IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[unharmed]

Ha! Yes. The missus went on a hen weekend in West Wittering so the kids and I went to pick her up and have a day at the beach (hence the pink towel). Was glorious out actually although today's turned out to be better.

13 months and counting… Three washes.

Probably more like 9-10 months of wear and not leading the most fade inducing lifestyle but still happy and in love with these jawns!

^ Looking very nice. Also, OT but did I notice somewhere that you do BJJ, Jii?

My new pair arrived today! Awesome as always.

I need to get the old pair repaired, and these are a size down anyway.

Can someone comment on inseam shrinkage for these?  I had my 666XHS hemmed to 31.5 and they did not shrink at all but wouldn't want to do the same to these and have them come up on me due to them being less dense.  The 31.5 is working out great but w/ these being straighter through the leg, I don't think stacking will be as attractive.  Thoughts?

[Giles]

Stacking works fine with them

No shrinkage, but you'll get about 1/2 - 1 inch rise when the combs set….

And you'll get less apparent shrinkage out of the 21oz than the 25oz as the 21oz is softer so drapes a bit better...

[Matt]

That works, thank you!

Don't worry, 634S have the finest stacking of all!

Hey all! Got my pair about a month ago…love them so far. So I'm posting here because I have a problem with the proper care of jeans. I gashed my knee open today and got a bunch of blood on the inside of one leg. I wiped it down a bit but I am afraid to soak/wipe too much because I don't want to lose any indigo that way. If I just let it dry out in the sun or something do you guys think it will be fine? I'm just worried about bacterial growth on the inside of the pants leg.

[crankyfart]

wash it to be safe if you're afraid of bacteria. but I'd say, wipe it with a damp cloth and forget about it.

[zhivago]

Wash them, if not for yourself, for those of us around you for feck's sake!

[Matt]

The jeans I was wearing when my daughter was born got freaking gory.  I toyed w/ the idea of a spot clean but came to my senses and threw them in the washer, inside out, gentle cycle cold.  They didn't explode.  Go ahead and wash them, shit happens.

[Chris]

Dude, they're jeans, not the Mona Lisa.  Just wash them.  Don't over think it.  If you wash them inside out, you shouldn't lose much, if any, indigo.  They'll be fine.

Hey everyone!

Brand new to raw denim and japanese denim for that matter. My friend has convinced me to get Iron Hearts and I'm going to take the plunge. Just had a quick question on sizing, both my jeans are tagged as size 38. but here are the measurements that I took using the iron heart method.

1. BLUE LEVI505
waist - 42
front rise - 12.25 
rear rise - 16
thigh - 14.5
knee - 10.25
hem - 9
inseam - 30

2.BLACK 501
waist - 41
front rise - 12.5 
rear rise - 16.5
thigh - 14
knee - 10
hem - 9.5
inseam - 32

As you can see they both nowhere near size 38 in the waist. I was thinking about buying the 38's (http://www.ironheart.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=23)  in the 634S but am hesitant and was wondering if they will stretch. As well should i get them hemmed? I hate having overly long jeans, if so hem to a 32 length?

Thanks in advance for the input.
