IH-633S - Self Edge x Iron Heart 21oz Selvedge Straight Tapered
-
Hi everyone,
Thanks again for the input. I've decided to return the 633s! I was able to try a pair of 888s locally (though not in the 21oz that I wanted) and the waist was snug but I could still get the top button done. I think the thigh to knee area should be good if I get the 21oz as well (the 14oz overdye I tried seemed a tad tighter on the legs, but this makes sense to me since the knee measurement is a bit smaller per IHUK website vs 21oz. The 14oz fabric may just be more rigid as well). The butt area on the pair I tried on seemed a touch on the slim side as well but perhaps it'll work out with a bit of wear, especially if I get the 21oz indigo fabric.

I don't personally think that the thighs look too tight (imo they look pretty dead-on, actually) but I do agree with peeps that the waist looks too big. The 21oz is one of the most forgiving denims and stretches a lot, so it's not a bad thing at all if the waist feels tight when you first get em.
Also agree that the 888 is worth checking out. I'd go with IH's size chart over Self Edge's as a general rule, though.

@yuffington @kiya may/will know the answer to this one.

They have both the 14 and 18 oz denims in this cut, overdyed.

I want's the 21!!!!
What can I say, it's glorious. -
@Matt Ok. Perhaps I should seek these out.
-
I think they’re worth the investment. The old school 18 oz Beatle Buster were my FW23 main pair.
You may already know this but SE doesn’t measure the same way IH does. If you aren’t near one and can’t try them on you may want to check their How We Measure info on their website to make sure. Please let us know how you make out.

I don't know if my pair was mislabeled, but it's a tag 32 with a 34.2 inch waist...
The current measurements on SE seems more in line with the tag sizes, but it's definitely something to be aware of if anyone is looking for a pair of these on the secondary market.

LOL.. tried, but failed to find 18oz OD. I'll keep my eye out for any future releases of 18 or 21oz OD in the 633! @kiya you're my only hope

Seems there’s a few sizes left? -
@sabergirl Sadly, not mine.

For all those concerned about my overdye pursuit.... I ended up trying on the 633 142od, just to figure out sizing. Liked them so much I bought them. Love them. Found the 14oz to be quite heavy feeling for the weight. Seemingly heavier than another pair of 15oz from another brand. Will this prevent me from buying 21od if they ever appear? Hell no! LOVE the midnight blue of the OD.....
-
@yuffington my 633 18oz OD def my favourite jeans I've ever owned. 633 cut is perfect for me, yet to try 777 but from what I can make out from sizing charts it's quite similar..
-
@T4920 I've tried the 777. Rise is too low for me, and I found the thighs to be possibly a little tight. I've tried all the cuts except 666, and found the 633 is my best fit. Would love to try 666, but SE doesn't stock them. From the sound of it though, I might have similar issues in thighs.
