        Very, very nice denim. Great choice.

          Well, they have had a fair bit of weekend wear for a few weeks.
          Whilst they are comfy to walk about in they are stil tight when bending to put socks on etc' especially tops of thighs and behind the knee.
          Will persistance win the day or will they ever soften up?

            I’m about 60 days of wear into the tapered version. They had an initial hot soak with agitation to get the shrinkage out. They soften beautifully and loosen up very well. But you have to use them. Wear them like you hate them and it will happen.

                Sure, to start with. That is relative though… snug waist and top block certainly. Tight in the thigh.

                  So have those areas given in? 😃

                    Absolutely. You will always get an inch in the waist, and the hips and thighs have softened a lot. As I said initially, very comfortable now.

                      Hi! My name's Greg. I'm a new member but long time lurker of the IH forums. I live in Manchester, UK with my partner and our 3 daughters. I've got a few IH shirts now the most recent purchase being the IHSH-247-RED but I pretty much live in my 177 CPO right now as it's great for layering and the days (and nights) are getting pretty cold here. I'm looking forward to sharing some pics and talking to some fellow denimheads! You guys seem to have a really cool community vibe going on here.

                        Welcome, Greg!

                        I love the 177!  It just started cooling down enough in California for me to start wearing it again.

                        Blanket-line all the things!!!

                              Welcome to the forum.

                              For such a specific request I recommend you send an email to shop@ironheart.co.uk.

                              The staff at IHUK are members here and often contribute, but the customer service guys who will measure will see your request much quicker there.

                                New here, but not to the denim world, currently in Portland, OR.

                                Joined because I have some IH-633s-II sz.31 that are a bit too small, looking to trade for a size up or a higher rise fit. Also interested in medium/large tops depending on fit, hit me up if interested!

                                    Thanks! Breaking in a pair of 888s right now, have a IH-526PJ coming tomorrow. Love this 21 oz denim.  Hope it fits!  😉

                                      @Buffoonery_ 21oz is a lot of people's first love when it comes to IH and rightly so. I'm enjoying a new-ish pair at the moment after seven years in the game, and my overdyed 21oz type III is probably my oldest IH item still in service.

                                      Let us know how you get on with the jacket.

                                        Name's Paul.  New to the denim world and just grabbed a pair of the IH-9461Z's, the Purple Rain Western shirt, and a pair of Indigofera Hawk Gunpowder jeans.  Absolutely loving the shirt and 21oz denim, toasty warm here in Berlin.  The jeans are still breaking in but super comfy and I cant wait for them to be fully broken in!

                                            Hi, made a few posts but yet to introduce myself. I'm on the south coast of Australia and I fell into the denim rabbit-hole after deciding I needed my first leather jacket. Much 'research' on the Fedora Lounge led me to conclude I needed to improve my jeans game as a first priority and six months later I'm pretty familiar with those lovely brown paper bags. It's great gear of course, but the main draw for me has been the detailed sizing charts and the extra-mile customer service. Clever, IH, very clever 😉

                                            It's just fun to be aware of what you're wearing and the long satisfying road to wearing it in. I get it now! Nice community here too.
