      Shoot. “Severe weather delay” won’t be here till tomorrow now.

      To make you feel better, If you were based in Europe you’d receive it sometime next week. 😎

        If you changed Europe to Finland, you would be half accurate.

          Which half though?

          I think ups is similarly awful for blokes in Norway & Sweden as well, raising the accuracy of my statement to at least 66%, perhaps?

              For most of mainland Europe, UPS standard is 2 working days.  Unfortunately for some in the extreme north, extreme south and extreme east that stretches to 3 working days.

              We are working on adding a costed option at check-out to allow customers to select a pimped shipping service.

                  So, apparently the denim just needed to finish drying in order to shrink a bit more (the waist was a little damp when I first took my post-soak measurements).  Here are my new pre-soak/post-soak numbers on a tag 31:

                  pre-soak:

                  • waist:  32"
                  • thigh: 12.65"
                  • inseam: 36"

                  post-soak:

                  • waist:  31.5"
                  • thigh: 12.25"
                  • inseam:  35.5"

                  Blanket-line all the things!!!

                    1 soak 1 very light machine wash, hemmed by IH Crew, very little shrinkage, super happy with the fit. The denim is amazing. Thanks to all the Ironheart crew for their  patience and great customer service. I am a very happy boy [emoji41][emoji106] even the buttons are ok now 🥵

                      Yes, this thread is shaping up to be excellent but more fit-pics wouldn’t go amiss.

                      I'm going to give mine another 24 hours to finish shrinking (LOL) then they're off to get hemmed.  Hopefully get some fit pics posted next week.

                        ^ wonderful fit @Chad mac  and really very good with the shirt.

                        While I’m at it, thanks everyone for documenting the shrinkage. I’m pushing my luck with the waist on my pair after sizing down so it is good to see what I can expect when they get here.

                        This is a brilliant thread so far.

                          Great fit, Chad!  Dang, you were right on target with the hemming.  I didn't have them hemmed because I had no idea how much they'd shrink with a bath.  Did yours shrink at all in the inseam?

                            That shirt… seriously the one that got away! Anyways, everyones fits are looking good. I'm only here as the 555XHSib thread is quiet.

                            Ohhhhhh that constitutional stitching!

                              I didn’t do any official measurements but had them hemmed long then did the soak and gentle wash then re hemmed as per Alex’s advice. I don’t think there was hardly any shrinking but had an interesting discussion today that US washing machines tend to run hotter. I’m very fortunate to live close to IHUK headquarters, 🥴

                              Mind you after today I’ve asked them to ban me, I’m running out of organs [emoji51]

                                  I was meant to be on a year long ban, but needed a pair of lightweight jeans for the summer as going to Texas… so I had to break the ban. So i'll be asking to be banned starting now.

                                        Ha ha, not what I meant… the 25oz were meant to be my last and then I bought a pair of 14oz today. So it's not going to well.

                                          I didn't soak first, but with just 1 day of wear, it's evident that I could have gotten away with sizing down one more size… though I did get the largest waist measurement for my size
