IH-555-XHS - 25oz Selvedge Denim Slim Jeans - Indigo
-
Just pulled the trigger on a pair of these. Last tag 29 in the building.
Goes without saying but the dudes were so damn helpful walking me through sizing etc. IH CS could give a Ted Talk on customer service.
On a separate note, I’ve never had a pair of 25 oz denim before but I do have a Ship John Wills jacket and it’s gnarly af. Total beast to wear. Just realized they’re only 24 oz. What have I gotten myself into with these jeans
Good thing I’m a masochist haha

Got them today. Ten minutes and a bloody thumb later, I’ve got em on. They’re tight in the waist so I’ll follow @neph93’s advice and wear them for a week or so before a soak and wash. They are no joke but they aren’t as heavy as the Wills jacket (thank god) I guess because of the wax they put on it or something. I love these. Lookin’ forward to breaking them in for sure

I will steal this if I may. It is perfect:

@Giles have at it man. I lay no claims to the intrinsic truths of life 🪬

Gettin’ ready for a mile run to break these beasts in ASAP. Iron Heart track suit. Day old IH-555-XHS and 2 month old IHSH-295-IB. Dedication to the fade

@jiminstitches dang dude I’m on 27 days of wear and mine are still looking brand new. Guess that’s what I get for having a work from home office job
yours look great -
@jiminstitches solid work for 40 days dude...a stiff bristled brush for boots work well for getting dust and dirt out if you're avoiding a wash.
-
I'm so excited for these to get restocked. I'll be able to order a 35 tag size if the measurements remain similar. Down from a 42 tag.
Been a 38 tag for a while but he belts getting work done for that. -
200 wears on these today. Love XHS.
These were washed at 50 wears and 122 wears. Won't be too long before I give them another wash, but will hold out a little longer at least.Great to be back in XHS after a year of wearing SBG for the Indigo Invitational. That said, really starting to miss black jeans now. My love for black denim keeps growing stronger
-
Ended up washing these after just one more wear, as I was wearing the SBGs for a few days.
Fades are always slow going for me, let's see where we are in another 100 days or so.Post wash:

@CosmoSix5 yeah the 777's are ready in Kojima so expect the rest to start rolling in soon

@ssherman95 they usually do not have a date until the product is in hand in Gosport so likely you'll hear a more specific date in coming weeks, I always just keep my eye on the calendar and go off that, delays could be faced due to shipping Japan to UK

Iron Heart fan= Pro Waiter

A little trick I use is going to iron hearts Japanese site, when they are there it's a few weeks away from IHUK. Haraki-san showed the 634's and 21oz 526pj on his Facebook page when they were ready. If you haven't added him as a friend go for it. His posts are cool even when not about IH. -
It's not a foolproof system. It's a fun one though.

@ssherman95 the general rule is it arrives in the UK, once we're happy we've received what we expected, we then assess photography requirements and post launch dates on here pretty much as soon as they're decided
