      @Mizmazzle Going to be my 3rd pair of 888's (also have the 634-21s), first over dyed pair. Excited to see how it ages over time!

          @Mizmazzle can't really go wrong with any of the IH cuts, but the 888's just seem to be strike the perfect balance of all their offerings.

            @Spencer35 100%.., roomy yet trim, high rise, clean hem, just enough thigh space to keep it just right.

              I have a 888 pair of XHSiB and SB (non-fade). I love both, but the SB are definitely more comfortable because of the pliability and breathability. Are the 21od roughly the same fabric as the SB's?
              If there are differences are the od's more/less breathable, pliable, soft...

                @lolnah I think pretty much any over dyed denim is a lot less breathable after the OD process.. basically the dye fills in any sort of “pores” in the weave and will stop air getting through. In regards to softness though, I have a few OD pieces in different weights and they are super soft straight out of the bag with no break in process.

                  Army - Two things:

                  1. The 888 cut just fits right. I have a 666 and, comparatively, the rise is too low and thighs are too tight.
                  2. The 21oz OD material seems a lot thicker than the 21oz SBG. Has anyone else noticed this?
                    thx.

                      Hard to tell from photos but is there any blue in these? Looks black and grey as they fade. Just wondering if appearance is different in person versus photos.

                        @bluemantra they are a fully constructed pair of indigo blue jeans that have had a black overdye process applied.. they fade to somewhere between blue, black and dark grey

                          I recently received a pair of these. My first pair of Iron Heart jeans. I wasn't experienced with the slightly higher rise and ordered a size too big. I also hemmed at purchase. Would these shrink in a hot wash and hot dryer cycle? Or should I try selling and go for the correct size?
                          Anyone's insight would be appreciated. I know it is not popular to put things in the dryer but I'm hoping someone has the experience with this particular material. Thanks in advance.

                            Hi, and nope. U will not get anymore shrinkage. Not possible. This one has been overdyed. Think at this one will also stretch with wears. 21oz denim.

                              Use the buying & selling thread. Nicest pics possible + measurements and you will be fine😊

                                @worsethanyou The above advice is 100% spot on. There is no shrinkage left in those jeans and your assumption may be correct to sell them.

                                We have had forum members have them tailored to fit and it may be an option for you.

                                  @worsethanyou Once again the advice is correct to use the marketplace for buying, selling, or trading. I’ve deleted your post regarding the jeans.

                                        Got my second pair of these the other day. Sized up to a 34 after the 33s I ordered in February of this year ended up being slightly too small for my liking.

                                        The fit is spot on- reminds me of a 21oz version of Wrangler's 13mwz (and the measurements bear it out to an extent) and they stack so nicely over tall boots. On the one hand I'm not looking forward to wearing these through Texas summers. On the other it should help the fades come through that much faster

                                        Pics for reference - 33 on the left, 34 on the right. The differences are small visually, but very noticable in the mobility department, and that's with <24hr of wear on the 34s compared to 2 weeks on the 33s

                                            These are beautiful. I’m glad I got the biggest pair in my size because I find them ever so slightly slimmer than my other 888 denim.

                                            Very comfortable, and the description of them looking like moderately faded black jeans, especially in sunlight, is pretty spot on. Pics included. I promise they are not as stuffed up my butt as they appear to be. Promise.
