    All decisions are easy.

    Either the options are so close it matters not a feck
    or
    the options are so far apart that the answer is obvious

    (i.e., toss a coin)…..

      I'm wearing the 21oz and they are obviously fantastic but I would dearly love to see someone absolutely cane a pair of Buster Raw.

                        Just thought I'd post quickly to say how awesome these jeans are.  First pair of IH, and what a great choice I made. Perfect fit, mind-blowing denim, just stunning.

                        More feedback to follow, including fit pics…

                            Hello General Giles, Paula & IH fans,

                            I'm delighted to receive my 1st IH pair today! I went for the Beatle Buster 21 oz. First, many thanks to G. & Paula for the wonderful service: the denim got shipped the same day and reached me in Dubai 5 days! The product itself has exceeded all my expectations: Beautiful denim (heavy!), fit and construction! No doubt, a pair to cherish for a long time especially given its my 1st japanese selvedge.

                            Question about sizing: I measured my favorite 4 jeans as per the provided instructions to determine which size to order. Ended up going for 33 (width). When I tried them on, the fit felt great but not overly tight. If these were regular (non-denim) trousers it would be just perfect! I had zero difficulties buttoning up and the only way I can put my finger in here is by squeezing it (not too hard) between the denim and my belly.
                            That said, i can help but think i might have gone 1 size smaller. I often read that people would get by their supposedly perfect denim size by buying a pair that is initially (very) hard to button up since the denim eventually stretches out to fit hem perfectly.

                            I'm interested in your opinion on the subject and don't mind exchanging my pair for size 32 to get a perfect fit. Your input is really appreciated by his IH newbie  🙂

                              If there's nothing in the fit you dislike, and they fit like a dream waistwise, why would you want to size down?.. They won't stretch a lot if they're not tight on you. Most people size down cause they want a slightly slimmer silhouette…

                                Seul pretty much covered it.

                                If the fit looks ace then don't bother returning the jeans and risking having the jeans not fit. Waste of time and money. If you provide us with pictures, we can help you a bit more as the waist is just one aspect of the fit of the jeans.

                                I'm as ugly as you

                                  Oh and zatenm: always wear a belt with it. As you should, when wearing jeans, but it also of course prevents from any unnecessary/ exuberant stretching…

                                    Thanks for the helpful feedback guys  🙂

                                    I cant post fit pics unfortunately. My full length mirror was recently smashed (luckily I'm not superstitious!) but to give you a good idea: my fit looks very similar to the comparo pic of Beatle vs 634 on the BB threat. It's also a bit beefier than the pics of G. wearing the BB (same thread), which looks slightly slimmer on the thighs and calves

                                    I'm concerned because I read several times that some IH jeans do stretch up to 2.5 inches! Also I've just noticed that while the front waistline is as described before, I can slip my palm very very easily under the back waistline. Th fit is great now but if it stretches that much then I wont be happy with it. I'm assuming  those who reported that much stretching wear belts too, no? (I always do)

                                    Shit this is confusing… Not sure what to do.... 😞

                                      Seul and J-IV are right that the waist won't stretch much if you wear a belt, the people who are getting 2" of stretch are getting that much because they bought a smaller waist size than their waist actually measures. However, they will stretch a bit in the seat and thighs (in my experience) because the denim stretches in these areas when you sit. So if your fit is borderline enough that you won't like it if it stretches slightly in these areas, size down one and they will stretch to fit you perfectly. Otherwise, keep what you have.

                                        Good point xtcclassic. I think I'm gonna hold on to these based on all the feedback. Besides shipping cost turned out to be 80 usd and that's jut one way!!  😞
                                        I'll post some pics and a mini review next week! Thanks for all the help!
