IH-301S

thinkin about pickin up a pair of 301s indigo but have one main concern…I know ppl said the loose weave allows for better ventilation but, can anyone shed light on how they compare to flathead f380's(i own a pair, so i wanted a reference)? Im a city guy so i go to a lot of bars/clubs and im afraid that I might be drenched in sweat with 21oz jawnz after a nite out...its either these or a pair of FH BSP's

IMO breathe better. G

…totally my bad G. fixed my initial post

Giles

No. all I meant was the 21oz IH denim breathes better than the 3xxx denim…G

IHs are a lot more comfortable. Them being 21 oz doesn't mean you'll be 'hotter' or anything… I've had BSPs and loved them, but prefer my SEXIH01s (301s are a slim cut as well so they're similar)...

I've been lurking here for a while an putting off signing up, but davichan's post made me do it.

@ Davichan, I have a very similar experience, got 301s-07bk 1.5 mos ago, loved them, had to squeeze etc… Went for 301s 2 weeks ago and your description is right on.

I looked at the tag inside the jawns and found that the OD tag, while hard to read, says W 31. Since they were unsanforized 31's (and probably measured 33" or so pre-overdye) the OD shrinks them to a re-measured 32, whereas the sanforized 301s is just that, a sanforized W32.

All in all both are excellent IMO.

heres some pics of my 301s.
ive been wearing them constantly for over a month and they are developing some nice fades already.if you dont have one already you def should.they are simply the best slim fitting jeans imo.

happy halloween everyone

Question about sizing…so my worn F380's measure 18" across the waist....should I purchase a size 34 and let it stretch 2 inches or get a size 36. Note that I have an athletic lower half, and would like to slightly sag a little more than my f380's allow. Also, i know these are slim jeans, but i dont want them skin tight. Really wish they made size 35....wat da ya think?

Beatle

check thigh measurements. might help making a decision. not always is the waist alone the answer

SepticSef

also the 301s are realtively tight around the ankle…..

rmc

thnx for the help. so i was luckily able to actually try on my friends pair of month old 301s tday, and loved the knee down fit…my calves had just enough room. problem was i was experiencing some hip flare...does ih denim sit a lot better on the waist over time?

cowsareforeating

sorry would you please define hip flare? im not sure i quite understand. are you referring to how the hip thigh area drapes? IMO a new pair of 301's if you hot soak and hang dry and if you wear them when slightly damp will provide an ungodly (in the good way) fit. no problems with hip area bulging out or anything like that

Giles

zero hip flare

fiuhh, finally i have the 301S. hot enough if you wear it in Indonesia.

zubin

is selfedge the only stockist for the 301sBK?

i have been trying for months to get a pair of them but they NEVER have them in my size. Are you guys expecting to do another run of the 301bks? I know theres a ton of new cuts coming out and this might be pushed to the backburner

Giles

SE are the only place that sell them. We make them when Kiya requests…..........

zubin

ahhh i see

gonna have to bug kiya next time im in the city
