    Received my pair back from IH last week, freshly hemmed. They fit great. Very happy with this pair. I ended up going with 31" which should give me a bit of leeway in case I want to cuff with boots… They stack great too.

        Tried these on today in Rivet & Hide and surprising they fitted amazingly. Think I have found my next pair.

          The measurements look really good on this one. Debating between this or the 777-142’s

            Yep, sold out in my size again before I had a chance to grab them.

            Any idea if there's a rerun scheduled in the near future @Alex , @Giles ?

                  hi,

                  could someone help me to understand:
                  sometimes I see comments regarding denim, like: 1 year, 5 soak, 1 wash.
                  what does soak mean in this case?

                  i know that I have to do initial soak for unwashed unsanforized denim to shirk it to my fit and make it softer, which means to put jeans to warm water and then take it back.

                  why then peopel do it 5 times? and it looks like they are doing it from time to time.
                  sorry if it is a very stupid question…  ::)

                    That means that the jeans have been worn regularly for a year, they have been soaked in water 5 times and washed with soap and water 1 time. Does that help ?

                    @Bulatik85

                    Maybe so. Maybe not

                      soak, as in the bathtub/bucket/sink (or whatever) instead of a washing machine. A lot of people soak their denim before wearing, including sanforized, to get some shrink out but also to get the starch out. Soaking and washing prolongs the life of your denim.

                        If I understand correctly, you're asking why people soak their jeans, rather than wash them.  Some people believe that soaking helps remove dirt and grime, without removing indigo.  That will cut down on the smell of dirty jeans and help prolong the life of the denim and create high contrast fades.  It's like a very, very, very gentle wash, in theory.  I don't know if it's effective, and I'm too lazy to try it.  I find machine washing to be much less hassle.

                          I have children around me so for Hygiene purpose I soak my jeans every 10 wears with gentle agitation in Dettol water. That effectively removes accumulated dust and sweat, I can tell it is effective because of color of water turning brownish. Jeans come out bit brighter and cleaner but donot loose much color, if you want to preserve color even more you can add vinegar in the water. I wash my jeans once ever 3-4 months when I think I have used it enough in warm weather or is accumulating stains.

                          I also like the fade patterns of jeans that are washed a few times.

                            Thank you for clarification, now I understand.
                            Soak = gentle wash.

                              I tried on this 777 https://www.ironheart.co.uk/bottoms/ih-777s-142.html in a Store in Berlin in Size 33. and it did fit nice.

                              So wich Size would i need for the 21oz Version? They do not sell that jeans there so i would need to order it from here.

                                Use the compare function on the IHUK website to compare the measurements for the two iterations in W33. Choose the size of the 21oz jean that is closest to the IH-777s-142.

                                However, depending on how tight the waist and thighs on the W33 you tried on were, you may wish to size down to allow for the fabric stretching with wear.

                                    Yeah 32 was also my guess. An idea when it will be in stock again?  🙂

                                          I swear I miss these every single time they are restocked.  Only one size 33 on this restock?
