IH-301S

[Finn666]

fit looks like a nice relaxed (for 301S) fit…i like it, i really do and if YOU feel comfortable in´it, why change a thing?!
keep´em and wear´em hard and don´t think about the sizing down thingy too much...

[Seul]

You wanna size down on that fit?.. You're out of your bloody mind…

Where's Jack when you need 'm!..

[beautiful_FrEaK]

for a women, I think one size down wouldn't be that bad.

Thanks for the input dudes! This is what I need to hear. I just always second guess myself when buying selvedge denim online without being able to try on different sizes. I have a feeling there would have been some unpleasantries with the rise, if you know what I mean, had I sized down. The slight extra waist room (i'm talking like a half an inch) is not that bothersome, I can live with it. It's actually good for when I want tuck in a shirt.

In any event, I am a big believer in having slightly more room in the top block for the sake of the jean lasting longer. If they're too tight up there the crotch always blows too soon!

Yeah half an inch of spare room is hardly an issue mate!.. Wear 'm hard and enjoy the ride!..

Thanks man! Going to wear them every day in Tel Aviv for the next 8 months. It will be a testament to those who rock 21 oz in hot climates.

Better fit than the flat head imo. Super nice!!

[zhivago]

Really glad those worked out Joe!

[seanocono]

Great fit, Lori.

[Finn666]

fit of perfection! just needs a little hem though…

[Snowy]

::)   Great fit, they look really nicely tapered! I'd cuff em. Cuffs go nicely with the ::)

My 301S arrived from Self Edge today (I live in the UK, so it was a lengthy 11 day wait!).

H E L L  Y E A H . . . ! ! !

Was a bit concerned about the roomier top box (what with my current favourites being FH 2011, which are uber-tight up top), but everything seems to sit perfectly. Also, due to my own negligence, I failed to notice that there is no selvedge line down the seam, but that is one negative amongst many positives. Will post fit pics later today.

Well, after all my back and forth-ing for the past week I sold off my 301s and just ordered a size down! Should have them by Monday and will post fit pics right away as a comparison. Hopefully this will be a good tool for any others hesitant because of the sort of weird sizing with the boxy top.

While I haven't tried the 31s yet, I can say fairly confidently that in this particular cut, and with the way the denim stretches very quickly, the current production seems to run a size big (I'm a true size 33 waist, so 32 tagged jeans in most brands like Flat Head and Momotaro, LVC, etc, are always spot on for me).

Pics to come…

[Spring Son of Light]

Update! Got the 31s (one size down) and it was the best decision I could have made. I was able to put them on without a ton of trouble, and while they're just slightly tight right now in the waist, I know they'll stretch nicely within a few wears. So glad I did this!

[madmonday]

they look good.  glad you are happy with them

[Finn666]

monday said it all! great fit…
