The Iron Snail is a men’s fashion vlog starring a young man named Michael and featuring a snail no bigger than a quarter. The two are set on taking over the world of fashion by creating a clothing line to end all clothing lines. Until then, we’re here to tell you EVERYTHING you need to know about the best clothing out there, from the highest quality raw denim jeans to the warmest jacket to the sturdiest boots…the Iron Snail has got you covered.

Love the effort you put into these vids. The community of raw denim content creators are scarce so I appreciate it.
Of course! I love making the vids
The collar corner flips up because it’s one piece and wrapped around the neck so the twill weave goes in a different direction. So, it’s the weave and drape of the fabric.
Passion is something I value. And that’s what I see here!!!
Hey thanks!!
The fact that this was recorded on a baseball field just really pulls it round
Right? Worked out well
I watched this video a dozen times the recent weeks. I definitly gonna get this jacket
Beautiful jacket! I've been loving your content since that 501 shrink to fit video, thanks for making denim talk so interesting fam
Hey thanks!!
DUDE... love your videos. You're funny as hell and knowledgable. Just got a bit obsessed with denim this past month. Got my first raw denim: Tellason's Cone Mills denim jacket. Can't wait to wear it !
AyYyYy thank you!!
The fit is much better after that hot wash/dry. Looks great!
In Japan, Levi's jackets are trending in big size. The Levi's S506XXE released on October 10th is really cool.
I’ll check it out!
I really enjoy your video's man, keep up the great work! Can't wait for more content.
Thanks my friend!!
Michael, this review inspired me to buy this jacket a year ago. It's breaking in great-- I love it. I wanna see an update on how your Type II is looking!
Check out my jacket collection vid, I show it there!
Yeah, I love this jacket! It’s my all time favourite (waiting for an Iron Heart Type III from Self Edge atm, so we’ll see after that...). I actually don’t mind the lack of hand warmer pockets. I use my left hand to place and access stuff in my right pocket and vice versa. Oh, and mine has the same thing with the pocket flaps as yours. Great value for money compared to a lot of brands, and the layering possibilities with the roomy fit is awesome (especially here in Norway). It looks great with just a t-shirt and great with t-shirt->flannel->fleece under it. That increases the amount of times I can wear it, and that further adds to the value.
Thanks for a great video!
Thank you! Also I’m dying to get an IH jacket!
Great you washed and dried it hot. That is the first thing I do with any denim, to "get the shrink out".
I listen to you when I work - I find it very relaxing...you keep me company when I work from home. That's nice isn't it?
Great review! That’s a nice jacket! 👖
Type II is my favorite. Very cool review.
Thanks!!!
Your jacket and jeans are so cool.
That is a nice looking jacket. It's dope asf
Great video mate. Big fan of Levi's myself.
Hey thanks!! Good user name!!
It's had warmers short of perfection. I'm eyeing up my type II now. I'm thinking Momotaro (is that how you spell it) with battle stripes and handwarmers, just to make it lairy.
You deserve more followers. Would love to see a follow up on the Blunnies.
One is coming!
Cool jacket and a good review
I love your video, it’s amazing !
Hey thanks!!
Just ordered my 3rd Type 2... I need this wash to complete my collection.
yeah I agree!
I love the old michael
This jacket fit looks the best for a type 2
Looks like a better fit after you washed it!
that jacket looks awesome
I love it!
Great video 👍🏼
Love your videos, you need more subscribers.
Thanks!!
Thinkin about getting this one and ur vid convinced me, thanks!
Jeremy Panjaitan of course! Enjoy!!
@@TheIronSnail subscribed! :))
Finally got one, thanks!
Great to hear!!!
Washed mine a couple times now and gave it a quick iron after. I hated the pockets and collar standing up and I think it looks a lot sharper after ironing.
Agreed!
my favorite denim jacket.
You do a video on how to soak the denim jacket.
Hi Iron Snail, you might want to check out Momotaro’s 15th anniversary denim jacket on Okayama Denim. It is a type 2 with hand pockets ;)
I saw that and LOVE IT! I’m hoping for another blue owl x Momo collab though. I stupidly sold a gorgeous double indigo stealth striped jacket and I regret it everyday!
Hand warmer pockets are the shit tho fr. I was loving it till then lol. Does it have inner pockets at least?
I have horrible news, no it does not
Hey, at 2:20 where you said you soaked the jacket to fit you better; what exactly did you mean by that? I have a baggie-ish denim jacket that I would like to be more fitted on me so I would like to use the method you did. Sorry about commenting on such an old video btw! Thanks.
Please get an iron heart type 3 14oz and compare both. Which do you think is better?
No hand pockets are probably a bit of a shock if you’re used them but I think it’s a cleaner sharper look honestly. I’m surprise there are no crying comments about the hot wash-dryer thing but it definitely fits better.
I know i was kinda waiting for the pitchforks to come out...
A review of resolute 710 jeans be cool
I’m glad I came across your channel! Neat niche and great videos!
I’ve not noticed significant degradation of cotton stitching including on my 80s type iii with hand warmers that I wore mostly while driving a truck to pay my way through school. Don’t even recall it being called a trucker then. Just a jeans jacket and Levi’s jacket.
Would you recommend going true to size in a unsanforized jacket like you did?
Would love to see how it is now!
I’ll show it soon!
Funny thing is ...raw denim used to be what you got when you went to the store. I remember my jeans were stiff as a board when my Mom would buy me a new pair. Now you pay a premium ($265 ) for a jean jacket. Funny how they are selling these now for top dollar. Hopefully there are less chemicals used on production. That would be interesting to discuss in a video. Still a very good video with good content.
Thank you! And yes good idea!
Thanks for this video. I'll buy one as soon as I lose some weight. appreciate！
Looking forward to hearing about it!
I want hemp jacket 😊
Do the pins on the pocket damage the denim ? will that leave a hole? I think pins look cool but curious on thoughts on longevity / long term damage because of the pins
Good question! Honestly not really, denim is a bunch of threads woven together so it’s not like leather where you puncture it and it’s there forever. If i take the pins out you can see where they were a tiny bit but when i washed this (pins out) I couldn’t find where I had them prior.
I only have a type 1 Levi's jacket. But it was free. Nothing to crazy
Past Micheal this is current Antonio which in this video's time of upload is future Antonio, anyway I bought the black version of that exact jacket and I can't wait to have it in hand!!!
Oh why hello Past Antonio! I hope it’s amazing!
@@TheIronSnail update got the "right" size and it felt small. So I returned it, hope my second jackets fits better!
I know you haven't tried the tcb type 2 jacket, but how do you think that compares to this sugar cane type 2? Looking for a another type 2 in a lighter weight and more of a faithful reproduction than my oni 20oz secret denim type 2
TCB is AMAZING but slim! I love their fit though from what I’ve seen
Starch it like japanese do to achieve those fades like the one you showed
Jacket looks dope after wash. Have you been reading that 'Sugar Cane philosophy bla' from their website?
I haven’t actually! Can you link me?
@@TheIronSnail I was joking. The speech just seemed bit more monotone and fluid - like reading sth. out. Here you go man: www.sugarcanejeans.co.uk/
😜
is there a brand which offers a type 2 jacket with handpockets?
🤔...So where was this reproduction jacket made at...❓ In the USA, or no...❓
Just noticed my jacket doesn't have bartacks on the sleeves, just the rivets. How's your jacket looking these days?
I have personal issue with these type 2 jackets that don't have pockets directly over my nipples are don't include pockets to shove my hands into. It's a loose/loose, times two.
Nipple protecting pockets = must. Why else wear the jacket!
what size you go for and measurements ?great vid
Thanks! I went for a size 38 and I’m 5’9” and 155lbs
Would your size choice be different if you did one wash? You said this was completely unwashed? Thought the self edge sugar canes are one wash but unsanforized
Check out the size at the end after I washed!! I think I may have gone up to a 40 but it’s not a deal breaker at a 38
Have you tried wetting the collar and trying to flatten it in the corner?
I actually did!! Not too much and i probably could have done more but i put a pin on the collar anyway and that fixed it
❤😊
How many wears or how long after did you wash it?
I think about a year!
Best part 08:01 LoL
!!
thats one sexy jacket
It says “my oh my thank you!”
@@TheIronSnail tell it i need phone #
just told it! I’ll get back to you soon
It said so sorry but it does not seem to have a phone
to long for a exact repro.
True! Forgot to mention
Seat belt for the conspiracy theory
I really enjoy the Tarantino moments among your 15+mins of unleashed objectified obsession.
it’s not slubby lol
