    Okay, I keep meaning to come on here and say something about these jeans. I have been wearing Iron Heart for a while now. The 634S being my go-to. As much as I love those jeans (especially the pair I have worn for a good 4 years or more) they've always felt a bit too tight in the thigh and loose in the waist and seat. A short while ago I figured I'd give the 1955 a go.

    Wow. I went an inch smaller in the waist, which gave me a much better fit there and the seat but with plenty of room in the thigh. The length is perfect and the taper actually sits a bit nicer on my trainers. My new favourite jean I reckon. Going to live with them for another month or so and then a second pair will most certainly need to be purchased.

    Please can we get these in brown, or overdyed, or grey, or…or...or...I don't know...something else. I want excuses to buy more!

        Just wait until you get them broken in. 😉

          I love my '55's  😉

          Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
          Well, I have others.

            So I've known about IH for about a month now and my upper body is well supplied with 4 phenomenal shirts.  Now my lower body needs some love (earmuffs).

            I'm very sure that this is the cut of jeans for me (34in waist/26in thighs), but alas, there are no 33s in stock.  So, is my best bet to…
            -Buy 34s and ask them to find a pair that's under by about a 1/2 inch in the waist?
            -Ask if they "have any in Japan?" (seems like people do this frequently, not sure how annoying it is)
            -Ask when they'll have 33s back in stock?

              Either 1 or 3.  They are not stocked in Japan…..

                Ok then two questions:  Is a restock imminent?  Is it likely you have an undersized tag 34?

                Thanks for the help. I'm not usually so fussy but I'll definitely be getting them hemmed and would rather "measure twice, cut once."

                  It's better to ask questions like, "do you have a specific size?" using the contact form on the website.  Asking in a post presupposes that we read every post, we don't.  I am travelling so can't measure anything, so please use the contact form then one of the guys back at the office will sort you out.

                  No imminent restock I am afraid.

                      @Giles Matt took care of me, so the order is in!  He even took the extra step of emailing me directly when it was clear I wasn't getting the response via the online form system (which, strangely, isn't in my spam folder either).  Just wanted to say thanks and report on a great experience dealing with the crew.

                        Did they ever do a run in a lighter fabric? I have two of the '55 in 21oz and I'd love a lighter option…

                                Quick question: when were those made for Aero? In particular, when was the run with the Aero patch but the IH arctuates? Thanks!

                                    I'm a fan of the 1955 cut, so would be interested in a 14 oz version too.

                                      New run initiated.  If I have recently said we have a run in production and it should be complete soon.  I was wrong…..

                                        I keep getting drawn back to this cut but I just don't know if I could make the rise work. I could actually size down to a 31 on these and everything would be spot on just that rise which could still be too much. #firstworldproblems

                                          Same here. I was considering this cut many many times but the rise is still too high for me even if I sized down.
