I vote IH for you Ickes, though I'm not sure if I can swing 300 bucks! Man, I'm an denim weakling, but G and LD have spoiled me for good. Thank you kind sir. I thought I was fine with G as well before I tried Iron Heart jeans, but then I tasted it...and now the downward spiral begins. I know the price tag is high and I NEVER thought I would consider spending that much money on a pair of jeans but they are honestly worth every penny. If I knew 2 years ago what I know now and I could start all over again, I would buy maybe three or four pairs of Iron Hearts, pick up a few of the Gustin unique pairs (some browns, indigoxpersimmon, etc...) and be done with my collection. Well, in theory anyways  . That being said, I'm still not sold on IH shirts being worth the money they charge. I will probably pick up one more to try down the road at a Rakuten price but the shirts haven't impressed me like the jeans have. |

Bullet proof. Importantly, they are not much more expensive than Gustin's workshirts, which are not even close quality-wise. I wore the IHSH-07 and was thinking how great it is. |

Ah, I should clarify my previous statement. Iron Heart shirts at Rakuten prices are ABSOLUTELY worth every penny, I STRONGLY CONCUR. I was referring to the shirts at non-Japanese prices as I feel that the Iron Heart jeans are even actually worth the SelfEdge and Iron Heart UK prices, I really do. Of course I will always check Rakuten first for any Iron Heart pairs that I may want but if they don't have them I would have no problem paying the marked up non-Japanese prices for a pair that I really wanted. For the shirts I am not sure I can say the same right now, but I will be purchasing another IH shirt in the future to draw a better conclusion. |

Yeah, I'm with you there. As much as I love my IH shirts, I'm not sure I could drop $400 (CDN) + for one of them.
Need to get a pair of IH denim...

I put in a vote for the 633s as well, just for you guys. Even though I have no idea about any of those jeans. LOL!

I'd rather the PBJ win, but gave the 633s my top vote since I know the PBJ ain't gonna catch up.

What size is your IHSH-07? What size do you wear in Gustin or TS? Wanting to order one on Rakuten and can't decide between small and medium. |

I usually wear a large in IH shirts.
Hard to say with Gustin. I have a Medium (Classic) that feels ever-so-slightly small in the chest but fine in the waist. I have a couple of Large (Classic) that feel good in the chest but like a tent in the waist and a bit wide in the shoulders.
Not sure that helps...

I voted for the IH's too Ickes - for you! I saw the IH 777's on reddit and they're 21 Oz with a fit that I think will work for me - uh oh!

I have a feeling that even the discounted price will be too rich for my blood, but I did my civic duty and voted nonetheless. Because everyone deserves a pair of kakishibu weft jeans! I was kidding about this, by the way. I voted for the IH because I'm not going to buy any of those jeans anyway. You're welcome. |

Looks like N&F is going to win. Damn it. I think I would choose any of the others over that one.
Oh well.

Well it looks like N and F has won the vote. Thanks to all who fought the good fight and put in a vote for the Iron Hearts. I'll take this down in a few days after I'm done mourning our loss.

I don't know how familiar you guys are with massdrop but its not uncommon for them to contact the top few voted companies, as some aren't open to group buys. I wouldn't lose hope yet.
