      xx-009 are very interesting too me.  The fit seems similar to a 634s.

        @thpcgr:

        I finally picked up my AI-002 from take5.  NO 24 oz yet so I have to hit them again in June or so.

        Soooo.. I got a size 34….  glad I did...  POST SOAK it's a SIZE 32!!!  Man, it shrunk so much, it shrunk more then my 005 in a size 33. 
        It was a HOT soak @ 60C.  Color change was very insignificant post soaking, Just a super tiny hint lighter.

        If I were to compare fit between the 005 and AI-002, the AI feels a tad more fitted and proportions a little better then the 005. The top block is a little more snug but the thighs a tiny bit looser and more comfortable.  With a few more days wear lets see how much these stretch out...
        ...

        I got the TPJ-510 in W33 which are essentially a XX-005 and they ended up being about a size too big after a hot soak. (contemplating a really hot soak in order to find out if I can get some further shrinkage out…)

        So, when buying the AI-002 I opted for W32 hoping to get a better post-soak fit. Will do pre-soak pics and measurements as well as soaking and post-soak measurements later this week...

              The first of 2 24oz models came in today at BIG, it is the XX-013 24oz. Gordon told me he'd post a pic today, so go check it out. It is raw, so I wonder how much it will weigh when washed and shrunk. PBJ makes awesome pants, (almost) on a par with IH. In the pipeline is a 24oz version of the truly fantastic XX-007 deep indigo model. That one, I'm getting most definitely.

                I am thankful they only did the 24oz denim in their skinny cuts because I would be heavily tempted by the 003 cut!

                        Just received the 013 24oz model. It is a fucking beauty. The blue is amazing, the stiffness is out of this world. I could barely flezx my legs when I rode my motorcycle back home!

                        the fit is great, although I think I should have taken the straight rather than the slim model because I have thighs and ass of a former rugby player… But man, I can tell the fade is going to be fantastic like the 007.

                          Can you please take fit pics?.. I'd go for the 007 model though, but would love to see some real pics nonetheless…

                              Dear Seul + Jimmy:

                              I am sorry to inform you I will not post fit pix of another brand on IH's forum. I hardly ever post fit pix of IH stuff, and I think it would be impolite to use IH's site to big up another brand by posting their pix. I hope you understand.

                              Trust me, the pants are very nice. Maybe Gordon at BIG has fit pix or maybe PBJ directly (very nice people, btw).

                              May Jah bless you and kill your enemies.

                                  actual I think that the chances are way below zero, that after posting a fit pic of PBJ's or any other brand, will stop fellows here around from buying IH stuff….

                                      No decent brand would care of been compared as it would only make them either look better or step up their game. win win IMO

                                      your decision after all and i respect that.

                                          i don't see how fit pics would be impolite to ironheart considering it would be posted in a section titled "other denim & garment brands" or "fit pics of other brands".  if it is impolite then what would be the point of even having an other denim section at all?  i can't imagine anyone at IH would be offended.

                                          PUT DOWN THAT STARBUCKS, PICK UP THAT GNARBUCKS!!

                                            definitely would love to see fit pics.  I just hate how they choose 3 cuts for this new denim and all three, for a size 32, have smaller than 8.5 knees.  😠 😠 😠 😠
