    Fufu be sure to measure your favorite jeans "the Iron Heart way" - maybe you already did - just to be sure you are truly a 30". If you are a true 30, it sounds like the 29 (=31) would work well for you in this denim. The only other caution is, check the thigh measurement - if you are a bicycle rider or weight lifter or just have muscular legs, these tend to be very fitted in the thigh and that could be a reason to consider sizing up 1".

            I really like this cut but am worried about the thigh being too tight.  How much do these shrink/stretch in the thigh?

              My experience is they shrink up to 1/4-1/2" max, and don't stretch back much - so be cautious when you make your selection… Measure some jeans you like "the IH way" - and measure around your thigh too just to be sure.  If you try to cut it too close you might be disappointed.  Or if you have muscular/big thighs this may not be the best cut for you.

                Spent an hour and a half at DC4 today and ended up getting a pair. I really, really like the fit which is surprisingly not as slim as I had thought (a good thing in this case). Went with my 634s size (36" waist) Gonna give them a soak when I get back home and hope that they'll work out perfect. Everything else will be no problem, but I'm a bit worried about the thighs - anyhow I'm quite sure they'll end up just fine (if they stretch back to a tad under or presoak width they'll be perfect). Had no problems whatsoever with the 634s:s but I guess these will give me that proper IH break-in period 🙂

                I was initially going to get another pair of the 634s from Hachioji but now I can have the best of both worlds I guess 🙂 If these need a hemming I'll get it done at IHHQ 🙂

                AIAN HA-TO!

                    Haha, used my mom's washing machine and did a 40-degree wash without a spinning cycle to get the most of the shrink out. Blue hands and a huge smile - these will turn out great! I'll get them hemmed at DC4 before we go back home 🙂 I got about an inch off in the waist and two in length, the thighs are a-ok.

                      Fix it now, Chewie.  I'm a big proponent of preventive maintenance.  You can do it yourself with a needle and thread, shouldn't take more than 10-15 minutes.

                        I'm with Chris on doing it now… Taking a few minutes with needle and thread is an easy DIY fix where as if that goes unattended too long you will likely have to take it in for professional repair unless you are handier than me

                          Thanks guys, just fixed it just now. was easier than i thought. Except getting the needle thru the center (was super thick)

                          Probably also saved me from an embarrassing moment since the seam looked like it could blow out at any moment. 🙂

                            Nice one chewie, getting in the and preventing blowouts is a great step. Your jeans are going to have many more months/years of happy wear, and indeed they've become one step more yours 🙂

                                  I never understand why people ask if they should hem or not! Surely you can see you need too.

                                    I would go for a hem or cuff sir. Just my opinion though, wear them as you like

                                          I think 2" is a good bet, I might do more, but it's hard to tell based on the pictures.
