IH-777S-21 - Super-Slim Tapered 21oz Indigo Selvedge Jean - VERSION 1
-
Thank you very much for your summary. It's very interesting to see your experience since I have the same ''problems'' with my jawnz. With a bigger waist (~38,5) and bigger thighs, long inseam (L34), but slightly smaller calves I prefer a hem of 8 inches for a fitted look. This combination is a tad hard to find on IH. My 2 favorites now are the W38 666S (I love the 18 oz denim) and the W38 777 and I think I might go with the new 777 because the 21-oz-denim is superb in comfort. When choosing other brands / models you can possibly try the Lee 101 Z and Edwin 55, they do have a comfortable top-block and a slight taper for a great look for bigger guys (but I don't think anyone would go back to other brands when they've tried Iron Heart once :).

thanks for the posts @Ragehaver & @den213 not sure if it's still active, but there was a section for real sizes folks wear. Would be great to get your input in there.
oh & Ragehaver I love that you just keep looking for the perfect cut, keep at it
-
How about SE's IH633s? They are straight tapered. Sounds like the ideal specs you may be interested in.
-
I thought that, too.

Thanks @Ragehaver the 38 77s-21 look about perfect on paper for me ….my 634s 36 tapered to 8.7 are unbuttoned with a belt on lol ..the 38 waist and are already at 8.8 hem

Ha yeah, I've had many pairs where I cant get the top button done but the rest of it fits pretty well. Anything that tapers in at the waist (obviously designed that way so your pants don't fall down) doesn't fit me at all.

the 555 looks best to me out of those.
-
I think the loomstates have the best silhouette. I think the reason is the top block is not so tight. The 555 would be second. Again because of the top block. If I were you I would just focus on making sure the waist, rise and thigh fit is on and then let the design of the jean do the rest (even if the hem is a little wide from shortening).

Yeah, I think that and the SEXIH22-301S would be my next pair to try. Thanks!
You are probably built like me. I'm a 38 in the sexih22. At first I was a little me about a slightly looser fit, but they are my favorite jeans now. The fit is great since I have been wearing them for over a month now. Great taper ratio, comfortable thighs and knees. Just wish the waist was slightly smaller… By an inch and a slight more rise. The actual denim is gorgeous too!
Looks like you got plenty of IH to wear though. No idea how you guys can have like 5 pairs of almost the same denim. I got myself one indigo/grey, one black/black and one indigo/black.
I am waiting for 3 pairs though... But how could I say no to 50 per pair fully tailored to my measurements! -
@riffblaster:
the 555 looks best to me out of those.
While I partially agree, it has a TON of fabric in the butt and makes hilarious noise when I walk. They also tend to fall off my waist constantly, unless my belt is uncomfortably tight.
I don't think you have a weird body type at all, the 777 looks best on you and I wouldn't recommend to taper it. The 555 has a too high rise and too slim legs in relation. I've also experienced much noise while wearing these and hated the diaper butt.
-
i also think the 666 looks good and if you got the 21oz it would probably stretch in the waist more than the 18oz.
ok enough derailment! let's see some more fit pics of the 777!
-
@Ragehaver I feel for you dude, but appreciate all the fit flicks.
thanks

No 634?
-
I get the feeling he is looking for a smaller hem than what the 634 offers. I like the way the 777 fits on you Ragehaver. I don't think that the hem is too big at all.
