    @Chad  that looks a very good 888 fit to me. The hemming will make them feel much more natural and this is the 21oz denim so the thighs will stretch out a little and relax as will the waist. I’d be very pleased with that fit.

      I think that's a pretty good fit as is, and like neph says, the 21 oz denim is good for some stretch some in the thighs, if you're worried about that area.  They'll settle in nicely after a hem.

        Thank you all for the feedback. Threw them on again this morning and decided to stick with them. Going to get a hem and will report back.

          Why is there nothing on these jeans like the tag that has 21 oz and there is no care stamp on the pocket noticed no pocket stamp on the 1955, I actually like the stamp just like the fleece shirts?

            I guess when I specced them, I either forgot or did not think it important….Lost in the mists of time....

              It's those little details that are part of the reason I and others love Iron heart especially when you consider the high price of iron heart. The flat head has little details like the stamped custom-made brass buckles on the belts and boots. Stamping their logo into their belts and not just using a gold ink stamp that wears off. Sounds petty I know.

                I too like and appreciate the stamp on the pockets of IH bottoms. Just like the hidden selvedge fly it adds character but can only be seen by the wearer himself.

                  Hey All,

                  Hoping for some honest feedback:
                  I recently discovered the 888 to be the most comfortable fit, due to my thick thighs, but wondering if straight cuts are really my only option…

                  As you can see in the pics, the taper below the knee (from the side) causes a ‘carrot’ looking silhouette.

                  I also have some 634s which I love, but the leg opening on them feels closer to a boot cut.

                  Any suggestions or feedback? Size up? Different cut?

                  Thank you!

                    Those look pretty great on you,don’t get /see the carrot silhouette thing from the side view. Since the jeans aren’t baggy in the thighs you seem to be the body type they had in mind when this cut was originally envisioned.

                      Fit looks good to me. But then again 888 is my current favorite cut.

                        Working out how a new pair of jeans will look before they are worn for a while and washed is a perennial issue.

                        I think these look fine on you and will only get better as they mould and soften.

                        The oft-cited "diaper butt" is almost always because the wearer does not understand what will happen with wear.  If I worried how my arse looked in a new pair of jeans, I'd be wearing spandex pants now…..

                          Dude, that's a really good-looking fit. If it looks this nice when the fabric is still new, it will be perfect once it settles. Personally, I don't get the carrot-vibes in the slightest from that, and I'm a) brutally honest as well as b) really sensitive to the carrotness.

                          So thumbs up from me!

                              @Ceeds I'm in agreement with everyone else.  The cut looks damn good on you and no carrot cut look at all.  Ultimately you're the one that has to be happy with them but they look terrific, really.

                                I'm trying to visualize the carrot look but i'm not seeing it from your pics either.

                                        First let me say: those look great, and this is definitely the cut for you.

                                        As for carrot-fit vibes, I don’t get them—but I almost never do, and I don’t see the problem, anyway. What is everyone’s objection to a relaxed top block with an aggressive taper. I really like that look. Might be because my “assets” can fill out even the most relaxed fit at the top, though.

                                          Hey guys, apologies if this has been asked and answered already but, what with the bigger rise compared to the 634s, did you guys make any adjustments to your standard hem length on these?  If I like my 634s hemmed to 34”, should I get these hemmed to 33”?

                                          Blanket-line all the things!!!
