Collaborations and Releases with Iron Heart, MotivMfg, Freenote Cloth, Studio D’Artisan, and Samurai
This week, we present one of our most anticipated drops of the year with our long-overdue Iron Heart x Division Road x Fox Brothers 434 CPOs, alongside several MotivMfg collaborations and limited-run releases from Freenote Cloth, Studio D’Artisan, and Samurai. From new recruits to the commanding captain collectors of craft, this release is designed to inspire patrons to experiment with their wardrobes during the warmer months and beyond. Our signature Iron Heart Fox CPO collaboration features inherently special, durable staples, creating a collection that transitions seamlessly from outdoor adventures to the front lines of life’s travails with a sense of purpose, luxury, and vision.

Finally, we introduce the fourth edition of the IHDR-434 CPO shirt, built upon the Fox Brothers® 14 oz. West of England Twill Flannel cloths using corded lambswool with a soft, luxurious hand, woven as a twill to enhance durability, drape, and produce an intricate pattern effect. The simple, practical design of the IHDR-434 Wool CPO pattern is refined from the original Chief Petty Officer issue, crafted to be a versatile wool shirt that doubles as an overshirt. It features a hallmark strong-point collar, flap-front patch chest pockets with a hidden pen slot, and a buttoned front placket and cuffs. This CPO features an expertly tailored silhouette and is elevated with above-military-grade melamine buttons and tonal twill trim lining throughout.
Combined with a refined fit and Iron Heart’s precise heavy-duty craftsmanship, these limited editions are true collectible future heirlooms, always crafted from special edition fabrics from the finest English producer of above-suiting-grade wool cloths. Made for the outdoors, these two versions reflect the changing moods of England’s Southwest countryside and feature an unparalleled finish with a luxurious feel that blends engineered structure and drape, creating two distinct identities that cater to any collector’s needs, from the battlefield to the backwoods. The 434-BGC Saddle Brown Gun Club exudes the vibe of a vintage vehicle, hunting lodge, and riding blanket all in one, with a gun club mini-check pattern in saddle brown and ebony over an ash white field. The 434-TBC Tuscan Brown Check captures the golden hour tones of seaside and rolling hill landscapes in a classic tartan-inspired check with a heathered fog of wheat and chestnut browns on an indigo blue backdrop.
MotivMfg x Division Road
For a small but mighty output from the MotivMfg studio, we have some signature and revered collaborations to fill those wardrobe gaps or serve as excellent additions to deep collections. Our core button down development of the American Camp Shirt, designed to transition from tailoring to the outdoors, comes in a heavy suiting-weight Irish Linen in Bone from the esteemed specialist, Spence Bryson®.
One of our most collected and sometimes stockpiled works with Motiv is our Swiss Army Cargos, known for their directional yet approachable fit and detailing that provide cool-guy comfort, drape, and a structured form in various fabrications. The Desert Japanese High Density Twill offers the versatility of a classic chino, but with much more style. Meanwhile, the Natural Tailors Selvedge Denim delivers a cool grey color that will develop charcoal tones over time, allowing it to coordinate effortlessly with different ensembles that exude a mod-street persona.
Studio D’Artisan | Samurai | Freenote Cloth
This curated collection of eclectic and unified craft goods highlights exceptional Japanese fabrics designed for summer and beyond. Studio D’Artisan uses its exclusive mud-dyed Amami Dorozome Sashiko Cloth, woven with a Boro Jacquard pattern, and applies it to a 1940s-inspired jacket in a limited edition that will become a staple.
Freenote Cloth introduces two camp shirts with the Navy Aloha Double Pocket Dean and the Light Blue Skeleton Hawaiian, both reflecting mid-century summer style with a modern twist. Amplifying the souvenir vibe for warm weather, Samurai offers a unique Hand Printed Snake Camp shirt inspired by the ancient Narihirabishi pattern, reimagined with a fresh Ivy-style meets bowling alley aesthetic, crafted with quality that matches its stylish appeal.
