IH-777-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo/Black

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

This denim is probably my favorite ever from Iron Heart. That cobalt blue these get reminds me of something like PBJ except Iron Heart's is way heavier and smoother/shinier and softer. It's not to be missed. Every single TSA pat down I get, the officers remark on how heavy they are and if I am wearing 2 pairs of pants.

@Filthy  This happens to me also from the TSA. They always ask were can I buy a pair of jeans like this. I say go on the web and look up Iron Heart Jeans.

Oh man, after seeing the fades on the 555-XHSib I think I might have to pull the trigger on these…

@bobbychacha - this denim more than lives up to the hype.  if the measurements line up for you pull the trigger & don’t look back.  it’s the toughest & most beautiful denim I’ve ever seen

[bobbychacha]

After a hot soak with agitation, will these stretch beyond the pre-soak measurements?  I am hoping to get about 0.25” out the thighs post soak/stretch.  I’ve also reached out to see if they have a pair in my size with a narrower thigh than posted.  Fingers crossed…

[Giles]

Yep, they stetch out beyond pre-soak measurements…

[bobbychacha]

Thanks Giles- how much stretch beyond pre-soak size is realistic to expect in the waist?

[Giles]

About an inch, but it depends how much pressure the waist band is subject to….

An inch past pre-soak?

Whoops sorry, You'll get an easy inch from post-soak, so reckon on a little more than pre-soak after a few weeks…

Well Giles, that sealed it for me!  I just placed my order.

[Giles]

Cool, thanks.  Expect to be cross-examined by one of the customer service boys tomorrow, they will want to make sure they select the best sized pair possible for you….

Them and me both 
I was debating between 2 sizes and opted to go with the smaller one.  If there is a pair a little bit larger than posted then I think I’ll be golden.

Oh man can you guys hurry up and buy all the 28’s?! Trying so hard not to pull the trigger on a pair. I have no restraint

I've had this problem too, in my 555XHSib. My wife and I now have a TSA PrePass, no more xrays and taking off our shoes, Yay!
I ordered these @twin Let the break in process begin. Actually I plan on wearing these in the 2nd annual Indigo Invitational, so I'll have to wait until October  But, I can't wait to watch yours!

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I let my TSA precheck lapse and never got around to renewing it since the pandemic. I kind of miss it but it seems like, at least for Global Entry, more people have it now than don't. So it is faster to just go through customs because of the long lines at the Global Entry kiosks.

And now nobody's flying, so it really doesnt matter

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

I have to fly all the time still unfortunately.
