as u can tell from the title,just landed a brand new pair of 301s from fleabay,32w/36l for 150rips,tried em on,,love em straight away,not too tight,plenty of breathing room.Was i tad scared they would be like drainpipes on me,so glad they aint,not used to wearing slim style jeans.Iknow they aint sanforized ,but i soaked em anyway,out on the line at the mo,gonna rotate em with my flathead 3007s(another fine jap denim),big congrats on a top and very informative forum,thats what made me hit the buy it now button,all you ppl out there know yer denim,hats off to you all,now to get em to dry ,

the denim on the 301s is Sanforized. unless you bought them one-wash, your FH 3007 should have been unsanforized when you received it. either way, congrats on your purchase, welcome to the forum, and mods, merge?

Hello all,
I am a proud owner of 301s-07BK over-dyes for close to two months now.
my first IH purchase, and now of course i am hooked like an addict, wanting more.Now i want to purchase a pair of regular 301s.
my question:
i sized 28 in my 301s-07BK and they fit great after the two weeks of bruising and doing ridiculous stretching to get them in working order, they fit pretty snug on me which is the look i go for.shall i size 28 or 27 in the 301s then for the same fit?
i ask this only because i know that the 301s-07BK are raw unsanforized and in the over-dyed process lost their shirking.
and i believe the 301s is raw sanforized denim.will the regular 301s stretch more then then over-dyed version?
or will the two denims act similar regardless of being un/sanforized??thank you guys for your help!
PS.
i read that IH denim sometimes changes yearly on certain pairs?
will the denim quality change on the 301s in new stock update as well, or are they standard? -
Nemesis those look freakin GREAT on you man… awesome fit.

Davichan, you're going a mile a minute bro!
Ok, as far as I know the denim on both your pair of 301overdyes and the regular 301s are going to stretch about the same amount.
The denim on the 301s is not likely to be changing anytime soon, and if it did, this would be the place to hear about it….or with kiya.
That all said, the best way to judge what size you'd want to get for the 301s is that you go measure your overdyes and compare to the Self Edge measurements and size down about one to account for stretching., or if you want a more comfortable fit go tts.
Hope that's been helpful, and again, all of those questions are perfectly answerable here at the iron heart forum, where excessive is just the beginning.
