    First day in 21 oz denim and it's a bit rough going.

    First day ever? Or first day after summer?

        No worries, it will get better and stretch a good amount where needed.

          Congratulations! Dion is right, couple of weeks and you'll be golden. I had my first day in a new pair today for the first time in about three years. After the XHS and UHR it's like walking around in warm milk [emoji28]

            You have experience with walking around in warm milk?  Man Norwegians are interesting people….you are Norwegian right??

              No mate I'm British, just living here. They told me walking in warm milk was normal when I got here!

                😃

                I don't think you should listen to them.

                But yes @setandsetting, the fellas are right.  This 21oz fabric is hands down the most comfortable heavyweight fabric you will find anywhere.  It's amazing how IH makes it so wearable and comfortable at such a.heavy weight.  I hear it's cause they do something super sexy with the weft.  Congratulations btw, it's a great fabric.

                  Thanks guys. I think I just gotta get used to the low rise and hopefully not crush my balls in the meantime.

                          I ended up buying the 777S-21s I wore in the video above… partly because I stretched them out and partly because I couldn't be bothered to strip on the beach for a second time that day.
                          I also felt like a terrible Iron Heart fan since until this pair I've never actually owned any 21oz. Now that's fixed!

                          Loving it too!

                            Good work Sam, they suit you. I love the 21oz. Back in it regularly after a hiatus and it feels goooood.

                              the 21oz is straight up IH OG classic genius.

                                Thanks @neph93 They're super comfortable already. How have you treated yours? Kept them away from water or washed them freely?

                                  I leave washing until there is a permeable odour (how long that it is rather depends), at the first sign of dat smell I wash them, and after that wash freely. It's the best compromise imho. Lovely worn jeans but no one needs stinky clothes.

                                    That was my general feeling. My first pair of IH's were the 555-02 and i waited for almost a year to wash them (after the first soak) and my god the smell after a while! haha… I shouldn't let it be a decision between killer fades and friends.

                                      So I just picked up a pair (;D) of these and not sure if I can/should size down.

                                      I got a size 31 and first wear was snug, but not super tight. After about 3 days of wear (literally lying on the couch doing nothing) they've gotten pretty easy to get into, borderline feeling roomy. Internally debating if I could get a 30 and with the daily cycling I do whether they'd stretch out enough.

                                      Waist is not so much of my concern as is thigh/hip. Sounds like the 21oz stretches where it needs to but curious what people's experience is with thigh/hip areas widening out. Thanks!

                                        Thigh and hip will not stretch much. A third of an inch on the thigh is normal. Sizing down on jeans that fit snug the first go is a  good way to risk an early crotch blow out in my experience.

                                          ^ A legitimate risk, I've got plenty of spare 21oz for repairs at least haha.

                                          My thinking was that given they've already stretched out a lot after very little stress, a size down would stretch out reasonably after a month or so with real life wear vs holiday sloth mode. I'd prefer the slimmer silhouette if I can.

                                          I measured waist & thigh of my size 31's and they came at 32" and 11.5" respectively. Looking at the w31 and w30 dimensions, it feels doable. Although I suppose theres only one way to find out..yikes!
