IH-633S - Self Edge x Iron Heart 21oz Selvedge Straight Tapered
-
To elaborate a bit. Kiya from Self Edge wanted a cut that was 634 in the top block, but with more taper to the cuff. We made it and called it the 633. It is exclusive to Self Edge. Unlike the jeans we stock, we do not measure each production run, so do not know what the measurements actually are on these from run to run.
Also be aware that Self Edge measure jeans differently from us.

Anyone here have a pair of 633 and also another pair of IH that can help me out please? Self Edges sizing seems all over the place! I am a 32” in all IH cuts here in the UK (just talking waist here). They have a pair of 633 in a 31” and they seem to fit me on paper just right albeit a tight waist that will stretch enough. Some of their other models I am a 32-36 according to their measurements! Anyone had a pair of 634 and 633 regular indigo that can help with waist sizes? Do you take the same in both. TIA
-
If I was you I would take the same size on 633 as you take on 634. It's hard to size for someone else. What size are you on 634? Keep in mind that the sizing guide on Selvedge website is different than how IH measures.

@yannis thanks Yannis. Not had the 634 but am 32” in 555, 777 and 666. The thighs, knees etc on the 634 are bang on as I want a pair of slightly more relaxed but the waist is showing 32”. Have checked with Kiya and she says it is dead on 32” but some of their other waist measurements are all over. For example all their 777 measure exactly the same as the tag size.

I woukd go tag 32, just don't hem just in case you need to exchange for a different tag size. I don't think you will need to go any bigger for sure. If a tag 32 666 fits you well you may be able to handle tag 31 on the 634 or 633. Obviously depends the look you are going for. The 634 has a wider profile all the way through from the 666. The 633 suppose to be a 634 with more taper from the knee down.
-
@yannis Appreciate the advice Yannis. I can’t exchange as live in UK but they are on sale so making it worth a punt. The 31” will work all over thigh, rise etc perfectly, it’s just the waist will be bordering on very snug.

@Gavin666 I have a pair of 21 oz and when I ordered those and the XHS I emailed Self edge for sizing advice and they were spot on with the sizing.

Thanks for your help guys. Took the plunge and ordered - 14oz 633s eco for $230

Just picked up my first pair of Iron Hearts. I've had several different brands of Selvedge, this is the most excited I've ever owning a pair of jeans. I can't wait to wear these bad boys and see how they break in. For a 21-ounce pair of jeans, it does feel thick but pretty comfortable. I got them to wear as a daily jean and I plan on wearing them while riding my motorcycle (as they were intended for.

@RDKING_Vicla fits pics?

I’m a big fan of the 633s 14oz, which I’ve I been wearing heavily for two years. So I just got some 633s 18 oz ones, which run about 2 inches smaller in the waist. I’m a 32 in the 14 oz and 34 in the 18 oz. The waist size is correct on the 18 oz but the rest of the cut is wider and baggier. They're not slim/straight fitting jeans. I know you should always follow the measurements on the site, which I thought I did, but these seem like a totally different cut. I’m just wondering how people buy thicker versions of the 633s that fit when the sizing changes so much?
-
Measurements on which site @Plant-Life ?
As a general rule cuts in different denims can come up differently in terms of dims. It doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with denim weight, (for example 14oz 666’s are bigger than the 21oz).
I suspect there are a lot of variables at play here. If you’ve worn the 18oz one of them may be stretch. Others include the factories, differences within runs, etc.

Any chance you bought OD 18oz? Those will be smaller bc of the shrinkage from the OD
-
Am I understanding correctly that you sized up to 34 in the 18oz? That would explain part of why the whole jean is roomier. Even though the measurements may look the same on the site, these are usually published after measuring one or two pairs. My guess is your 14oz 32s were on the smaller side, and the 34s in 18oz were on the larger side.
Also, ymmv but I’ve never found self edge’s measurements to be very reliable.

Excited about this pickup. Tried them on in Portland a few months ago and have thought about them ever since. Jumped on the SE sale this week, wasn’t able to get exact measurements but it seems like it worked out. First ever pair of IH denim, after many tops. Very excited about this 21oz.
-
Great fit on those!

@sabergirl That’s correct. Yeah, seems to be the case.

@Anesthetist thanks man! Those are looking unreal.
