That was official..Makes me wanna throw on my Adidas, put a card board box down in the street anddddd BREAK DANCE

[davito]

Me like it too. Raw's are bit fuller than 634S and will settle. i wear my SR in a simular way with a cuff. And I believe there is small shrinkage left when you wash in a later stage. Have fun

Yeah zendeen give us the beat

nice one guys…mine getting their 2nd wash soon...then off for a hem and maybe some tapering, we´ll see!

Jeez, might as well hit the park for some sliding while you're at it.

smh.

:p

[Finn666]

nope…no sliding, only sp for my jeans

Hope this isn't pic overload but a discerning mod can decide on that perhaps.

I got my IHs back around the start of the year, have been wearing them constantly and today was the day that they got their first wash. So i'm gonna post.

Pre-soak pics, a champagne soak pic and pic of them drying on the line. The Gods must have been smiling as it was pissing down with rain this morning but as soon as the process of washing them was done the sun came out to play and do it's part. I guess that's a thumbs up from the wabi-sabi demi-god.

Let me know what you think guys 'n' gals. I'm sort of a newbie (bit of a lurker for the last ages) and this is my first pair of Iron Hearts (most definitely not my last), first time posting pics and, of course, these jeans are precious to me 

Oh, and yes, i have no arse. If this all goes well (on the posting pics front) i'll sling a few post wash pics up tomorrow. Pre-soak fit:

[Finn666]

[grandmasterben]

Looks great! If that's a blowout I see…..fixit ASAP!! I definitely regret not fixing mine and next time I definitely will when I see it coming.....

[Finn666]

nope, no blowout, just some tiny rips…taking them to the tailor during the next week for an overall check (reinforcement, heming, taperin, etc.!)...

[beautiful_FrEaK]

who ate your selvage line? or did it rip because of your boots? (IIRC Flo had some issues with the speed hooks on his Iron Ranger causing damage to his jeans)

[Finn666]

i guess so buddy…happened while working in a warehouse me thinks...just noticed it the other day though, as i´ve turned them inside out for their last wash!
