You should have got a a tracking number. No? Giles
Nope…should I be worried because it still says processing from 4/6/12. Which is like almost a week now.
Yes, this is a worry, I remember processing the shipment but have had no confirmation email from Parcel Force - have PM’d you. So sorry, we’ll get it sorted ASAP

I grabbed bagley's size 40 634S for my dad. It's a great starter pair for him. He's 63 and super stubborn. He refuses to wear anything but Wranglers, in a carrot cut. I don't know if many companies make a 40 waist and 9 hem, besides wrangler. I'll post some pics of him, once I get them in. Slowly but surely I'm getting my family and friends into IH. My next fam purchases are some IH-106 for my mom and some IH-555 for my bro.

Finally snagged a pair of these. They have stretched out a bit since I have been wearing them around the apartment. Im curious about a couple things. Where are they made? I assume and hope Japan, but its not specific. Second, my 33's measured 32 inches. This differs from other measurements floating around. Any idea's why, or is this just how it goes? Im pretty sure based on everyones experience they will stretch even more, which def. would be a good thing.

They're made in Japan, don't worry. All IH denim (and virtually everything else IH) is made in Japan.
Not sure why your size 33 jeans measure 32", unless it's because you're measuring slightly differently than IH does. Check the "How We Measure" thread to verify that you're doing it the same way. That said, each pair will vary a little, and even sanforized denim will shrink a bit when washed and dried, so they might be a tad smaller than the tagged size if you've run them through the washer & dryer. They will stretch, though, don't worry. I've seen people stretch theirs as much as 2 inches in the waist.

yea, these are brand new and measure a solid 32", marked 33". Its not a huge deal because they will stretch, but it kinda renders the whole point of posting measurements on sites that sell the brand useless, unless this is a one-off situation. For the record, I purchased these at Self Edge today because they are local to me, and their measurements differ from mine by almost an entire inch ???

Well it would be a one-off situation because as you say publishing incorrect measurements would be pointless and as we go to a lot of time and effort to verify and publish those measurements it would also be bloody stupid…
I have never seen a pair of IH differ from the average published measurements by as much as an inch. Either it is a rogue pair that are mistagged (possible but very rare - so rare that until today I have never seen one, but Haraki does say it is possible), or you are measuring incorrectly. You say you are not, therefore it must be a rogue pair - sorry. But as I presume you went into SE in person all that really matters is you got a pair that fit, and yes hey will stretch an inch.

It should be noted that Iron Heart and Self Edge measure the waist differently.
Self Edge method:
Iron Heart method:
I did a quick measure of my pair of size 33 634S using both methods, and I came up with 32 inches in the waist via SE's way, and about 33.5 inches via IH's way. Check the pictures below:
Quality of the pics sucks, I know, but it should be enough to show that measurements can vary depending on all sorts of factors. The bottom line is that, as Giles said, you got to try them on in Self Edge and got a pair that fits, and that they will stretch a bit if you need them to.
How's the fit guys? Appreciate your help and advise.
