They look pretty tight and low-rise. How does the denim feel?

@Max:

Well, the waist is ok, and from the top of the knee down they are ok… But the upper thigh-area is really right and the rise is a bit too low imo. I would love a hybrid between this cut and the superblack no-fades from IH to be honest.

The denim is thick, stiff and cardbordy, as expected, have used it for about a week now and already see some fades.

I'm not sure the stitching is up to the denim quality though, as I already have had seams give way (enforced it with my own linen thread).

All in all: I wish the cut was roomier in the hip box area and that the rise was somewhat higher, but the denim is great and I hope that I'll get an inch of stretch in the worst areas to make it a bit less skin-tight.

The only other jeans I like that are wider up top, as I have big thighs, are the APC Rescue. Other than IH-634 that is

My main problem roomy hip box WITH a slim profile further down.

Another brand I have is Raleigh Denim. They have a few you could look at. Unionmade carries them online I believe.

Thanks for the tip! Will check them out.

Not sure Raleigh is a good one for you if you're looking for more room in the hips and thighs.  I have a couple of pairs and they don't have as much room as I'd like in that region.  They're also seriously thin feeling, once you've gotten used to IH weight denim.

[bagley920]

If we're talking heavy, no, def not heavy. I have 2 different cuts of them and they both are loose on me. If you email them I'm sure they will send you specs on what they have available.

looks great ronald.
seems like the soles are holding up well…how´s the fealing to walk in them after some days?

a full fitpic would be nice.

[madmonday]

boots turned out really well Ron.

great choice on that sole

[ronaldlsh]

Walking is still on the painful side.. But I really like the look.. Full pic maybe tmrw…

And oops, I posted it in the wrong thread.. Sorry mods..

[madmonday]

painful walking?  i might have to rethink my sole choice.

why the hell is it painful?  i'm sorry i don't understand

[ronaldlsh]

I posted it at the IH waywt thread, I think the mods moved it here haha.

Monday, the crepe soles were much softer than the commando. I'm guessing it has less impact on the feet. But I must say it's getting better..

[madmonday]

go mods 

i'll continue my comments questions in the redwing or boots thread (once i find it  :-[)

Fantastic fit. Can't wait to get my S0500. Are these hemmed? If not, how tall are you? Already thinking wether to do a mini-cuff or let it stack…
