Any ETA on restock?

That's really good to hear. I feel like these are at the very least, the best looking fit ive ever had on a pair of jeans. My only experience was some 14oz, as well as 14oz stretch Kato brand; so tight denim still kinda scares me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

@neph93:

@BorderWhippett if 21oz isn't a little tight when you start then you've sized wrong. They will relax meaningfully with wear, stitching at least an inch in the waist, and possibly half an inch in the thigh (if you need it).

The 21oz will not shrink much, if at all, and you don't need to soak it as it was been thoroughly sanforised already (not that your soak will have damaged anything in any way).

They look perfect to me. As you say, folks wear them a lot tighter than that. They are "super slim" after all. Congratulations on a fine pair of jeans.

First post/fit check

First pair of iron hearts. Waist size 36. Super nice. I havent gotten a lot of time to wear them yet due to Chicago being in the mid 80s. Did a cold soak in the tub to stretch them out a tiny bit and shrink the length so i could get them hemmed. They do seem a little tight in the the upper thighs/butt, and knees, although i always see everyone wearing this exact pair in an even tighter looking fit. I take it theyll soften up more? The only selvedge I've worn before was some railcar spikes but these 555-01s are a completely different animal.
