I see it on characters everywhere and no one has offered me a good answer when I ask about it. How does one acquire heirlooms?

You can get them with Champion's Seal at Argent Tournament.
You can get them with Stone Keeper's Shards in WG when we control it.
You can get them with Emblem of Heroism in Dalaran where the other PvE gear Emblem vendors are.
To expand on Thorbjorn's post a bit, you can exchange higher tiers of Emblems down to Emblem of Heroism (lowest emblem in WotLK) at their respective Emblem vendor.
Frost > Triumph > Conquest > Valor > Heroism
also note: you generally shouldn't turn Frost into Triumph ever... Triumph is easy to farm, Frost isn't.
