IH-555-02 - 18oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo
-
I just got my first pair of Iron Heart jeans, the 301s from SENY, they feel so great! And I'm already thinking about getting a second pair! I'm trying to decide between the 666 and the 555 fit in the 18oz denim. I'm a little confused because according to the IH site the thigh on the 666 is .9" smaller than the 555, in size 29, even though the 555 is a slimmer fit. Is that correct? I have to wait for IH to get either fit in a size 28 anyway.

Few questions
1. Are there any plans to restock these jeans?
a size 32 would be perfect for me, but if they aren't going to be restocked then I will just get the 31 and make it work.2. Are the versions of these jeans made for The Denim Vault in Jakarata exactly the same measurements?
Im going to try and see if they have a 32 left and would ship to the US, but I want to make sure they are sized the same before I call.3. On the sale page for these, the patch says 21 oz. Was this just a mistake on the pair used for those pictures, or do the patches on all the jeans say 21oz? Do the patches on the ones made for The Denim Vault say 21oz or 18oz?
Thanks in advance
Also just want to add, Iron Heart clothing is amazing. I have the 8301s, the super tan belt, and the final denim jacket, and I love all three (the jacket is particularly amazing, words can't do it justice, but let me just tell you that it is as warm, if not warmer, than most of my down winter jackets).

No plans to re-run in the short term. The 01 and the 03 are being re-run atm, but the 02 is selling much slower (for reasons i simply do not comprehend)
Exactly the same
We designed the patch and then decided to run the 18oz raws too. 300 patches is the minimum, so we decided just to go with the original patch -
Simple…02. For said reasons.

i found the 555 a closer fit to the 301 than the 666. the 666 has a larger leg opening (hem) so is roomier from the knee down. the 555 is much smaller in that regard..

Got my 555 02 today, fits just the right tightness in the waist and hips so confident that after sok and then wear thay will stretch back to be bang on. Little concerned at the knee area tho? if I lose much more there they going to be super tight! if i wear them whilst soaking in will that prevent to much soak or just delay shrinkage till the next soak or wash?
Jeans themselves are beauties, nice texture and detail in the denim and they are as stiif as a board!:-)

you are right, the shrinkage will just be delayed and will occur after the next soak/wash (as long you are not in them again)

Post soak I lost an inch in the inseam, about 3/4 inch in the waist and 1/4 inch in the thigh and knee. The fight is tight at the moment but confident with wear it will be bang on. May soak again before I take it in for hemming on the weekend. Thumbs took a battering getting the buttons done up though
