Your videos convinced me, i stepped up and got the IHSH33T. the tonal stitching was the clincher. It's amazing. Everything i expected after your review and more. It screams quality and lifetime wear. The fit for me is perfect, just perfect. Thanks DevonReviewer, your presentations are exceptional.
yeah, the sizing sometimes defies logic. I think the reason one usually ends up going with an Iron Heart with a larger pit-to-pit sizing is because the waist size quite narrows a significant amount. The nice thing about that is that my range-of-motion is much wider and far more comfortable in the Iron Hearts, which i quite appreciate. The movement within the shirt is quite nice and the taper down to the waist becomes quite flattering. Big wins for me. And, oh yeah, had I mention how much I LOVE the arm lengths?! I know its intended for motorcyclists, which I am not, but at 6 foot 3 inches, I quite like being able to stretch my arms out without my sleeves climbing up my arms. Its quite nice.
Nice update. I’ve just purchased the black IH555-03 denims and think this would go well with those. I’ll hopefully pick up an Iron Heart shirt this month. I’ve noticed the Johnny Cash is back in stock and a couple of 5 oz chambray summer shirts are in stock. All three look excellent.
Would you mind doing a quick review of the Wabash Western shirt too? Would be very interesting to see how that has evolved. Other than that, I really highly appreciate your objective and calm reviews. thanks for your work!
I feel like the tighter something fits the better the honeycombs. What do you think? I noticed on 2 pairs of jeans. The tighter cut looks like it's going to fade much better
Holy crap! Just looked at the website and was blown away by the prices on those shirts. Who spends $400 on a shirt? That's insane. I'm sure they are awesome. That one looks incredible. But shit!!!
None of the IH stuff is cheap, its one of the more pricey brands for sure, but I have never been disappointed by their product... never heard negative reviews either... if it fits well and is to your style, consider it an investment ;)
Thanks for a great review! I am currently trying to decide between keeping the Large or the XL. The large fits really well. It can be comfortably buttoned and the sleeves hit at just the right spot on my long arms (I’m 6’2” and 165). The XL seems a little too large now but not huge. I’m wondering if you could share what your experience with shrinkage was? Could a great fitting large shirt keep its size if washed in cold water? Would you recommend sizing up to account for shrinkage? Thanks!!
Hi, thanks, just downloaded new software, it should be mp4 1920x1080/120p (60mbps).. but as you say looking pretty poor at the moment.. will investigate in the morning!
Hey, I'm guessing the tighter weave of, say, an Iron Heart fabric is longer lasting than the slubbier stuff? My partner came at me with scissors to sort out my chain stitch runoffs.
I am not sure regards longevity, another viewer suggested the slubby fabric may be more prone to blowout but my limited experience I am not convinced. I have certainly seen tighter starchy denim show signs of blowout after 12 months wear, but my Onis are doing fine... all denim needs an occasional soak and will wear, repair is part of the evolution... I would miss those runoffs if they werent there... dodge those scissors!
Love the video! Have definitely been wanting to get one of these for a while now. Curious to whether you've heard of or tried bravestars' heavyweight denim?
I'm wondering if he's heard of bravestar as well. I picked up some off ebay and they were tight on the waist and kinda wide at the leg even though they were "regular taper". They are pretty weird fitting and I'm going to have to get the legs tapered further.
Yes, I follow them on instagram, a couple of their tops have caught my eye, their indigo "sawtooth" shirt, and their black sherpa jacket. Looks pretty good stuff and a decent pricepoint
