First of all welcome IDH / Tom,
@IDH:
I have recently been trying to improve the quality of items in my wardrobe.
good
I'm now looking to spend. I have been researching the best brands for clothing items and have discovered your website
very good and the right place to do so!
- I notice a lot of people in the various threads I have browsed wear their jeans most days of the week, is this essential to getting an optimum fit?
no, wear them as often you want, not a problem at all…

Hiya Tom!..
You might've noticed that the IH UK store has a sale going for the next 4 days: discount of 12 % on all items… Maybe not a bad idea to buy some jeans right now!..
Most of us wear our jeans almost continuously, or in rotation with another pair, just because we're dirty feckers!.. The others are just lazy... No, honestly: breaking them in takes a while, and after that I guess they feel so good you just don't want to take 'm off... Right now I only have my IH-666-XHS as jeans for the colder season, so they get worn 5-6 days/ week.
I just hang my jeans, using a hanger with two clips. Never did anything else, seems to work...
If you're looking for a slim fit, basically the 666S'es are your best option. But hey I'd love to see some fit pics of your fav jeans!.. If you're a sz. 28 in Levi's (or any other lightweight jeans) your actual waist might be bigger... Best is to measure the waist of your best fitting pair!..

Welcome Tom, good name
As for the style/ fit you are describing, I would go for the 666 devils fit in 18oz raw for your first venture into Iron Heart, really nice, slim cut jeans and the denim is fantastic. I have the Beatle Busters in the same denim, which aren't quite as slim cut.
If you want to try super heavy then the 666XHS (25ox denim) might be good, but perhaps not for your first heavy jeans.
I'll leave it to those who own the 666 to advise you whether to go true to size, or go up one or down one.
Happy purchasing, and a great weekend to do it, there is currently 12% off

I agree with the others on the 666 recommendation. As for care, don't stress about it. You're probably worried, since they're more expensive than anything you've owned prior, but really, they're just jeans. I hang mine by the waistband from a hook on the closet and when I feel like they're dirty, toss them in the washer and dry them in the dryer. No big deal.
Just wear and enjoy. Oh, and welcome to the IH world.

Thank you all for welcoming me - seems a really nice friendly atmosphere on this forum
Unfortunately the 666S don't have any 28" in stock - and I'm not sure if a 29 will be wise if it will go up to a 30 after a few months (Like Giles's). Will they be coming back in stock any time soon? They look awesome.
Thanks again

I feel the urge to catalogue my DVD collection - it takes too long to find specific disks - any recommendations/experiences for/with specific software?
Requirements:- stable database (+1000 titles)
- take information from iMDb, or similar
- TV series with episode details, documentaries, films, focus on non-Hollywood
- can be MS Windows 7 based if it works with iPad/iPhone for browsing/searching or
- can be iPad based (apps)

Is there, or was there ever a football (soccer) thread on here? I sometimes feel the need to rant more specifically about my affliction of supporting a team run by incompetent, spiteful, accountants, who appear to sporadically hit upon a magic formula, which they then instantly sell for an outrageous profit.

FOXY - I thoroughly recommend http://www.plexapp.com/.

Singing "You'll never walk alone" with hundreds of people at a random place (market)/ non football related area = goosebump material!..

Silly question from me, could anyone (G?) tell me what the differences are between an IHSH-20, 32 and 54, apart from colour.
