IH-666-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
Hi guys! Are there any advice about sizing? Should I go one size up or use my normal 33?
Do they shrink a lot? -
I take the same size on both 21oz and XHS. They shrink, but after wear they stretch back to original size and a little more. Consult the sizing chart and get a pair with similar measurements to your 21oz and you will be just fine.

@xXclown86Xx not that I am aware of, or that we have created. There are some older threads about Self Edge exclusive jeans, but not that model

Is a restock planned in the near future?

Nothing a proper hemming won’t resolve. 56 wears, no washes/soaks.

Quick question. Looking to try out the 25oz, my situation is that I can’t really have cuffs due to my work environment. As much as I’d love to wear the jeans for a while before hemming, I’d need to have them hemmed from the start.
My only other pair of raw denim are UB 201 in 14.5, Which I had hemmed to 29 and after a wash they’re at 28. They could stand to be about a half inch shorter, but the 28 is OK. I know it’s hard to say, but from reading the forums, it looks like I can expect about an inch of inseam shrinkage on the 25oz as well.
Would you say that’s accurate? I’m ok with a half inch swing shorter, but not longer. Should I hem to 28 1/2 or stick with the 29?
Thanks!

@brenman email the shop: shop@ironheart.co.uk and they will sort you out or use the live chat feature on the sale page.
Works awesome and the guys are the best resource for these kind of questions.
-
@brenman why not just hem 1-1/2” long and anticipate a re-hem later?

75 wears, 75 to go. No washes / soaks.

Thank you for the great advice!
I worked with the team and came up with what could be the best plan given the approximate nature of the shrinking that can happen after a wash.
The jeans arrived yesterday. 25oz is no joke, I think a description I read of “wearing armor” is a great analogy to what they feel like.
After a hot soak/wash and a drip dry the jeans landed exactly where Graham approximated they would. I am so happy with the whole process, amazing customer service experience from beginning to end as well as a very high quality product.
Let the journey begin!

I was going through airport security with my 25s on today and they said the “scanner couldn’t penetrate the crotch material of my pants” - needless to say I got a frisk up and left a bit disheveled. Just an FYi.
90 wears. Hoping for 150.
