Need some advice as I am looking to purchase a new pair and don't really have a pair to measure that fits. I am coming from a size 34 666s that were fine in the waist but tight in the hips/thighs etc. I also have a 634s-raw size 33 that is fine in the thighs and while I can button them up, the top block is uncomfortably tight and like the 666 results in a plumber situation if I have to sit or bend over. I was thinking a 36 bb, which appears to be safe on paper via the IH measurements however self edge says otherwise - looks like it might be similar or even smaller than the 666s from their measurements. How fitted is the top block/thigh/waist in the bb compared to 666 in the same size? My other option was the currently OOS 634s size 35. I like the higher rise and slimmer lower leg of the bb so was hoping to go in that direction. Bottom like is I don't want to end up with another beautiful pair that I can't sit down. Bike, or walk up two steps at once in.

Just received my pair of Beatle busters. Ordered them in a 36. They are very tight in the waist butt and hip area. I can button them. But they are pretty darn uncomfortable. I am a bigger dude in those areas. I am very nervous about whether they will stretch to comfort ability in those areas or wether I should just get another cut. Any suggestions. Thanks.

First post here, been glued to the site for the past week since I got my first IH - the Beatle Busters of course. Now, you've ruined me for other jeans. I can't even look at my old 3sixteens, Gustins etc etc. Just want to put the Busters on as much as possible.
Couple quick ones, but fit pics to come. My big questions is should my next IH be the OD or SBG?

Haha, had the same issue when I got my BBs. Try the left front pocket and give it a more thorough look…

It's a sneaky thing but it's there! It also holds a small Sebenza perfectly

My first pair of the 21oz denim and I must say, they truly are an amazing pair of jeans. Worn for about a year and washed a handful times. I'm either getting fat or the last wash shrunk them a little more than planned because it's hard to squeeze in them now. I think I'm getting fat.

Arrived & unpacked.
I popped a pair of 33's (my normal IH size in), initial impressions:
It's effing cold out there in just a tee
Box section is way more fitted than the IH-634S
Thigh is tighter and more fitted
More taper from the knee downBeats, we have a winner:
Hey Giles, is 33 your tag size or waist size in these guys?
Also how tall are you? lol, sry, you're the main model so I'm curious -
Just picked up a pair from IHUK. I've been trying to pare down my closet over the past month and have sold off a lot of denim. Was looking for a versatile fit (not too slim but not too baggy…a "goldilocks" fit). After trying a zillion types of sanforized/unsanforized/overdyed/naturally dyed/ blah blah blah denims, the
standard 21oz seemed to offer the best of all worlds. And well worn pairs in this denim have always caught my eye with a fairly "natural" look, for lack of a better word. Have always been a fan of the general lack of gimmicks in iron heart clothes.Couldn't be happier with these - tight in the top block on first wear but loosening already. Rigid but miles softer than most other raw denim. I'm a sucker for the herringbone pocket bags, and love a lined back pocket.
Not the best pics, but gives you a general sense of the fit.
