@BloodnThunder thanks for the advice. I don't have a separate dryer, do you think I could still get some shrinkage by just using a hot wash?
thanks

@daveylonghair82 I think you will get some shrinkage without a drier. You may have to do multiple hot washes to get the desired amount. It sounds like @TrickHell continued to get shrinkage out of his after multiple washes so, personally, I would give that a shot. I think it's worth an attempt because of how nice the t's are.

thanks, i might have to give it a go
-
well i gave it a go, in fact i washed it 3 times, and it did shrink, just not enough, maybe if i bought a large then it would shrink down perfectly
thanks for the advice though

they look kind of awesome, but wanted to hear from someone on the Iron Heart train in terms of quality goods. . .

Here's mine. I love them and they're definitely built well. I sized wrong and they're a little bigger than I'd like but still plan on getting a lot of wear out of them. They're currently on the back burner because of my Black Marias.
I'm wearing these for the DWC and also for Left Fields fade contest.

I based it off the size charts of these and a pair of greasers I tried on and ordered 1 size bigger because the greasers were tight. It was all based on an impression I needed a much bigger thigh measurement than I thought so it's entirely my fault.
I was able to size my Black Marias perfectly though.

Size 32. Fits a 33. Not sure whether they've been washed. Must've been since the inseam is supposedly 36.5 but is more like 33"… Weird... Also, the colour is different (brighter)...
Fabric is great, pockets are stellar, fit + cut is perfect to work in... Glad I didn't pay full price (I paid 140$ and they're as good as new), but you could definitely do worse... Wouldn't advise this to people with a long inseam though...

awesome fit @Seul Brother Numero Uno.
Too bad green trousers don't work for me at work @ I agree the fabric is awesome on them & the hoodie & boots looks pretty awesome as well.
one of the best fits I've seen from you actually . . .although the good fit seems to have distorted your snout & such

fabric looks awesome.
thanks for the response & information Pig-Boy

I'm looking at the Left Field Miner in Indigo Raw- looking for help on the sizing.
I realize they have them up on the site in detail but I went into Freeman in Seattle to try on and the Tan Miners http://www.freemanseattle.com/collections/left-field/products/left-field-miner-chino-caramel-duck they had in 30 were actually tighter than the Kerouacs that I also tried on. I actually went back and they measured at 11" on the thigh, not close to the 11.75" posted on the LF site.
I've got a narrower waist but def some thighs. I wrote LF and got a response but Christian hasn't/won't respond to my asking for measurements on the thigh given my experience at Freeman.
Anyone have this version of the Miner and can help out? Annnnd how much should I expect these to shrink on cold wash, hang dry since they are raw?
Thanks!

Finally decided to get a new pair of ducks since I had some extra cash begging to be spent….ha.
I can't wait to see them in person tomorrow when I get them. Olive 13oz duck Miners, should be a great fit with a little extra room in the thigh compared to my IH, but only a little(so perfect).
If they are as good as I hope, I will post some up close pictures in a few days. Been dying for some olive ducks. Would love some ox blood duck jeans!
