The Evolution of Iron Heart

[Dirty Denim]

@riffblaster:

634s worn hard since November 2010.  3 hand washes with Dr. Bronners.  29w stretched to 32.  Wow!

looks like they need a little bit of first aid!

Amazing…I hope i have the patience to do that

@Max:

I know my pair was seen here not long ago, but having given them their second wash makes me post them again. They seem to be much more grey than before, almost no blue to be seen. I hope you enjoy.

These are so damn sexy…I was wondering how these would look with some wear

As these have just come out of the wash, I've taken some photos.
These are IH-106 "Tom Boys" worn by my 6/7 year old son every day that has not been a school day since mid September last year. He wears them hard but also gets them filthy so they've been through the wash too many times to count!

These are 27" waist and my Son was a 24" waist last Sept, so the braces (suspenders) where essential. He's now around 25.5 so we could probably get away with a belt, but he loves them!

The knees on these get plenty of wear as they should from a small boy!

Back in September he was nearly 2" shorter than today, he got some bad heal bite early on which need repair. I patched the outside because they where cuffed and hidden at the time, now the patches are exposed as we've unrolled the cuffs. I've also had issues with his shoes pulling off the overlocking, this seems to have become less of an issue as the cuffs have unrolled (or the shoes have changed?).

Give em' back Dad!

@Max:

This are my IH 634 S-B after the first handwash, worn a bit to dry. Worn since december before that.

(Pics above are are non-flashed, last one is and not colour corrected.)

Did you hand wash these warm or cold? I'm worried about shrinkage with mine

[scroogen]

634s-b is overdyed. Shouldn't need to worry about shrinkage!

[Giles]

Absolutely…..

Epic knee fades there Tommy. I just love that the patch is nearly the same size as the back pockets on those
