Collaborations with Iron Heart and Nicks Handmade Boots
This week, we have a release we’ve all been waiting for: our annual Iron Heart x Division Road collaboration project, featuring Fox Brothers® wool flannels and the long-anticipated return of Iron Heart’s 16 oz. Slubby Selvedge Denim. As a foundation for this collectible camaraderie, we introduce a new Nicks Handmade Boots collaboration that reimagines a traditional work-boot platform in a more modern, Western-influenced expression. Together, these collaborations and releases represent limited-luxury wardrobe grails and heirloom essentials at their highest level: designed with purpose, built with provenance, and made to evolve through serious wear. This is a hyper-focused release where design meets durability, materials do the talking, craft does the walking, and the results are built for the long road ahead.
Iron Heart x Division Road x Fox Brothers
Our famed Iron Heart x Division Road x Fox Brothers CPO returns as an annual collaboration project built around one of the most enduring military workwear garments, elevated with British wool cloth of the highest order. Based on the original Chief Petty Officer shirt, the IHDR-434 is enhanced in material, pattern, fit, and finish to create a versatile wool shirt that works as a base, layer, or outerwear piece with equal authority. As with this project’s formula, this edition comes in two limited-bolt, 14 oz. West of England Flannels produced by Fox Brothers®.
Inspired by the mill’s location in Somerset, England, a Bottle Brown and Admiral Midnight Blue Check Twill reflect a coastal countryside palette, and an Antique Pewter Puppytooth is accented with a complex Windowpane in deer brown, burgundy, and cobalt that channels the refined gentleman hunter through a more modern lens. These highly worsted, suiting-grade 100% British Lambswool cloths, engineered for outdoor durability, combine density, comfort, flexibility, and a refined finish that define luxury heritage. Completed with buttoned-flap chest pockets, an integrated pencil pocket, a tonal cotton twill-lined collar and cuffs, reproduction military-grade melamine buttons, and felled seams throughout, these future heirlooms fuse military, workwear, moto club, and tailoring influences for the captains of craft collecting.
Iron Heart 16 oz. Indigo Slubby Selvedge
Iron Heart’s 16 oz. Slubby Selvedge Denim returns in two of the brand’s most important core fits, offering a textured, fade and drape-heavy fabric with enough substance for serious wear and enough flexibility for daily use. Built with proprietary slub yarns and controlled, low-tension weaving, this deep rope-dyed indigo selvedge denim — with an irregular surface created by the double-twisted weft yarn structure — softens with wear while developing pronounced highs, lows, and vintage-style fading. Offered in the 634S-SLB Straight and 888S-SLB Relaxed Tapered, these jeans span the classic-to-modern spectrum with two approachable styles that make this specialty denim a true long-term patina project.
Nicks x Division Road Natural Predator Western Rockabilly
The Nicks Handmade Boots x Division Road Natural Predator Western Rockabilly continues a collaborative lineage in which each make-up begins with a core identity and evolves from Last and leather through each specification, giving each boot a distinct character. Inspired by archival logging and work boots from the 1950s and refashioned with a casual western edge, this Western Rockabilly uses Horween® Natural Predator, a combination-tanned, oil and wax-rich leather with a buffed matte grain that will patina and drastically change from an oak-toned natural to a spectrum of browns with serious wear.
Built on the vintage-inspired 11067 Last, this 7" pattern provides a sprung, rounded toe, a moderate profile, and a gripped waist and heel for a boot that is style-forward, fully functional, and intrinsically lifetime-minded. The leather’s natural palette is reinforced with tonal antique eyelets, a fully gusseted brown leather tongue, a beeswax-finished natural leather midsole, and a sculpted logger heel. Finished on a reproduction cork-compound Dr. Sole Split Supergrip sole and assembled with Nicks’ stitchdown construction in Spokane, this Western Rockabilly is built to move from wild rides to late-night swagger without losing its work boot soul.
