      SE measure differently from IH and RH which will account for some of the discrepancy.  There is variance between individual jeans which will account for the rest.  If you place an order with us, we'll automatically engage you in conversation about finding the best fitting pair for you.

        Well, each one of those companies takes their measures in slightly different manners.  Additionally, these are items made by hand and have slight variations from pair to pair.  So quite possibly, they're all "right".

        That said, review the "How We Measure" section here on the forum, practice a couple of times on your own jeans to get a better conception of their methodology and how the numbers correlate to how you like things to fit.  And trust Iron Heart. They're very, very careful about being accurate and consistent.  I've had less success with Self Edge.  No experience with R&H, so I won't say anything bad about Danny and the boys. 😉

        EDIT: Giles said it better and faster than I did.  Bastard.

            Thanks for the replies, my thought is this i need a true 40 inch waist,my 301s waist 38 was actually a size 39 after wearing them they stretched out one inch,to a perfect fitting 40 inch waist.I'm thinking the same can be done with the beatles.My other option is the 666 18oz raw,in a 40 inch waist, after soaking should shrink 1 inch then i can stretch them back to a 40.I am ready to pull the trigger just need help making my decision.I love the 21 oz denim,never had a raw pair and the 18 oz 666 sounds interesting.

              Logic is good.  I'll throw the IH-666S-21 into the mix too….

                These are absolutely amazing jeans.  No need to presoak these right?

                              How is that achieved? This looks engineered, as if someone sanded the creases or something.

                              Well, they are what i would call the "typical" indonesian fade. Many stacks, crazy contrast, small waist compared to the legs. They are totally different from vintage fades, but show dedication and passion. Good Job!

                                  Decided to snap a couple pics of my beloved yet oft-neglected Busters whilst I await today's delivery of my new 666-XHS…

                                    So i've decided to buy my first pair of iron hearts and was just wondering how much the beatle busters stretch in the waist. I normally wear a size 32" waist so i'm hesitant on whether i should get the 32" which actually measure 31" and stretch them out or should i go with the 33" which actually measure 32". If the 32" stretch out to an actual 32" that would be perfect and i dont want the 33" to stretch out much bigger than they already are. any suggestions? thanks.

                                      You can easily get 2" of stretch from the 21 oz denim. You'll be fine with the size 32's.

                                            quick sizing question. What are my chances of getting a size 33 that measures closer to 32 and not the 32.8 listed in the sizing info? Both my pairs of my tagged 31 3sixteen measure 32.5 and I don't think I could make the thighs work if I sized down in these.
