    I actually got a pair of samurai 25oz off ebay and i think my wish for iron heart 25 oz is on a long pause. They were unsanforised so i sized up. After a 40* delicate wash no spin they didnt shrink width that much so i guess i should have gone with 38.

    Wearing 25 oz is fine. Im used to 20oz super secret oni and this feels about similar thickness just much more dense and cardboard like for now. So why ill think long and hard about 25oz iron heart? Buttoning! I quite literally cant button them! I cant risk wearing them where i need to unbutton and button them back! A single button takes me 25min to do and i need a rest after each button! And yes i tried working out buttonholes with screwdriver!

      @rimaarts Buttoning 25oz Ironheart jeans when new is an exercise of perseverance. One of my tricks is to only work on a couple of buttons at a time, and only unbuttoning the ones needed to slide the jeans off. Normally find that I can button all of them within 2-3 days and can easily do it within a week.

      I don’t have any advice regarding your Samurai’s as I don’t have any experience with the 25oz from them. I don’t know if you could even compare the two brands offerings.

      As to buying Ironheart 25oz and sizing, please email the shop for advice on shrinkage and proper fit: shop@ironheart.co.uk

      The guys that are there are the best in what they do and the reason why so many of us are routine customers.

        The Samurai 25oz are way stiffer than XHS. Our weft is double twisted, which results in a more flexible denim...

                @George-Homme they are in production but likely very early 2025

                    And it’s not even close. Especially after a few wears, just no comparison. IH 25oz are way more comfortable.

                    I will say for those considering the 25oz (I have the 888 one) and it goes without saying, is that the initial try on with buttoning may have you regretting your decision. Super rough. And so are the first several wears. Persevere. They become awesome.

                    Choice of underwear becomes monumental hahaha. If you have too much material in the upper thigh, that material will settle all up in your lower intestines by day’s end. I ride my bike to work and learned the hard way loool. I’m wearing them now at work as the weather has cooled here. Just amazing.

                        Those creases on yours are other worldly, seriously. How soft are they? I can only imagine.

                        I’ll wear the shit out of these this winter. I probably have worn them 25-30 times

                          @drewfonse they're comfortable and broken in feeling. Not sure how soft compared to a new pair, I'd have to have them side by side.

                                      @Oaktavia As you should be!
                                      Are you all in on the 634 now or will it be back to the 888 in the future?

                                      (Personally I seem to enjoy pretty much all the cuts, while others are more locked in with a specific one)

                                        @JunkPants I'm back to the 888s for the next couple years. I am going to rotate a pair of 888UHR and 888XHSib.

                                          @Oaktavia Nice, can't go much wrong with those two I reckon.

                                          (UHR is one of the few I haven't tried yet. Need to get to it at some point, but have too much XHS and XHS-variants to get through first)
