Hey Iron Heartbeaters!
First post here. It’s positively addictive reading all your great posts. Really inspiring, and the craftsmanship of the IH is just beyond.
Curious about the soaking, as I’ve never tried it before. Leave it in the bath for 30 mins, and let drip dry? Would love it if you made a youtube on how to soak. Heard about the bleeding hahaha
Thanks to <napsal>I finally got my legs on a fresh pair of these black babies. Graham recommended I get a w33, as they stretch, and I think you’re bang on. But these w34 are crazy comfy. Plus… I have had to give away my first pair of straight IH w32, and the precious Beatle Buster w34 I can only wear if I do not button up the final button hahah.. the w33 of 461Z are perfect some days, and too tight around the waist others..
So, I put the 555-03 w34 on four days ago and can’t take them off. They’re the most flexible IH pair I’ve ever had. Hoping my belt will keep them in place.
Thank you for you advice, good spirits and have a great day

It would not make for a very exciting video
Pop then in some hot water for 10 or 20 min, agitate a lot, take them out, drip dry.
Some info about shrinkage here….

It would be if you wore a bikini while demonstrating

Just trying to do my part in keeping those weight gain numbers down.

Hahaha… thank you for info and bikini images

@discobeard those look a lot like Red Wing blacksmiths in Hawthorn Muleskinner leather. Had a pair a few years back and they looked identical to Richard’s boots here.
-
I thought they might be rw blacksmiths, but I’m always surprised by how similar different brands can look to my untrained eye. Thanks

Inspired by all the great shots on here, I thought I would opt for black today. Bought these back in September 2018. At that time I had never seen any iron heart in person but when I tore open that parcel from ihuk and these came out, I knew I had something special. Incredible fabric that has just aged fantastically well; amazingly solid construction that means they feel as solid today as they did on day one; and a cut that was new to me (the higher rise and a slim without being skinny leg) but against which all other cuts will be compared to forever more.

@discobeard very nice work
-
Thanks Adam.weirdly, I think it was you who I dealt with back then! You were correct - I was not disappointed
-
That’s impressive! How long did they last? 4 years?
-
@discobeard I think I got them in November 17!
