Btw... thanks disheveled , I had moved on and decided I could live without the 162 until you went and started pictures. Depending on headwind I may have an olive xxl in hand by the end of the week. |

I don't want to live without the 162 but it's gone in my size. The pictures got me too! disheveled I see on the IH forum you have the 163 -- how does that compare in your opinion? Only one left in my size on IHUK... |

madmoses I'll give you my two cents on the 163 though, it's awesome. I have the olive and Charcoal and it's one of the more slimmer fitting work shirts Iron Heart makes.

163 is rad. Get it! Very different beast than the 162 shacket though, so kinda tough to compare. I went with large for both styles. If you have a specific piece of info/impression you're looking to garner deeper insight on, I'm happy to try and help just let me know what you want... madmoses |

I had hoped to wait for another coupon offer, and the USD/JPY to climb back over the 115 mark. But, things seem to be flying off of the shelves, at Rodeo Bros. So, I decided to grab a coveted item, before missing out. The IHV-02-BLK has been on my want list for well over a year. I couldn't put it off any longer. Had a XXXL yellow IHSH-138 been available, I would've grabbed one, as well.
Edit: Patiently waiting for Mihara's email. (twiddles thumbs)

I'm lucky not many people want the train conductor look so I can sit on it for a little longer

I'm lucky not many people want the train conductor look so I can sit on it for a little longer I find quite a few people like my 07. I was recently in a local shop that sells sporting goods, and carries a lot of work wear like Carhartt, Woolrich, etc, and the owner spotted my IH, and wanted to know where I got it from. He liked it a lot, but the local folks that work in the woods and such, wouldn't support the price of IH gear. I think the conductor look becomes front and center when you have a matching hat, lol |

I know Ben Davis is like a 3rd of the price but I rather have the IH piece so I can join the club finally |

My IH has been washed and dried multiple times, and its the same size as when I got it, and fits great. |

Man I really want to snag some cut and sewn but can't get over the prices. Are there any comps out there or this but another fruitless search for an equivalent for cheap?

Which cut and sewn pieces are you looking at Jdub6 Well they just so happened to restock almost all of them:) as they did not have XL in anything yesterday or day before. I was basically looking at everything (e.g., 1501 no XL we'll see, 1301, 1700, 1213, T-shirt-1610-IDK think ickes said they were dope). Also snagged the 18oz 666S-18. Just can't beat these at the price and especially the 19Oz lefties. |

got the 21OD and the 142 in today after work!!
Threw the 142 on and headed to Charlie's bar for some free Wednesday night pool. (and $6 pitchers)
They are both lovely and fit great, I can even button the top button on both. (hard to find for me)
And I got the follow up from RB on my order from today.
Woo!

Just can't beat these at the price and especially the 19Oz lefties. I was just going to come on here and say there are lots of good deals to be had on RB/Rakuten still. 1501: wouldn't hesitate, jump on it 1301: wouldn't hesitate, jump on it 1700: wouldn't hesitate, jump on it but be aware that these sewed up small so you would need to size up one 1213: if you like Henley's jump on them. I prefer the crew neck 1301 but these are still great. 1610: these are great as well, especially that grey one. Easily the coolest heather grey material I have seen for a T shirt. I would jump on these but be sure to check the fit guides on IHUK. They are pretty short in the length for my preference and I actually sold my white one and grey ones (one to disheveled actually) but I have tried again through IHUK on the last restock cause Lindsey found a long grey in my size. Fingers crossed, it will be arriving tomorrow with my 170 You really won't find equivalent cut and sewn pieces IMO except for their T shirts I would say. Jdub6 smart move on grabbing the 18oz 666. I highly recommend the 19oz lefty's too but be careful with sizing on those. The front and rear rises came in crazy low and I had to size up two in the waist on mine but they work. Awesome fabric though. |

Woo! what did you order today from RB? I ordered the 07, the 13 in black and the 127 in purple. I had a few others I thought about grabbing (and probably will now), but since I woke up and got on first thing and the green 127 had sold out in my size (super bummer greens my favorite) I was like rushing to get the purple 127 checked out cuz I need to get a sniff of this aspero stuff lol. I know, I know, "a whole...nother...level." lol I feel pretty confident in IH now that I have gotten something that the previous owner said they tried to shrink and it still fits me (142). |
