[goosehd]

@yo_mj I don’t know if @Alex and @Giles are still doing this, but your jeans might be something that they would be interested in: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/topic/9089/hall-of-fades-the-iron-heart-denim-archives?_=1694906824114

Aha thanks guys! Yeah I have kept all my pairs, kind of sentimental. I'll take a pic of all of them together one day. Some fit pics. Went up a size to factor my concealed carry... Way more comfortable now. Can't really do tight jeans anymore, I think I'm getting old, aha.

I’ve got these in the 666 cut. The good and the bad for me is that I’ve lost 25lbs in the last few months and need a new pair of jeans. Great I lost the weight (as a 47 year old I need to try as best I can to keep up to my almost 2 year old). I think my 666’s stretched about half an inch. Im assuming these will do the same. I don’t soak my jeans until they need a wash. I’m assuming these will be a little harder to break in because they are a little slimmer than the 666’s?

[goosehd]

@deanclean They should be the same to break in as your 666-XHS. The denim doesn’t change between the different cuts as the break-in depends on how the jeans fit you and your body type.

[deanclean]

Thanks @goosehd ill take that into consideration. I thought just because they were a little slimmer they would be tougher to break in. I like a challenge!

[goosehd]

@deanclean You may have more areas that need to be broken in depending on how much weight you’ve lost and the size you ordered.

I’ve got a few pairs of jeans that need to be broken in repeatedly depending on the time of year and how many beers have been consumed…

[deanclean]

Haha @goosehd so true. I should be keeping a few pairs of various sizes around!

[bluemantra]

Is there much shrinkage with a cold wash and no spin? I have a pair the fits great in the waist, thigh, and knee, but wouldn't want very much more shrinkage.

[Daniel San]

@bluemantra
there won’t be much shrinkage if at all when washing cold. Maybe a little at the waist, but that will stretch back with wear . No need to be afraid .
Don’t forget to soak them before you put them in the machine. And turn inside out is what I always recommend. Can’t go wrong with that method.

[Jcaz6996]

@bluemantra echo what @Daniel-San mentions Hot soak it the bath before wearing to remove any remaining shrinkage.

Washing:

[Daniel San]

@Jcaz6996
great video James , didn’t notice before .
Is it new ?
What about the UHR ?

[Jcaz6996]

@Daniel-San hi mate did that video about 7 months ago..
Yeh wearing my UHR at the moment to work 74 days so far I’ll take a few pics when I reach 3 month mark .

Hi guys!
My first heavy jeans, some questions I hope you can help with before I buy:

1. Is 25oz not too extreme for the first pair?
2. It shrinks after the first washing. How the "Hem" measurement changes?
   Thanks in advance!

[Alex]

@JeansCat it sort of depends on what your past experience is with heavy jeans. A lot of people find it easier to start with one of our lighter weight offerings, typically the 21oz. It then also removes any worry about shrinkage too...
