I recently picked up a pair of Kaptain Sunshine's shoecut denim. Loved the fabric, but couldn't get on with the fit so thought I'd ask if IH has ever done a slubby/neppy, hairy denim?
-
Yeah, sorry @Giles, shouldn't have conflated the two. Neppy would be interesting.

@louisbosco I use Waze all the time in mine. Not on the car, just on my iPhone. If you have that connected to Bluetooth, you get guidance through your car’s speakers. The charge pad you rest your phone on is in an okay spot if you need to glance down once in a while.

@CosmoSix5 There look great. What size are they? My size 34s look a lot baggier. Did they shrink at all after washing?
-
@Chibs cheers mate. Really helpful, I’ll bear in mind to bring my MagSafe phone holder just in case

@petersmith mine are a 38 tag size. I wasn't happy until they were brought in knee to hem. Unfortunately this specific pickiness may keep me from ever having a XHS pair. The 21oz garners "this fabric is quite heavy" from Marina my local tailor. I don't think she'd touch 25oz. And that's a lot of money to have jeans that aren't exactly(close to) what I want. Very jelly of the 33" tag size people those measurements are amazing. Can't suck it in that much
-
@CosmoSix5 I didn't realize you could tailor Iron Hearts like that. Can you just take it to any tailor to do it? Or does it have to be a pretty skilled tailor? Since they're selvedge and all....
-
@petersmith use judgement and ask questions. Hemming and tapering, shortening sleeves are pretty simple for most.
-
@petersmith I have had IH jeans and cargos tapered. Have also taken both my 21oz Riders jackets in and had sleeves shortened / tapered. I would go to a tailor that you trust / are recommended. I can recommend one in London if needed.

@Cutlasshound How’s the sheep herding going?

Have you guys ever considered bigger models for product pics? Like someone who wears 3-4X and 38"+ waist jeans

@wjw This is a good question, but I'm curious to how many 3-4X they sell compared to smaller sizes, maybe they just market to their target demographic with sizes that sell the most? Not sure but don't see nothing wrong with that
-
@wjw it would be helpful yeah? Especially with bottoms. The hem on a 38 is a lot different than a 32 as an example. Is something different with tops I can't think of?
-
This is my 2 cents worth input, I think these sizing questions are like beating a dead horse. I'm getting a head ache constantly reading the same requests, questions, complaints, and then appropriately answered. It kind of gets to a point of if it's not working, then maybe it's time to move on to another brand.

@ROman no single company is perfect. Example is Iron Heart's sleeves. Perfect for me! Usually I need to size up past my normal in order for a long sleeve shirt to work. Not with IH though, the bike rider sleeve length works great for me. The opposite is the jeans fits being a little to wide. Still wear them though! Again nobody's perfect. Also I didn't see the posts as complaints really. Just an actual request that made some sense.
