I am so tempted by the Indigofera gunpowder jeans. I just cant decide if I want to go with the straight or slim fit. They look so nice, and the gunpowder shirts. I just don't know if I want to do international travel with something that's dyed with "gunpowder". Am I over-thinking it? lol, I think you might be overthinking but hell..you never know in today's world.

What was your rationale for selling it from the beginning? I ask, to learn from your misteps, as I think about how to thin my heard.

Basically I was looking to thin the heard and trying to figure out which ones would be the sacrificial lambs. My rationale was that to the best of my knowledge all of my IH flannels will never be made again other than the 127s. I figured if I sell them and I can always pick them up again when they are released again if I want, which they are now as we all know. So I threw up the red and green for sale and the green went quick. Red is still available

It's very "peacock", I'll agree to that.

I love IH & Freewheeler. My other fave brand is indigofera. Sensational range & quality. Small to HUGE sizing (check their fitting guides; they size large). I have 5 of their shirts & fully recommend this brand. Maybe you should consider eyeballing their gear. Great quality & cuts. Thats cool but where do they hide the sizing charts on their site? northcoast , they list all of their retailers on their site - the retailers have the sizing charts. Here's the US list of outlets: Standard and Strange (Oakland, CA) Too Strong USA (Tucson, AZ) Cedar & Hyde (Boulder, CO) AB FITS (San Francisco, CA) North Menswear (Laguna Beach, CA)

Am I over-thinking it? lol, I think you might be overthinking but hell..you never know in today's world. lol!!! But, yeah, their gunpowder jeans & tops are truly ace, imo. Leather and suede shirts are also sensational - they would age so brilliantly as the years rolled.

Purple 127 is a stunner! Was very ambivalent but damn. No wonder the ombre was so well received. Even a friend gave it props over my other IH shirts. Just plain works with dark indigo jeans. One of my favorite IH shirts for sure. Never would have thought. I don't think the green pops that/too much. Maybe I have deficits who knows. The red to me is more intrusive. Debating on selling red.

I don't think the green is loud or pops that much at all either and I agree that if anything the red is more intrusive. I also share your sentiments regarding the purple. I wasn't expexting a whole lot with my purple Ombre but it's one of my favorite IH shirts now that I have it hand. This is also the first purple shirt I've owned.

Purple is growing on me, but I don't think I can do it. I don't own anything purple, and I don't think it'll look good on me. But this 2000 yen coupon from PayPal is making it a decision worth considering. Maybe buy an extra small for the SO?

Purple isn't that bad... Peacock-y, but not bad..... I look at it day to day now, and it's growing on me. It might be a 2 times per year wearer tho.....

Do it fellas. The purple blends with the black lending itself some swaggy sophistication:
FYI: RB sent me a traditional release email with the 159 new release (out of L, XL, and XXXL), however, the link is broken and the shirt isn't on their site.

Totally agree. Again, IMO the purple black is not peacocky at all. Deep purple that blends to the black and looks great with stealth black jeans. I'm referring to the Ombre but I'm sure the buffalo is the same

The Barney hombre is much cooler than the Barney lumberjack, for all that my opinion is worth.

Well, I've actually been rocking the same stuff solid for about 5months now at least, due to Okinawa weather, and now due to my household shipment not making it in yet. But, once that stuff does arrive, expect a flash sale, guys. I have a lot less space for clothing storage here, so I will downsize

The Ombré would/does tone down the purple. myself, I only see a need (or want) for one UHF (so I got the the blue one). I'd like to see these patterns and colors now made up in a mid wieght shirt.

Got my red x black 127, and the 159. The 159 is as nice as I imagined it was going to be. I am done with Iron Heart shirt purchases forever. Mind sharing your thoughts on the 159 XL measurements? RB keeps emailing me to check out the measurement chart on the 137 xxl as "they're similar."...in so many words:) Funny as I only asked once for the XL 159. Edit: Better yet, I know you got two. Hook a brother up. Give $12 over:) haha
