I need to stop slacking and just order from IHUK exclusive from now on. It's amazing how their orders are delivery stateside faster than retailers here.
-
Hoping for mine to ship soon
-
@Johnnyutah247 ordered on Monday from Gosport, UK and wearing them in Kyle, Texas on Friday. That’s the power of Iron Hearts amazing customer service!
-
They just arrived and are perfect. Many thanks to the IH crew for delaying shipping while I was out of town. Size XXL paired here with matching heavyweight hoodie to create a full Iron sweatsuit.

@Brandrea size large. It seems everyone is getting that flu. Shame you can’t pick em up now as they’re perfect for wearing around the house. Feel better man!
-
@Brandrea Dude did you get the noravirus too?! That crap is gnarly…
-
@Danimal506, @Chibs thanks fellas. I think it’s that flu strain that’s going around. Caught it on Boxing Day and just now starting to feel a bit better. I have my IH shipments delivered to my office address, so this will be delayed gratification lol
@Chibs, I sent with the large size as well. I think you and I are the same size in IH denim
-
@Brandrea Get well soon

Ok guys, turn away if you don’t want to see my impression of plumber butt lol, but I actually would appreciate some advice here.
I woke up feeling MUCH better this morning so I jetted off to work (5 min drive) to snag these from my office.
First impressions, I LOVE the feel of these pants, just like the hoodies and sweat top that I own. I just can’t say enough about how much I love the IH fabric used here.
Here’s the thing … theses pants don’t really seem to fit me all that well. To clarify, when I’m standing or walking around the house they’re great, but as soon as I bend to sit down or bend over …. They almost slide off my butt. What’s weird is that they fit perfectly in the waist (un tied). I’d say, comfortably snug across the hips and waist. There’s plenty of stretch in them.
I wear 34/35, in 634 and 666 cuts. My waist is 17.5. These are size large.
Anyone else have this issue? Would sizing up help? I’m afraid I may have to return them as they just don’t seem to work for me
Here’s are a few fit pics…
-
Sizing up may help marginally, but I don’t think that’ll fix it. FWIW mine are the same, and I think they’re great reagardless. Hike em up and tie them at your natural waist and they’ll stay put better.
FWIW I have the same issue with all IH cuts and pants except 463 and 816, and sometimes cargoes. The differential between front and rear rise isn’t big enough.
-
@Brandrea I have that issue on mine, as well as the shorts made from the same fabric. I tie the waist and it mitigates it enough for me. My wife has seen worse around the house.
-
Sorry to hear they are sliding off @Brandrea Comfortably snug when untied is probably not ideal for sweatpants. Sizing up might help.
-
@sabergirl Thanks for that detail, appreciate it. Now that you mention it, I do have the same issue in my denim, now that I think of it. I see what you mean about the front/rear rise ratio and that makes sense.
I’ll sleep on it before I decide on what to do. I really like everything else about them ….
-
@Danimal506 Thanks for that, I’m glad I’m not the only one. I’ll try tying them up tomorrow to see if that helps.
-
I’m tempted to order the XL just to see if it makes a difference … no black but olive are still available.
-
@Brandrea I just tried the same squat with them on and mine don’t feel like they’re sliding off or showing my butt. I have mine tied though. Maybe try that and see if it helps? As other’s have mentioned, the elastics aren’t strong like other joggers so this may be contributing. Apart from that, they look like they fit so idk.
Here’s one from the other day. They aren’t as warm as my Uniqlo heattech pile lined sweatpants but they’re more comfortable all around and especially @ indoor temperatures. -
I may be wearing sweatpants (and anything with a drawstring) wrong all of these years. I’ve always pulled the string taught at the top of my hip bones and tied the strings. Always thought of it as a natural ledge and a great place for the string to set. Never tight enough that it digs in uncomfortably, but tight enough that it doesn’t slide down…
Just my $.02

Thanks for the comments. I tried tying them at the waist, and although it helps some, I think @sabergirl might be onto something regarding the rise, as I don’t seem to be the only one with this fit issue.
I decided to order the last pair of XL in olive this morning, just to compare. By the looks of it there’s about 1.2” more in the XL olive rear rise as compared to the Large black, and am hoping this does the trick. I figure if I have to tie them at the waist I might as well see if a size up improves things (for me).
I’ll post here again once I receive them.
Thanks everyone
