      @sabergirl, @LewisStonehouse, @neph93 thanks a lot. I chose 634. After I get the first IH jeans, I will at least understand the descriptions of the qualitative comparative characteristics here on the forum.
      IH customer support turned out to be absolutely useless for me many times.

      Another question for experienced people.
      I want a shirt that is as close as possible in quality and color to IH-634-XHS indigo jeans. Prompt me please.

        Firstly I find this very surprising as most people consider IH customer support to be legendary and amongst the best they have experienced in any retail setting.

        Secondly, you should know that this is an in house forum and the owners, managers and staff of the brand are here all the time. In fact @Giles who owns the International end of the business and started this forum, answered one of your questions in this forum recently.

        I doubt that they will miss your comment when you make the text small and grey, and if you are dissatisfied with their customer service, I’m sure they would be interested in hearing about any problems you have had.

        XHS is 25oz denim and entirely unsuitable for shirting. The heaviest IH denim shirt is the IHSH-293-IND at 18oz. It is made of excellent denim.

          @EB50:

          When and why did the 555-02 become extinct?  Does that denim still exist in other cuts?

          It went extinct because that particular 18oz denim is no longer produced. It has been superceded by the 18oz vintage denim, but not used on the 555 cut yet.

            @kornnn I will second what @neph93 has stated.  IH Customer Service is just about unmatched in the industry.

            Would you be able to elaborate where you think that they were not helpful?

            Did you email them?

            Only post to the forum?

            Did you use the chat feature on the web-shop?

            I really hope that you give them a second chance, as they have been more than helpful to me and many, many others.

            I wish you the best of luck with your new jeans and hope that they are what you are looking for.

              1. I have an effort to write in English. Therefore, I write succinctly. I'm trying to be as understandable as possible. And I appreciate the time and mine and yours.
              Because you helped me earlier, I will answer specifically to you about customer service.

              I have no complaints about anyone. I am glad to those who understand the essence of my questions and not just some words from my questions. I got a lot of different answers from different people. But only the three of whom I thanked understood what it was about.

              I am not a legend destroyer. I am not offended by anyone. I did not reproach anyone here. I'm not trying to get anyone's attention.
              I don't get into someone else's business. And I'm not attacking anyone.

              I wrote only what is in my reality.

              Let any legends live happily ever after.

              I am only interested in very simple things here. I am trying to find jeans and a shirt. It's all. Emotionless.

              2. Thank you very much for another helpful answer.

                  @kornnn from your posts here and your emails to the customer service guys your English seems excellent, but if you find it easier, our retailer Ze Fear is based in St Petersburg. The owner, Evgeny, stocks the XHS denim in many cuts.

                    I have already looked at a lot of things on the forum but did not find something.

                    1. Is there a discussion somewhere about pairing shirts and jeans? I want to match the tops and them from the same denim if possible.
                    2. Is there a discussion somewhere about the use of IH clothing by women? Conditionally female models exist?

                      @kornnn I think when it comes to styling there’s no substitute to looking and seeing why you like, and a bit of trial and error. One of the excellent things the guys at IHUK will generally do if you ask is have one of the team try on an outfit for you to see how things go together (I believe there’s a thread for that but I can’t remember what it’s called @neph93?).

                      On pairings with 25oz jeans, if you’re specifically looking for a shirt in hat fabric you’ll never find one in 25oz because it’s not practically possible to manufacture them (as I understand it). The standard 12oz shirt in indigo would go well, as would the 18oz CPO in indigo. I suppose one of the brilliant things about jeans is that more or less anything goes with them, so have fun choosing your own adventure.

                        I don’t think there is. It is a subject that has been discussed, but in individual product threads. The only options for exactly matching denim shirts and jeans is combining the IHSH-292-IND with the IH-666s-18 or IH-634s-18, or the IHSH-295-IB with the IH-634-14ib.

                        There are a number of active forum members who are women. Look at @RoxRocks86 WAYWT posts for example. Otherwise you can check the Japanese IG accounts. There is a thread on which shirts are available in women’s sizing, but many women choose the regular shirt models.

                          25 ounces is not necessary at all and I did not write about it. I'm looking for just the same fabric for jeans and a shirt.

                          @neph93 And again what I needed. Thanks!

                            You can also combine 12oz wabash shirts and trousers.

                                    waist seems really small on a size 33. I did email and ask for a set of measurements done the IH way but was told no. 😠

                                            Obviously it’s so much more than that ad I’m being facetious, but whenever I’ve tried to explain it the other person usually look a bit perplexed
