        irishexpat and daynym - Fit looks great on both, the only thing that's holding me back from ordering is the talk about the tight top block.  Just how tight are they and can you get your hands in the pockets ok?

        thank you. the top block aint that tight. But I wouldn' t size down from your usual ih size.

        why so serious?

            Just got my first pair of IH.  Gotta say, kudos to the guys at IH, great customer service and shipped to California in 2 days.

            Nice little touch for Christmas.

            Fit pic.  I think it's a great fit right now, might size down 1 next time. Interested to see how they break in.

              very nice busters…

              I have a pair of 23oz Lee’s, but IH BB’s are by far best jeans I’ve ever seen… IH denim is just so fluffy!

                  hey got my first pair of BBs yesterday but way too tight i could not close the top button  😠
                  i am going to exchange but would like some advice in 6' and weigh about 185lbs i normally wear 33-34 ordered 33s they like i said were wayyyyyyyy to tight in the waist but fit perfect everywhere else in debating what size to get now I'm worried the 34 in this cut will be too tight still but there is no 35 and I'm worried the 36 will be too big. the 33s i could get all but the top button closed and i know they will stretch 1~2 inches so do i gamble with the 34 and some stretch? or just go to the 36???

                  P.S. is it normal that the pocket openings are super tiny? i could barely get my hands into them. Do the get larger with larger sizes?

                  Thanks for any advise and hope to become a larger part of this forum

                    I have the 34… I usually wear 34… my BB’s measured 33’’ when new, but they stretch so much I have to wear a belt…

                    My personal advice: if they fit everywhere but the waste, keep them. If you wear 33-34 and you got 33 than they currently measure 32 now, but they will stretch to 34 (+) to fit beautifully like an indigo long staple cotton glove. If you do size up though, 34 will do the trick. I would say there is no reason to go as big as 36… Pockets are tiny on my BB's too… Maybe Japanese people have small hands?

                    BTW: nice evo unfairgunfight

                      Thanks a lot i think I'm going to go with 34 if i could get that bastard top button closed id probably keep them but really appreciate the quick response

                        Yes, I'd go with 34. And I too noticed the pocket openings are small-ish across all models of IH jeans.

                          It's done on purpose to make the fit more flattering.  There are 2 exceptions:  1955S and IH-634S-V

                            my 34 which was 33" is now 34,5 and I do wear those with a belt.

                            why so serious?

                              Cool, that’s good to know… yes, my BB’s are the most flattering cut I’ve ever had on. Also no pocket fades… My Lee’s have massive pocket fades. That being said might also have to cop the 55’s…

                                just gave my 21oz BB another wash, so figured i would post a few photos.
                                owned ~ 2yr, worn ~ 1 yr, washed ~10-15 times (really dunno)
