@Qinhan:

Thanks guys.  I figure if Finn gives it the tick of approval then it must be ok - you seem to nail the fit on everything IH!

not on everything, already made some bad sizing errors as well thanks a lot though

Hi guys. I picked up a pair of 25oz's last month and I'm experiencing really bad fraying at the bottom of my left cuff. Is this an easy repair?

[injunjack]

Yes…check out thread about repairs.

and to prevent further fraying, soak cuff area properly in hot water, and work fabric with your hands to soften it and get rid of the starch. Change water to clean and repeat soaking and "massaging" the cuff area. Stretch soaked area so there won't be any annoying wrinkles and dip dry.
This might help, or then not...

@Qinhan:

These are my new 25 oz. XHS.  At first I wasn't too sure about the fit as these are my first IH jeans in the 634 cut.

[Anesthetist]

Thanks Sal.  If I can get all my IH gear to fit as well as yours I'll be very happy.

First I wanted a Samurai Jeans, but they do have too many cuts and do shrink and blabla
Iron Heart is the better choice, my 634S fits perfect!!! DC4 have some 32 sizes left in their onlineshop, that´s my size. Hopefully they have one when I am in Berlin the next time in November!
Thanks man

iH is miles ahead (in my opinion) of Samurai, which is still very nice. The IH 25oz line is so much heavier than all the other brands' 24oz models (Samurai and PBJ, which I also have) it's like day and night in terms of feel. IH 25 fabric feels like an armor even after a year of almost daily wear.

In a word, IH rulezzzz

[Seul]

Yeah - if you see eg. Samurai making these…

mmh…

I'm 29 on 634s (but I can do 28)
I'm 28 on 634s-B

If I had the crazy idea to buy myself a pair of 634 XHS (this is one thing that came to my mind suddenly tonight) ... which size should I choose?

[Mild7]

I'm 34 in all IH denim, including 21 and 25 oz 634's and 634sb's, if that helps

[Giles]

Giorgio, you could probably pull off 28 if you are content with a few weeks of pain.

Question:
My 634S (size 32/34) has a 36" inseam, and there are some roll-up´s, so I wear a 30" inseam.

The XHS has a 37" inseam, so they are even longer than my 634S. But I dont want to many roll-up´s because 25ounces are really heavy. I wanna hem my inseam, but I dont know how much… Maybe a 33"???

[rocket]

if you still wanna rock some roll-ups's, yes

New to the forum and to Iron Heart generally - I have a quick question on fit with these jeans:

I'm a weightlifter/powerlifter and often have trouble finding pants that will fit.  I generally have to purchase size 40+ waist pants and have the waist taken in to a 34-36 to get pants that fit my legs.

I've measured a pair of pants of mine that fit well and the thigh sits at just a hair over 14 inches.  I've noted that the thigh measure on the 36's in the 634's is 13.8".  I've also read the posts that most people get a little stretch out of the denim with wear in the waist.  Does anyone have experience with stretch in the thigh as well?

I'm in this weird position where I would actually like to shrink the waist by about an inch or so and get no stretch, but would love an extra inch in the thigh.

Any suggestions with this?

[DougNg]

Stretch in the thigh is pretty normal. Getting 0.2" in stretch should be no issue

As far as the waist stretching, the waist will only stretch as far as the pressure you apply to it. So if you're wearing a size 36 and you're cramming a 37" waist into it, you're going to wind up with a waist of 37" eventually. The fix for this is to wear a thick belt to avoid stretch

One thing to bear in mind: these jeans are VERY stubborn. I have quite a few pairs of IH denim, and these are the most resistant to stretch. This is both a good and bad thing for you it seems…

Time to get some life in this thread. 6 months old. Worn maybe around 4. One Dr. Bronner - handwash.
I call the comb areas heaven and hell. The right side stayed in place after wash a hundred percent. The left side maybe fifty

The leather patch is a thirsty mofo. Oiled it three times after the wash and still looks dry.
