21 Ounce Denim

Slim LegThe 8301s by Iron Heart is one of Iron Heart's flagship slim models with the silhouette designed by both Self Edge and Iron Heart; bringing their signature 21 ounce Super Black Fade-To-Gray selvedge denim to a slim cut jean. These are made with hand picked Zimbabwe Cotton that is known for it's unusually long fibers which give this denim a soft hand considering it's weight.
Iron Heart denim is known for it's ultra sheen and extreme durability due to it's heavy weight. Almost any other company attempting to produce denim this heavy would end up with a very stiff and rigid fabric, where as Iron Heart's denim is suprisingly pliable considering it's weight.
Disclaimer: These jeans are made of raw sanforized denim, when washed, the denim will shrink approximately .5" in length (inseam). Please keep this in mind when choosing your size. The denim will also stretch in the waist up to 1" after approximately 20 wears." - via Self Edge_

Damn it, if these had a black patch and selvedge they would definitely be my next denim

Yep. That would make them a must buy for me too.

Because of the pattern, a selvedge edge isn't possible on the 301 cut, but it is, technically speaking, still selvedge denim.
I know you guys know that, but I want to avoid any confusion by less experienced members.;)

Corrected…

For me, the visible selvedge is less of a deal breaker than the black patch to be honest. I love the 301 cut, but I'm more than likely gonna roll with the 634's in the 23oz denim.

Why is it impossible? Because of the jean pattern being too skinny?

Thanks.

Unfortunately, once a pattern is made, it seems like it's really hard to make any changes. If I remember correctly, that's why the original 634S doesn't have belt loops sewn into the waistband. They weren't done that way originally, and they've never been changed. Several subsequent models with the same cut, however, have that detail, because they're new patterns.
(Giles will correct me if I'm wrong…;))
-
Yeah, that's what I assumed. I figured that, when the pattern was made, having a selvedge side seam wasn't all that important or maybe it was just more expensive.
Now, I feel like, since I live in a large city, the selvedge side seam is like having nice rims on a car or something. My clothes are part of my ride as I walk around haha.

I would love a 634 version for this denim. But I'm pretty sure we will get there one day.
Ditto on a 666 version.

These are somewhat bigger then the previous 301s.
Also, surprised folks find the visible selvedge line so important for a jean with this much taper. I find 301s aren't really designed to cuff.
