n Ventura, California, somewhere between the coastal cliffs and shore break, Iron and Resin® has been making goods for a life spent doing things. Surfing, riding motorcycles, working in the garage, packing up for a few nights outside. Their shirts, jackets, workwear, and accessories draw from that mix of work and recreation, with an emphasis on everyday function and timeless design.
Founder Thom Hill started Iron & Resin in southern California with some friends after spending years in the clothing industry. They wanted to make something that reflected their own lives and experiences—the cool stuff they did everyday. All their rad hobbies and interests helped shape a brand built around the things they enjoyed, and the goods they wanted to use.
Choose well and buy less. Make quality goods with a purpose, put them to work, and keep them around. Iron & Resin’s outerwear, shirts, and leather goods look best after a long day of use, usually tossed over a motorcycle or worn beneath a truck turning a wrench. Do-it-all goods for the folks who actually do it all.
Obviously that sounded familiar to us. Scout® trucks have always belonged to people with something to do and somewhere to go. They handled farm work, family errands, and weekends beyond the pavement. The eight-day-a-week truck earned its name by being useful whenever someone needed it.
Choose well and buy less. Make quality goods with a purpose, put them to work, and keep them around.
For Scout Motors and Iron & Resin, It all started with a “wouldn’t it be cool if….” We recognized something familiar with their approach, there was a mutual appreciation for heritage with substance, honest craftsmanship, and products designed to keep serving a purpose.
Introducing The Scout Motors x Iron & Resin Collection
If you’re going to make something, make it matter.
This collection includes shirts, a work jacket, and a canvas bag, all made to go along for the ride. If you’re headed off-road for the weekend, pack the bag with a change of clothes and a few camp essentials. The work jacket functions in the field or in the city.
And just like that old truck, some things become more yours the longer you live with them. And the old trucks are just as useful as they were back then. Today, owners still load their Scout vehicles with tools, camping gear, kids, and dogs. They maintain them, repair them, and take them out again and again.
A good jacket should be built like a good truck—built to last. Head to ironandresin.com to explore the collection and find something that fits the way you live.
