nate001 He's still in the honeymoon phase, wait until his 170 has gained 30lbs and quit giving head, then ask again!

nate001 He's still in the honeymoon phase, wait until his 170 has gained 30lbs and quit giving head, then ask again! What's your 170 status BTW? Getting one from self edge? Waiting for the western? Of all people, I can't believe you're gonna sit this one out.

IH makes so many kick ass shirts of different types that it's not fair to pick one over the other because it's not apples to apples. These are completely different feel to a UHF so you can't compare them to that. all I can say is that it's a bad ass shirt and I love it.

Ickes, your pictures captured the color well I'm guessing?
I'm thinking this is a shirt that I will like more once it wears in and ages a bit. Giles said he ordered double the amount for the westerns this fall so I have time to think. That red, black and cream pattern they have coming later this years looks awesome though.

IMO my natural light pics captured the colors perfectly. That red/black/cream does look awesome and I think it's going to be another fast seller. IIRC that fabric is an UHF fabric though so different animal that the 170.

Yup, it's a UHF. It's one of those patterns I won't even have to think about before buying, that's how much I liked it.
I haven't seen a pattern I've liked that much since the 107 (I'll find one someday) and the 126-PB, which is safe in the closet at the moment.
Took me a little while to get over the sticker shock, but you just need that first piece. I'm already waiting on a restock of the XHS, the upcoming red, black and cream and possibly a 170.

Keep an eye out on Grailed and the IHUK forums. I bought a black 107 from SE when they first dropped but I went with an XXL and it was just a bit too big for me. Fortunately since that time I've sold it and found both a black and red 107 on the second hand market. It took a good 1-2 years to find them lol...but eventually I did and if you find a used on jump fast cause they still go quick even on the used market. The green one not so much. What's the XHS?

Yeah I check eBay grailed and the forum multiple times a day. Someone had a green large 107 but I need the XL-XXL depending on measurements. I'm waiting on the 777 extra heavy selvedge (XHS) to restock later this year. It's the 25 oz denim. Apparently they soften to sweat pant level softness and are fairly warm, would be great for the fall and winter here. I don't like to wear jackets so I wear heavier jeans and a warmer shirt/vest system. Seems no one here has messed with their alpaca vests, but I've thought of that piece as well. I bet it's awesome.

ah, the 25oz, gotcha. Yeah I don't know if I'm ever going to venture to the 25oz but hell, who knows, never say never. but yeah I've read the same thing about it that it really softens up over time but can be a beast in the beginning. Great fades on that fabric too.

If you like the warm shirt/vest system, I don't think you could beat the IH deck vest. I love my N1, but I do like the wool sleeves mine has.

I'm in Phx and when it hits 50's at night (which it still is now, even still hitting mid to high 40's some nights) I'm reaching for my 18-21oz Iron Hearts. Just the other day I was in my 18oz Iron Hearts and I was chilly, I was like damn I need my 19's or 21's. Granted the 18's are an low tension weave. Even though the 19oz left hand twills are only one ounce more they are considerably warmer.

Wore the 18's today. Pretty sweet. The waffle shirt is pretty dope. I have certainly never seen anything like it. Could use a wash to shrink it up (XL); man their WS neck sizes are pretty massive compared to the the westerns.

prolly to hard to find any ihsh-130 in XL in the blue/black on rakuten huh? I found a ihsh-127 in purple in XL which im debating on, but would instacop something in a black/blue if anyone has leads on one for rakuten pricing.

There are greys though, but no luck on the blue.

The green too for that matter, but the purple cannot be improved apon--it's pure tits

But, this may have been before it was announced that RB wouldnt be selling IH. my guess is everyone ran out and bought some IH goods before that happened. I have the grey/black 130 and love it. Very warm

First Rodeo Bros package looks set to land tomorrow.
I've been wearing my 142 almost all weekend, I can hardly take it off.
Can someone fill me in as to why it looks like the IHSH-76 and IHSH-99 will not be restocked? I was considering them before I realized they were such hot ticket items!

The denim for both is being retired. But Giles mentioned plans for an 18 oz over dyed version possibly to replace the 99 recently.

Laying in bed this morning, I had to swoop on the 140 (last in my size on IHUK) because I was worried it too would be gone soon! i saw some fade pics on the 76 on the IH forum that about made me tremble...hoping I can achieve a similar effect with the 140.

Deep thoughts with Disheveled... While wearing my Alpaca lined N-1 with my UHF the other day I stopped and wondered: "do Chilean Alpaca munch wild Aspero Cotton? Full effing circle, Man... Lol--sorry I can't help myself
