Geschiedenis
Shinichi Haraki founded Iron Heart in 2002 after twenty years of experience in the Japanese garment industry. He established the brand to create clothing specifically for motorcyclists, utilizing heavy fabrics like twenty-one-ounce denim. In 2005, Giles Padmore partnered with Haraki to expand the brand internationally. Iron Heart contributed to the global resurgence of Japanese selvedge denim and established a standard for heavyweight textiles within the heritage menswear movement.
