IH-684S-16-GER - Iron Heart Germany 16oz Selvedge Denim Relaxed Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[888]

Love the idea! I’m a big fan of relaxed straight and wide cut denim. Personally, I would love to see it in the class Iron Heart fabric such as the 21oz Indigo and Superblack.

One criticism I have is that I’m not a fan of the patch. From the pictures, it doesn’t seem to be as thick of a leather as other models, the design isn’t embossed but just printed, and it’s a bit underwhelming overall. Perhaps a sumo-inspired design would be cool given that it’s a “wide” cut.

Even I had the same question. Why is the patch stiched? I was under the assumption that only lightweight denim had stitched patches. May be I was wrong.

It‘s 16 oz.

The patch is the same as the patches on all our lightweight jeans - when this cut is made in heavier denim, a heavier patch with embossed graphics will be used (like on all our heavyweight jeans)

@Alex thank you for clarifying. I haven’t had the chance yet to purchase one of the lightweight versions. Excited for the silhouette.

@888, @the246guy It's easy to answer, because that's what we wanted. We think the 14 oz patch design with red lettering on thinner leather goes well with 16 oz denim and has a long tradition in the jeans industry. Like Alex said, the patch and material will be adjusted later if this cut is available in 21 oz denim, for example. Of course, it will then no longer be made of thinner leather with red lettering, but will be embossed.
And the tiger design is ultimately a matter of taste, and you can never please everyone. A sumo wrestler might be good for baggy jeans, but I doubt Iron Heart will ever make them.

Here are some more pictures of the sample pair that I'm currently wearing. The 16-oz. ring-spun denim goes very nicely.

Interesting how we all see things differently. I really like the patch design and the thinner material used on these.

(I actually find the thick IH patch a bit “too much”, although I realise this may be an unpopular opinion.)

What's not to love about a tiger? It's a frickin tiger. I love tigers dude.

Siberian tigers are the largest big cats on the planet and they eat frickin bears.

Tiger > Sumo

And the only thing cooler than that tiger is a sick ass panther. And there's nothing cooler than a SAP.

Next cut graphic?

@Alex

Just an idea the very first launch batch.
Have the red W a different color.

[Alex]

@Kasi the first batch is already in the works mate

Will this have a 36 length compared to the usual 34 length that all the 634's are made of?

[Alex]

I just opened 15 random 634s and all were between 35.0 and 37.0" inseam. Sometimes the IH-634S has a 34 inseam when we get Japan stock, thats about it...
