IHXB01 - Beatle Buster 21oz Japanese Selvage Denim Indigo

[Giles]

@xchen:

does the denim on these go through same fade retardant process as the 21oz on the 634s?

All jeans made from 21oz indigo selvedge get the treatment….

[xchen]

Thanks G, you're a gentleman and a scholar!

[Giles]

Haraki offered to do some 21oz with no treatment for me.  I declined, we have enough other alternative denims about or about to be about….

Sugar Mountain and zatenm love your pairs. Wonderful

New guy here. So I have a pair of 634s from 2010 but I'm looking for a slimmer fit. I'm looking at the BB tagged size 30. Will the 29' waist stretch to about 31-31.5"?

[Giles]

Unlikely, 2-2.5" is a stretch too far imo.  I'd go with 31

Thanks for the quick reply. I actually just ordered the 666s. I've been back and forth with the 666s and BBs for a few weeks lol.

[Bluegrass]

big difference!  apple or an orange… both good choices.

G, wearing a 33 in these in the shop? (This time, I couldn't find it written anywhere.)

[Giles]

Yes sir.  Will update the page.  Thanks.

After about a year in some 3sixteens and a bit of pocking and prodding on my part, one of my housemates decided it was time to finally take the plunge into Iron Heart.

This arrived yesterday…

With some Busters inside…

Happy to say, he's fully enamored with them…

[Arabit]

Another convert! Amen! Nice fit on him too

[xtcclassic]

If he's enamored with them now, he'll be worshipping them after he wears them a few weeks and they soften and stretch a bit.

Considering a pair of these over my old 666S jeans that are on their way back to Giles, had a size 30 in those and thinking of doing a 30 or 31 in these. The specifications for the 30's on the shop are literally perfect for me, save for the waist. At 29" with the 30's, they're about 1-2" too snug, but the thigh, rise, and leg opening for the sz30's are on point. So, do I struggle through with the 30's or pussy out and get 31 or 32? Looked into the 555 cut, but the waist would be too big for them to be the right taper style I like, and though I like the 666S cut, I'm pretty tempted to try the classic 21oz denim (finally.)

[xtcclassic]

I had the same dilemma. My size 33's (which originally measured 32") now measure almost 34.5". It can be done, especially with the 21 oz denim, plenty of stretch if you need it.

[mr.dead]

Thats what I was thinking, that way I'll get the 21oz denim, a higher rear rise than on my 666S jeans, and the same leg opening on size.

[TresUnCool]

Really glad I tried these on again after dismissing them as being too small at first.

Thank you 21oz stretch!
