Iron Heart 888 or 777

Hello to you all, I have purchased my first Iron Heart jeans in the 666. However measuring 8.5 on the leg inner it seems like a boot cut, compared to my normal jeans. I was wondering if I should go for the 777 or 888, ideally I would like a 7 inch inner leg seam. My preference would be high rise with a 7inch leg. Perhaps as a 51 year old 36w the slimmer style is not the way forward? Any suggestions

@craig11 I have moved your question to here.

Do you currently have a pair of jeans that fit you well and the way you want? If so, watch this video on how Ironheart measures their jeans: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/post/5619 and it will give us a much better chance of finding a pair that will work for you.

Just take a look at a few of the measurement charts (there is on on every product page under "Size Guide". But, I'm guessing you mean you want a 7" hem, in which case we have nothing remotely that slim. As a point of reference the 888 and 555 have high rise 777 low.

Out of all your fabrics, what would you say is the most durable? I suppose the 17oz duck?

[AdamJ]

@RobeOfTheMagi all of them?

17oz duck is a beast as you say, but I am yet to find a fabric that we make that I have deemed "soft" or non-durable.

Any of our denims will take a serious beating to be compromised. Our 12oz wabash, whilst objectively lighter than XHS denim, is an absolute tank. The 12oz whipcord is another example of a fabric that I would class as highly durable despite not being super tough in hand

hi everyone ,
I will have a trip to Dubai next week and was wondering if you guys know and recommend any places where I can find Iron Heart in Dubai or even any other Japanese denim brand shop in general in Dubai.
thanks

I'm looking for my first IH denim western shirt and I have no idea which one to get. Any recommendations for a solid first choice? I'm not really looking into acquiring a large amount of denim shirts; I'd rather have one that I commit some time to.

I know It a very broad question but there might be some forum favourites :).

[goosehd]

@RobeOfTheMagi Easy answer for me and it would be one of the IHSH-33’s. Pick your colour and you can’t go wrong.

[pechelman]

Another vote for the 33. It's such a great shirt.

[Tago Mago]

+3 on the 33, I really like my OD 33

[RobeOfTheMagi]

It's settled then :).

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Well not quite. I want blue denim. But contrast stitching or not?

[pechelman]

Blue and contrasting for me.

[RobeOfTheMagi]

Update:

Got the tonal blue version :).

Sorry, pechelman.

[ZackB]

@RobeOfTheMagi awesome pickup, the 33 was my first iron heart shirt too.

[bluemantra]

@RobeOfTheMagi excellent choice!

[Matt]

My first as well.
