ULTRA HEAVY RAW - IH-1955-UHR, IH-666-UHR and IH-634-UHR

[summ3rhays]

@Giles:

1955 due in about 4-6 weeks, then 666 6 weeks later then 634 6 weeks later.  But don't hold me to it….

That's about perfect.  634s for my birthday in July!

Hi,
New to IH and have previously only been satisfied with the Edwin ED 49 as it has a high front and back rise.Even the ED 39 or Nashville doesn't quite cut it for me,fit wise.
I am now considering McCoys Lot 002
or the IH 1955 21/23?
Any thoughts?
Reading through the comments,I did not see any mention of leg twist in the IH1955s.
It is something I do not really want.
Can anyone tell me if this will occur in the 21/23 STF denim or not?
Cheers.

[Giles]

You'll get shit loads of twist out of the 21/23, as you are likely to with any loom state denim (if you don't, it's
likely not loom state)  Consider the 1955S instead….

[Anodsasgoodasawink]

Thanks.Was that the outcome when this denim was used for the ltd Ed. run it was previously available in?

[Giles]

Yes, it is the outcome with all loom state denim.  If you don't get twist, something has been done to the denim post weave…

Thanks Giles.you just saved me a few bucks and some anguish!

[footandmaff]

Thanks for the post Giles that's made my decision for me. Next purchase will be 1955S then…or possibly 666XHS...

Hoping the insesm on the 666 comes in nice and long. Picked up a pair of SE05bsps to tide me over until I csn get a pair of IH that fits. So many nice pair of denim that no longer fit me since I started bulking up

I really miss my iron hearts

[Anesthetist]

Hey TMT, good to see you posting again!

[pillowPANTS]

Bulking up Tat? U hittin the sauce bro?

[tatmantall]

Ha! Actually, joined a local gym and started lifting back in early fall and the addictive personality in me took over so hooked up with a personal trainer and have managed to put on 15 lbs as a result, lord knows I couldn't afford to get any skinnier than I was. I feel great and really enjoy training but now hardly any of my clothes fit.

Welcome back! WAYWT should be awesome when you get some pants that fit ;). Great to hear you're well. Had wondered where you went.

[tatmantall]

Thanks snowman, good to be back! will certainly do the WAYWT when I manage to pick up some new fits. Anxious to get a bit more variety in the wardrobe dept. not used to being this limited. Hope sll has been well with everybody.

Good for u dude. Hope ur clothes game gets back on track soon. Thank god ur boot size doesnt change during excersise lol

[Max Power]

Sorry if this has been asked before: are these extant (if they sell good, which they will)? and did Vater & Sohn order some?

[Giles]

They may become extant, depends on you guys of course, V&S have ordered a few 666 and 634

[Max Power]

Great News, so I'll try them out. Seriously tempted. And if they don't sell like hot cakes, I'll be cursed. This is by far the most outstanding denim IH does (IMO). So far I just didn't get the right cut - the 666 might do, if the thighs are large enough.

[Fergz]

New raw denim on the agenda for me soon. Really looking forward to the 666 cut in these. Either that or 555 21oz.
