@Max:

@sabergirl if they're not impossible to wear I'd keep them - they look great!

Thanks, y'all! I'm gonna give 'em a go. Comfort is usually my number one, so I'll know very quickly if I can hang, or not. Took them off for the evening, as I needed a break. But I'll be back at it, tomorrow!

I agree, they look good. If you can wear them now then keep them. Just always cold soak/wash

[sabergirl]

My wife (and dog) were very intrigued by my buttoning efforts this morning. The glove totally helps, lol.

They look great! Better than great, even!
Thank you for the offer SG. Some unexpected pet costs are going to delay my IH acquisitions for a time. Maybe there will still be a pair around when I'm ready.

[sabergirl]

Thanks! I hope your pet is okay. These are getting more livable by the minute. I think I'm in jeans-love, again.

That's great to hear! I'm pleased for you [emoji4]

Just got mine (holy cow - 2 day International shipping?! Freaking awesome, Iron Heart Team..)

Anyways - mind blown. Measurements are spot on. My 6th pair of IH, and probably going to be my favorite after my 634 ODs. I can't wait to get home and start wearing them. Although not super tight on me, I will attest that the top button was still a mutha to get closed the first time.

I got a 33 and it fits almost identical to my 633 21 oz in 32 if that helps anyone on the fence as I see there's still a 33 left!

I soaked my pair after wearing them for a few days. Did it in the tub, cold, for about 45 minutes. They definitely tightened up a little bit in the thigh and knee, and maybe lost about 1/2" in the inseam. I didn't notice much shrinkage in the waist or rise. They were incredibly stiff when they dried and developed a slightly more hairy texture than they had before. The seams embedded themselves noticeably into the fabric as well. Overall, I could hardly be more satisfied. They are without a doubt my favorite pair of jeans.

@Maizenblue  Sounds good. Wear and enjoy :).

These took a dunk today. Got them a few days ago but have today off to give them some love. The fit was great pre soak.  But I wanted to give them the shrink they needed. I did a hot soak to get the most out of it. Looking forward to spending many days in these. I'll post fit pics as soon as I can. It's currently snowing in PA though…

I hot soaked mine today, not much indigo in the water afterwards but while I wore them before the soak they shed indigo like crazy where I sat down. I'll wear them for a few days once they dry by tomorrow.

They feel great. I love the cut. Need to settle down a bit. But a week or so of wear will get them where they need to be. Absolutely love this denim too. I can tell there will be some decent vertical fading as well. It's a nice weave, breathable, and just the right amount of subtle slub. I can't wait to see everyone pictures a year from now.

I found them to be much more breathable than the XHS,having a much easier time breaking them in.

[Fadez]

@Jett129 Yes, I'm finding that too… Whatever they did, total amazement 

[mikebarhoot]

fadez, those look like a perfect fit after the soak.  Well met!

[Dion]

Yes, the fit is spot on and the dark colour is looking awesome!

[Fadez]

@mikebarhoot  @Dion  Thanks guys!

[mpukas]

@Fadez - thnx for posting fit pics. You wear them well!

On a side note, you're wearing the size I would get, and I don't think I'd be able to wear such slim thighs…
