634 Straight Cut
- Traditional straight cut, inspired by the 1966 Levi’s 501The lot number used for the iconic Levi’s jeans cut. In 1890, Levi Strauss & Co assigned the 501 lot number to their famous patented copper-riveted jeans. The straight fit 501 remains relatively unchanged in cut and aesthetic, although a number of iterations have existed through the years, the rise and leg width changing in accordance with trends and manufacturing techniques. Used as a blueprint by a number of Japanese denim brands, Iron Heart’s 634 and 1955 cuts are both inspired by 501 iterations from the mid to late 20th century.

16oz Japanese Slubby SelvedgeThe terms selvage (US English) and selvedge (British English) are a corruption of ‘self-edge', and have been in use since the 16th century. Selvedge/Selvage is the term for the self-finished edges of the fabric. The selvedge keeps the fabric from unraveling or fraying and is a result of how the fabric is created. When it comes to denim, selvedge fabrics are created on a shuttle loom, the action of the shuttle being responsible for the finished edge. Selvedge fabric is largely considered to be superior to non-selvedge fabrics within the denim community, although this is not longer always the case. The quality of the cotton, the design of the fabric, the type of loom used and the skill of the weaver are the most important factors that affect the quality of the denim. A lack of these factors in the production of selvedge means that fabric with a selvedge ID can be of a mediocre or even poor quality. At the same time, fabric woven on projectile looms, with these factors present can be superior to other selvedge fabrics. Iron Heart produces a range of selvedge denims, chino and shirting fabrics woven on a variety of often vintage shuttle looms, by weavers with generations of experience, as well as premium quality non-selvedge fabrics.

Indigo rope-dyed warpIn weaving, the weft is the term for the thread or yarn which is drawn through the warp yarns to create cloth. Warp is the lengthwise or longitudinal thread in a roll, while the weft is the transverse thread. A single thread of the weft, crossing the warp, is called a pick. Terms do vary (for instance, in North America, the weft is sometimes referred to as the fill or the filling yarn). / white organic cotton weftIn weaving, the weft is the term for the thread or yarn which is drawn through the warp yarns to create cloth.
