anyone grabbed a pair of these:

they look kind of awesome, but wanted to hear from someone on the Iron Heart train in terms of quality goods. . .
Here's mine. I love them and they're definitely built well. I sized wrong and they're a little bigger than I'd like but still plan on getting a lot of wear out of them. They're currently on the back burner because of my Black Marias.
I'm wearing these for the DWC and also for Left Fields fade contest.

I based it off the size charts of these and a pair of greasers I tried on and ordered 1 size bigger because the greasers were tight. It was all based on an impression I needed a much bigger thigh measurement than I thought so it's entirely my fault.
I was able to size my Black Marias perfectly though.

Size 32. Fits a 33. Not sure whether they've been washed. Must've been since the inseam is supposedly 36.5 but is more like 33"… Weird... Also, the colour is different (brighter)...
Fabric is great, pockets are stellar, fit + cut is perfect to work in... Glad I didn't pay full price (I paid 140$ and they're as good as new), but you could definitely do worse... Wouldn't advise this to people with a long inseam though...

awesome fit @Seul Brother Numero Uno.
Too bad green trousers don't work for me at work @ I agree the fabric is awesome on them & the hoodie & boots looks pretty awesome as well.
one of the best fits I've seen from you actually . . .although the good fit seems to have distorted your snout & such
-
fabric looks awesome.
thanks for the response & information Pig-Boy

I'm looking at the Left Field Miner in Indigo Raw- looking for help on the sizing.
I realize they have them up on the site in detail but I went into Freeman in Seattle to try on and the Tan Miners http://www.freemanseattle.com/collections/left-field/products/left-field-miner-chino-caramel-duck they had in 30 were actually tighter than the Kerouacs that I also tried on. I actually went back and they measured at 11" on the thigh, not close to the 11.75" posted on the LF site.
I've got a narrower waist but def some thighs. I wrote LF and got a response but Christian hasn't/won't respond to my asking for measurements on the thigh given my experience at Freeman.
Anyone have this version of the Miner and can help out? Annnnd how much should I expect these to shrink on cold wash, hang dry since they are raw?
Thanks!

Finally decided to get a new pair of ducks since I had some extra cash begging to be spent….ha.
I can't wait to see them in person tomorrow when I get them. Olive 13oz duck Miners, should be a great fit with a little extra room in the thigh compared to my IH, but only a little(so perfect).
If they are as good as I hope, I will post some up close pictures in a few days. Been dying for some olive ducks. Would love some ox blood duck jeans!

Just got the miner pants in….and what can I say but perfect fit, great hue to the olive, quite comfy for canvas and it seems to have a looser weave than compared to the LoomBreakers. These I believe are in between the LB and my Norman Porter duck pants I have. The NP are 12oz and these LF are 13oz....but the 13oz have a slightly more rigid and tighter weave(which I like). Just hope not too tight they won't be nice for the hot summer days.
I will also say, I have the duck that is on the IHJ 29(17oz) and the 13oz only sleems slightly lighter than the 17s feel and flexibility. So I really like this duck!
And these seem they will fade beautifully. Just the edges that have seen wear from making/processing have good contrast, can't wait to put in a good 3 weeks worth of wear!
Great fit! Fit right in with my IH 634s(tapered service about 9.25" knee and 8.5" hem).

Actually got lucky and had time while waiting for a client to snap a few quick ones
Looks good with the 126. I can't wait to wear the 64 in grey with it!
So goooooood
-
I have the same pair of LF olive duck miner chinos too - I really like the cut and the fabric, a very nice pair of strides indeed.

Looks like Iron Heart sold some of their 92 material! I noticed this today while working with my 92 on
Now LF says its a 10oz pocket though…but it is DARN close to the 92, awesome!
-
While I am loving my ducks and new 14oz indigo indigo greaser jeans, the greasers back pocket potions aren't that great IMO….they are pretty much dead center and my ass don't like my wallet that I never really feel with my IH. Great little feature I never noticed really with my IH...the boss is smart!
The greasers rise is so perfect though, pants stay up an no need to tetuck my shirt even with all angles of bending over. Plus my nuts are more comfy ha.

Coming along nicely. One of my favorite bottoms to throw on.

I am still absolutely loving my olive miners and my black 12oz miners are my go to summer pants as they breath so nicely and are durable! Never had a pair of pants or jeans that can handle the summer heat/humidity and still take the abuse. I hope to see 10oz or maybe slightly lighter sometime in the future from Left Field, their cuts are PERFECT for me.
It is amazing how the cone mills 12oz feels so much lighter and breath better than the japense 13oz duck. The 13oz breaths pretty well, but the 12 is simply excellent. I am guessing it is down to the tightness of the weave. Which is why I have no idea how the 12s are so durable if they are looser.
-
These are tough ducks! I am pretty sure I wore these more than any IH denim/pant or my other Left Field pants. Tons of life left! Another year and the fades will be really good haha.

I think these guys need a bath tomorrow. One of my fav go to summer pants.

Still drying outside. They did give off a good bit of indigo.
