@JerkStore said in IH-777S-21od - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Overdyed Indigo:
I am grabbing a pair of these, but have a query for anyone.
My previous OD I got the OG yellow thread and it was too bright.
What thread color would ya'll suggest that seems more tonal? I was thinking black, but I got a recommendation for charcoal or grey.
I painted my thread with a black marker pen and its almost same tone as the od thread.
Any plans for 1955 cut in any other colour than Indigo ? OD ?

@Hohba01 21od in the works...
sounds lovely looking forward to both releases in due time.
@AdamJ said in 1955S - 21oz Selvedge Denim "1955" Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo:
@drewfonse It is in production in the 21oz. We have a sample of the 14oz, that will go in to production in the coming months with a view to be delivered Q2/Q3 next year.
Any plans on OD version of either 21oz or 14oz ?
Is the red on this shirt the same red as IHSH-232-RED ?
How soft is this denim compared to IHSH-338-BLK ?
@AdamC said in IH-101J-SR - 18oz Selvedge Denim Storm Rider Jacket - Indigo:
@Darth-fader Pretty sure we will be getting more larges so I will make sure you are first to hear, should be with us next week
What about more XXXL ?
Copper snaps match the seams.
I just bought one of these in xxxl and washed it in 60 C, 400 rpm.
Before and after measurements:
Shoulder: 51cm 50cm
Length: 79cm 78.5cm
Chest: 62cm 61.5cm
Waist: 57.5cm 57cm
Opening: 59cm 58cm
Sleeve 69.5cm 67.5cm
Not sure why i didn't get more shrinkage on length, might have measured wrong before wash.
I got the shrinkage on arms i wanted so its all fine. Now begins the work to fade it.

Hopefully this positive response grants the 1955 a seat at the table more often/consistently going forward!
I was musing what denims we could more 1955's with last night
My thoughts...
- XHS
- 18oz vintage
- 17oz natty
While, my personal bias will always have me favoring the XHS, I realize the 18oz is likely the most fitting choice...
Would me nice with any of these in OD or the 21oz in OD in this cut.
I hope the OD version makes a comeback now that this is selling so fast.
@Dstauffer said in IHSH-264-RED - Ultra Heavy Flannel Ombré Check Western Shirt - Red/Black:
You can always try hot washing and get some shrinkage, that said you risk shrinking the length at that point too.
I am in the same boat being a taller slimmer guy and my MO since I started with IH has been to size up to a XXL to get the body/sleeve length I need. An IH old timer said something along time ago that always stuck with me, unfortunately with clothing produced on this scale, sizing will always be a compromise given the measurements are not custom to everyone’s individual frame. Some shirts I have feel like they were made for me, others have areas that are a bit loose depending on how they were sewn up given that they are made by humans which allows for variances. This is especially true if you have an outlier build (ie, like you and I, taller and slimmer).
So I doubt there will be drastic changes in FW of 24 measurements as IH has really nailed down consistency in terms of measurements (back in the day there could be very noticeable variances between shirts of the same season) and your best bet would be to decide which compromise works best for you or find a way to alter measurements (hot washing, taking to a tailor, etc)
I washed my IHSH-369-GRY in 3XL in 60° C and lost about 1 cm in lenght and 2 cm in sleeve lenght. I think they should be the same shrinkage. Measurements pre shrink was from IH crew so i had to convert from inches to cm.
@Alex said in Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?:
We still have lots of that denim left to use up
As a newer IH fan i missed these , guess i would be one of few to buy the jeans, i love the denim in the IHSH-326-BLK. I wish anyone with the jeans had pics how it fades.
@John-Galt said in Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?:
XHSii (all the cuts)
Any new XHS variant would be awesome.
@Alex The red burgundy solid UHF looks amazing. I hope you make a olive green.
@jerkules said in What's your single most all-time favorite Iron Heart piece ever?:
Hard to choose, but I think my recent IH-526Lod takes the prime spot. I have a soft spot for the 19oz lefty fabric (fav pair of indigo jeans ever) and the overdye takes it to another level. Hefty but totally soft and wearable. I love that the overdye isn’t completely consistent over the fabric; you can see where it’s pooled into the seams and in other areas making it deep inky black/blue. I also love how they age and have been admiring @AdamJ ‘s superb jacket for a long time.
I have a IH-526Lod aswell and i agree that 19oz lefty fabric is amazing when over dyed. I hope there will be 19oz lefty pants that are over dyed someday.
IH-634-XHSmb in my size, and they sold out 
Getting more blue and softer after every wash. The fades that start to show looks amazing. Washed often just like my XHSBB.
@Oaktavia
Probably my favorite pair they get used a lot with my blue 25oz XHS. Photos don't make them justice. I'm not a fast fader never wear jeans for work and don't have my jeans to tight.
They really soften up after some time, only worry is i can't buy new black XHS since i like them more than blue.
