SEXIH25 = Self Edge x Iron Heart 19oz Denim Jeans

[Gavin666]

Was really looking forward to these but can’t take a risk unfortunately as the sizing seems off again. I have been a consistent 32” in every IH yet these are coming in at 33”. Are they correct?

[nomadic]

fabric looks really nice, pity the tapered look with small hem isn't for me.

[Alex]

@Gavin666 I am sure they are correct to the way that self edge always measure their jeans, which differs to the way we measure ours

[Gavin666]

@Alex thanks - will check out how they measure and keep 🫰Stange though as they seem to measure the waist the same. Have been 32” in 777,555 and 666. Are these likely to differ?

[goosehd]

@Gavin666 They do not.

This is pretty useless info, to be honest. The only way to know is to compare apples with apples. In this case, what I would suggest doing as you are trying to compare SE measurments is to find a pair of jeans you own, that they still sell, look at their chart for those jeans and see if you can measure their way to get similar results, then compare to the new collab measurements

[Gavin666]

@goosehd struggling to see how pulling waist tight can give give different measurements no matter how you do it unless i am missing something?!

[Alex]

@Gavin666 we find that the waist measured the SE way and the IH way typically does vary

[Giles]

It makes a difference, because we way we do it (i.e. The way Japanese factories do it - which is why we do the same, to avoid confusion when we are speccing jeans) takes into account the dip in the waistband at the front of the jean. Other ways do not, hence the difference in measurements. Take a pair of your jeans and measure both ways, you will get different results.

[Gavin666]

@Giles thanks for clarifying both. Appreciated.

For the 301s, if I want a 35” waist, should I do 36 or 38? 38 would be a real kick to the ego, but I’m guessing I could just stretch the 36 an inch?

We are getting to the point of where I can't add much more value I am afraid. We can really only talk to the veracity and the methodology of the Iron Heart measurements, I think any further questions of these collabs and their sizing would be better directed at Self Edge via email so that they can handle things on their end.

[ZackB]

I know it’s going to be a crazy release but self edge has always been spot on with sizing advice on the 2 633s I have.

[seawolf]

@ssherman95 Trust the measurements, and don't let a silly thing like tag size bruise your ego.

[goosehd]

@ssherman95 you’ll also need to contact Self Edge as this is their exclusive release.

Will the 301 models have any expected shrink in length after 1st initial wash?

[Buckeye]

@koreanoodle808 almost assuredly some shrinkage in the regular version, probably no shrinkage in the overdyed version

The overdyed one will not shrink and the indigo one has been factory rinsed, so as long as you cold wash and air/line dry them you'll see minimal shrinkage.

Due to the confusion around when "Friday night at midnight" is we are changing the online release date to Saturday, May 31st at 9am (PST).

The size for my 37" waist .. 40, lol are not slim(9.25 knee) or tapered(8.75 hem). Almost glad as I like two tops. The measurements for the 36 are good. My normal IH size... Chart is the 301OD so little chance of shrinkage. This is a good opportunity for someone with thicker legs to get into this cut so I'm happy for them!
