                    I have a question @Steve and please forgive my ignorance if the answer is simple…

                    Since one of the distinguishing features of each pair is where it sits on the waist, shouldn’t the top line have them reflecting that (ie. low, mid or hi)? I’m having a hard time telling the difference between where each pair sits and how that affects potentially sizing up or down. Based on the graphics the hem and waist all line up so it creates the impression, to me, that they’d all sit the same. I can see that the crotch position varies, but that isnt helping me visualize how each pair fits.

                      Do you mean something like this @Matt ? We did try this view at an early design stage, but ended up with uneven hems, so went with a more uniform guide in the end. TBH there probably isn't a 'correct' way to show this, as everyone has different ways of processing info and equally I guess different ways of wearing their jeans

                      (Got my tool out first thing this morning to knock this up for you)

                        @Steve - think that is really helpful. As a 555 man I wear them as I like the fit bit have always struggled with the difference between high rise and medium rise: this helps a lot

                          Fwiw I find this second version with the waists and hems on different levels way easier to understand, also.

                          Both are great resources, in any case! Thank you for all your hard work putting these together, Steve.

                            I agree. I like the version that shows the rise at a different level as well. This tool is super helpful! Maybe I can pull off the 555 cut afterall!!!

                              I think those are valid points @Steve thanks for that. I do prefer the rise centric view and I think since the length is the most consistently variable feature of all the cuts it seems the least helpful to have them all aligned. The fact that the inseam measurements can be easily altered per the wearer’s preferences reinforces this point. With cuffing and hemming you can get the length exactly where you want it. The rise in n the other hand is what it is so seeing that comparison would be my preference.

                              Thanks for hearing me out.

                                I personally think the comparison that lines up all the crotches is clearer at showing the different rises.

                                I really like the 'The [CUT] Compared' series. If I could add something, I'd add little annotations making the differences super clear.

                                Edit: something like this but not amateur hour:

                                    Question for you UK folk… in the description for the 555, it says ‘They look great on larger people who want a slim look below the knee.’

                                    When you say ‘larger’, do you mean taller? Or fatter? Or both?

                                      I suspect that was @Giles being politically correct for ‘fatter’

                                        @Buckeye a little of both? Lol I'm 6'4.5" 228lbs and the 555 is my favorite IH fit so far. Taller guys benefit from a higher rise. I bought the 777 first and looked goofy. Like I was split into 2 in the middle.

                                          I'm glad I found this thread. I've been lurking for a good while, trying to determine which cut should be my first pair of Iron Heart denim. I've been looking at each cut and have been left a little bewildered though undeterred.

                                          I'm hoping the faithful and knowledgeable denim heads here can recommend my next pair. it would join three IH shirts.

                                          First, I'll start with what I like with fits and then measurements important to me. In the eight or so pairs of raw denim I've gathered over the last few years, I find that a full top block suits my athletic mid-section. (and my backside, to which my wife constantly reminds me of how much she likes it). I take this to mean that mid to full rise suits me better because there's enough fabric up top and out back to cover the ol' pamplemousse. So I've interpreted this to mean that nearly all slim and skinny cuts won't work.

                                          Measurements for me tend to come in well around 11-ish inches front rise and a 15-ish back rise. The waist is usually 33 to 34.5, depending on the denim. This usually puts in tags 31 and 32 for many brands and probably a 33 tag for most Iron Heart cuts.

                                          I'm mostly a boot guy when it comes to selvage denim and I've come to like an ~8-ish inch opening. A little less if I'm wearing cowboy boots and a little more if the boots are chunkier. And I've found a knee of about 8 to 9 inches to be a sweet spot; 8 if it's a cowboy cut and 9 inches for a proper straight cut.

                                          The 634 looks like it could be a contender, but it sports a bigger knee and hem of 9.5 and 9.2, respectively. That seems a little big to me. The 777 looks to slim things up just enough in the knee and opening. Is that my jam? Then there's the 888...

                                          Am I thinking about all this correctly? Or, more likely, am I overthinking it?

                                          And lastly, I intend on either the 25 oz or 21/23 oz because full send!

                                          Safety third
