IH-888S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo

@WhiskeySandwich Thanks, man — good to hear! Yeah, sounds like we’re in the same boat. I actually like the fitted look too, but that soak trick sounds clever — never tried that before. I might give it a go next time they start feeling too snug after a few beers

Only thing I’m a bit worried about is the first wash — hoping they don’t shrink too much and end up too small. -
@Josso the wash always makes em snug then they loosen up quick, it’s the waist on the 888 that needs the extra loosening for me but a little discomfort for a day while they stretch damp does the trick

5th wash at 158 wears

@WhiskeySandwich those look splendid

@Oaktavia thank you sir! They’re quite nice, if I say so myself. Super comfy.

These were my first Iron Heart jeans. I don't track wears, but they've been machine-washed twice. The belt is from Hawkmoth Leather Company.

Close to 6 years owned I think. My first pair of Iron Heart denim. They’ve been worn heavily in rotation for periods of time, and not so much at other points. Recently been wearing a bit more again but also wearing a pair of the selfedge 19oz 633 which I’m absolutely loving.
These have been worn and washed and unknown amount of times. Repaired a few times but still very wearable

My pair from March '24, plenty of wear and bike riding:
