Okayama, Japan.
    Details include  double needle chainstitch run-offs and Corozo nut fish-eye buttons.
     
    We have also re-stocked the Double Black Selvedge Trucker Jackets.

  4. I haven't worn these as much as I'd like to but I put them on every chance I get... mostly weekends and after work (sitting around the apartment). I like the color and weight a lot but I'm not super into the fit. I may try to shrink them a bit more and probably get them shortened an inch when I get my first repair done. Also, I'll update my competition page sometime in the week with a couple more photos... but for now, here's this. I tried to color correct the red shirt as it looks blown out to me. I have no idea what I'm doing in lightroom.

  5. My random opinion here… I like IH for the weight and quality... would I buy their jeans at a lower weight? Maybe? It's tough because although I know IH for their quality, I really buy them for their heavyweight uniqueness... I honestly haven't found a fit that I would say is perfect for me yet (Or I haven't tried it on at least) so that would be the first obstacle for me to overcome before I buy a lightweight pair of jeans from IH before say 3Sixteen or any other lightweight brand.  

     

    sidenote: I own IHxB01 (not bad but I wished the leg opening was smaller. I'm currently wearing DWCxUHR (same issue except this pair seems worse in the legs). I've tried on the 301S and it was perfect in the legs but too big up top. I'm a little concerned I won't find the right pair from IH after reading this post a while back http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=7268.msg396161#msg396161 (edit: his post because I believe I may be the same body type as this guy)

  6. Nice stuff @Max Power. 

     

    I posted this on DWC and IH forums yesterday. I use SuFu the most so I figured I should post here. 

     

    Here I'm wearing my SExIH22 Type III and my new DWCxUHR. Jacket has been around for a year now but doesn't get worn a lot. Jeans are coming in nicely tho.

  7. Since this is here and I was just thinking about this the other day... what does everyone think of Biz Stain detergent? I heard about it, weirdly enough, on a podcast and they mentioned that it had enzymes that ate stains rather than a detergent that lift them away? Anyways, it was briefly mentioned and I had never heard of it before but immediately thought about how that would work on denim. Anyone have any clue about the stuff or experience?

  8. Here's a pic from the Inspiration LA after party at RRL.

    Top guy on the right sold me my first pair of Rogue Territory at his store General Quarters in LA about a month ago. I was just checking it out after visiting Self Edge and dude was so cool that I decided to finally jump and buy some Officer Khakis. Definitely worth the purchase but I recommend everyone check his store out if you're in the area. 

  9. The only PBJ's I have are the xx-012's... I'm not sure if they're the only ones like this but it irritates me when the belt comes above the pant line. (attached photo shows what I'm talking about)

    It reminds me of when girls wear high wasted thongs that show above their pants. I know it's silly to compare the two but it always comes to mind. 

     

    Here's a picture of my belt warping:

  10. anyone else feel like their PBJ's could've used another belt loop or two? My leather belt is starting to warp funny because there is only one loop in the back. I was looking at my other jeans and a new pair of 3sixteens I want to buy and they definitely have more. I kind of am thinking I want to add some to my pair.

  11. Our site shows the top three or four closest fits to the jean measurements you put in, what the second or third choice?

    1. ST-44x (khaki)

    2. ST-120 x (my favorite but he doesn't like super dark)

    3. 634-XHS 20oz

    4. ST-220x (black)

     

    Now that I've realized I can select 32-36, my results look better/closer.

  12. I'm not sure this is the spot to ask this... BUT, I just tried the jean finder on the updated website and I added the measurements from a size 32 APC new standards pair. I have never worn or owned a pair but the fit looks real nice on lots of people and my buddy wont wear anything else because he likes the fit so much....

     

    Basically, my question is, "why isn't there more similar denim available on your site but from a better brand?" It would be great if I could show my friend and maybe even try the denim out myself. Is there a rule against copying other brand measurements? btw, the closest pair was 634-XHS 25OZ DENIM but I don't think I could get him in 25oz at this point of summer.
