Yup - limited to 50 pairs.  In production at the mo….

[hangten]

good lord, my wallet is gonna be hurting!  G, at 50 limited are you gonna carry them or only DC4?

@Giles:

Had a chat with the Big H today.

We are going to make more of these.

Haraki loves them so much he wants to release them as  special Western edition in Japan.

What does that mean special western edition?

[Giles]

It means I specced them for us over here, but Haraki is going to sell them (and he asked my permission - bless him) in japan…

[kit99bar]

Giles, you are the man!

I always wanted to ask why you favor IH over all the brands you represent. Now I understand

[simonc]

if I may, the 55's would be win in 25oz simply because the cut can literally carry the weight of the jeans over the hips with ease.

[vespr1198s]

I check the forums every day hoping to catch wind of production of a 25oz version of the 55

@injunjack:

could you do measurements when you get them back. I'd like to see if they differ. What's your gut feeling about this?

Here you go IJ both size 34

SR                    XHS

Thigh      336mm              338mm

Knee      240mm              248mm

Hem      230mm              236mm

So yes, just a bit looser.

[injunjack]

as I suspected by looking at the pics. Thanks, then 25oz is  definately a no go for me.

[Jsticklee]

It's been a gourd thanksgiving!

634-XHS Style!

[georgeel]

the difference is very small (2 mmm in thigh!!!) and may vary from one piece to another.
IMHO you might even find a pair of XHS tighter than a pair of 634S!

@Jsticklee: great!

Are these jeans comfortable? I can understand the fan-boy appreciation for a new model of Iron Heart jean that expands what seems to be outside the realm of possibility but, for those in possession of the 25 oz denim, are they truly wearable? Does the interest solely lie within "denim-geeks" who believe these new jeans will have wicked-rad fadez? I am sincerely interested in hearing an objective opinion–if that's possible to attain around here--as I'll be directing more attention to how I select my next pair of jeans.
