                hello my Iron Heart brethren. Me and some buddies have been making leather goods for a few years now and just got together to start a little something up.  Im not trying to get sales, im genuinely interested in the opinions of the forum members here, so I would love to hear some feedback on what could improve, what sucks, what you like, etc thru PM. Ive been part of this forum for a long time now and have grown to genuinely appreciate and value the opinions of those who post on here. Dont worry about hurting my feelings be honest!  Thanks so much guys. (sorry for cross posting if you read this twice)

                  hello,

                  I intend to order a IH in the evening, I already have two beatle buster
                  IHXB01XOD in a size 31 length 31.5
                  and IHXB01 length in size 31 31.5
                  though they be relaxed to the size it fits me
                  otherwise I also wears a size 31 in S710 SAMURAI (slightly tighter at the size 2 BB)
                  ps: I am 76 cm waist

                  I hesitate between four models
                  Here they are:
                  -IHxB01sbgII in size 30 (76.2 cm) length 31
                  -IHxB01xRAW in size 30 (77.5 cm) length 32
                  IH-666SB in size 29 (76.2) 31 length
                  IH-666S in size 29 (78.7) 32 length

                  for information I just sell a IH-555-02 size 29 (78.7 cm) length 31

                  Unfortunately it was impossible for me to get into it, too tight on the thighs and knees (I should order the size 30)

                  which do you recommend?

                    If you want a slimmer version than the Busters you have, try the 666Sin size 30. But if your inseam is 31.5", I'd have them hemmed to 33" pre-soak… You can always have it hemmed again after some wear and washed.

                      IH-666S in either 29/30 is OUT. The thigh is going to be too small. The 555-02 has a 11.0 inch thigh. IH-666S sz 30 is 11.1 pre-soak
                      IHxB01xRAW sz 30 has a 11.2 inch thigh, pre-soak, so also out

                      I suggest IH-634SV sz 30.

                          after reflection my choice will be the IHxB01sbgII on a size 30 (76.2 cm) long and 31.

                          when do you think if I had to compare the IHxB01xod in size 31 (76.2 cm)?

                              Exactly. If the starting size is near the same and it's the same denim/raw, same result will occur.

                                Anyone a UK 10 in Viberg want to try my Oxfords to see if they tickle your fancy? (If they do, we can work something out after the fact.) I've been trying to get rid of these things for too long and am willing to try anything at this point.

                                ***Needless to say I'd prefer you have an actual interest so that shipping fees aren't just being thrown around.

                                ***Also, so there aren't any Barun repeats, you'll need to be fairly well-known around these parts.

                                          and it isn't really sure if they'll pay for the shipping…will have that sorted as soon as the tv landed and after they've checked...

                                          can't really imagine what the shipping costs will be 😠
