      For once I’m happy that the UPS delivery is delayed. Otherwise I never would have managed to resist wearing them before the 1st of January haha

      Use it or lose it.

          @cityofdelusion don’t fret the inch stretch! I remember my pair were slightly over 33 inches when new, and I just measured them and they’re currently at just under 34.5. Slightly over an inch difference from new. They do stretch, just need a bit more work than the indigo 21oz.

                Good info. Would you say that the comfort level/eventual drape is comparable to the 21s?

                I find the 21 ib to be in same category in terms of comfort and ability to keep its shape. Maybe not as warm and fuzzy as the 21s, but awesome nonetheless. Hoping the SBG is in same solar system as those, because these are all work pants for me, luckily.

                  if anyone who ordered a size 35 and is having regrets DM me, I missed out. i have this denim in the 555 cut and will be selling soon as the knee and calves end up being too snug by the end of the day.

                    @drewfonse yup easily comparable to the 21oz indigo. My pair are sweatpant level comfortable.

                          Well, I blew it on the II4. Couldn’t even hold out another week. A contest isn’t really my thing anyway. Love this denim though! This pair feels a little looser than my 21ib despite nearly identical measurements. Been getting farther and farther from skinnies recently, but don’t think I’d go any looser. Shit photos for now.

                            Perfect fit right there @Richard

                            I fear I’m also going to fall victim the moment the brown bag arrives which will hopefully be tomorrow haha @WhiskeySandwich

                                  Anyone have these and the XHS? I have the 21oz indigo and looking for my second pair of IH. The SBG and XHS both seem like good options, either different color or different weight, but appreciate any feedback from anyone who's had both!

                                    @natefreezy I have the XHS and the SBG. Love them both. I started out with 21oz OD and those are so easy to wear and comfy right out of the bag. Next I got my XHS 25oz and I instantly became a 25oz devotee. Then I got my SBG and totally dig them. Somehow got lucky shortly after and found a pair of 25oz bb and that cemented my obsession with 25oz jeans. I love my SBG…but I’m all in on 25oz always. That denim just can’t be beat for feel, for weight, for end game fading. But shit…21oz is so damn good too. The simple fact is if it’s Iron Heart…21oz or 25oz you will have the best damn jeans on the planet.

                                    @WhiskeySandwich bro!! Your 888s look perfect man!! My favorite cut by far!! Feels so easy to wear yet still looks so fucking Rock and Roll!!!

                                    In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                                      @Mizmazzle haha, hell yeah. Thanks! I don't think I could ever have another cut again, 888 for life. Right now I'm all about 21oz SBG and IB. I'm sure I'll jump on the XHS train for the next run though.

                                          I don’t have the 21 SBG yet, it’s on the way, but I do own a few pairs of the 25 xhs and 25ib, and 21s and 21ib, all 888.

                                          I just find the weight, drape, and comfort of the 21s outweighs the potential for dramatic fades with the 25oz.

                                          The 21s and 21ib still fade beautifully.

                                          I’m probably in the minority here, but while I appreciate the incredible denim and sheer attention to detail present in the 25oz, it’s just too much denim for me, even when it gets cooler here. I find my underwear getting scrunched up more, etc.

                                          The XHS is comfortable though. Just know what you’re getting into. The initial try on will be potentially brutal.

                                          Prepare to struggle to get the top button buttoned on the 25 unless you follow the highly recommended advice of using needle nose pliers to loosen up that button hole.

                                          Anyway, they are all awesome, but I wouldn’t hesitate on any of the 21s, honestly.

                                          The ib is stunning, fades strikingly, and is reallllly comfortable. Sounds ilke the SBG follows suit.

                                          Questions? Ask away!
