and thigh is smaller on a 36 than a 34??

There is the usual variance so if you're after something in particular just get in touch.

As my first time delving into the selvedge denim world I got these 777-14 in a tagged size 28 with 27” hem (I’m hella short). This is also my first IH purchase. Customer service was absolutely great and very helpful in making sure I purchased the correct size. Definitely excited to grow my IH collection!

First impressions:
Sweet looking pair of jeans! I got a little worried as I put them on as I found it quite difficult to button them up, not bc they were super tight but bc the button holes were pretty stiff. The waist was a bit snug and felt stiff overall on the first initial wear. I decided to break these babies in at work today and spent about 12 hrs in them on a construction site. I ran up and down stairs, ladders, and squatted throughout the day. The waist definitely got more wiggle room now and the denim’s not squeezing my muffin top anymore. I was surprised to find that the pockets were tight! I thought my iPhone screen was going to crack and getting keys out of the front pocket was interesting. Never experienced tight pockets like these before. But I definitely do like the fact they’re deep and functional. I’m excited to see these jeans develop character and form to my body shape! I’m also planning on getting it tailored so I can get a slight taper on the knees to hem. Apparently , I’m so short the taper disappeared

Thanks, Haddtoo!
Honestly, it was bc of the IH forum that I decided to go with this brand. All the info, pics, and feedback are so helpful. It got me excited about buying jeans and wanting to share that experience, lol.

Great fit @RoxRocks86 and loving your Stussy T which reminds me of the Stussy designs I used to wear at Uni back in the late 80's

Brilliant - that's what we like…...Welcome.

Thanks @den1mhead had no idea that this brand has been around that long (not implying anything :-X). Good to see they’re still pretty popular and keeping their designs the same.
Thanks for the welcome @giles! I’m honored, you seem to be famous here

More infamous, I'd say.

Right after a little bit of ripping, snipping and stitching the taper. These 777s finally look like super slim tapered jeans on my body.
Posted other pics in the WAYWT - Working in your workwear thread. Enjoying the versatility of these jeans. Laborer by day, partier by night.
Also, realizing how hard it is taking decent pics of denim.

You're going to love how these evolve through working in them. It's the best way to beautiful jeans.
Denim is tough to photgraph. I'm crap at it, personally but there are are couple of decent articles online (Denimhunters, Heddels) and there's this thread with some good tips https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=10732.0. Lots of natural light is best.

Thanks for the link and suggestions @neph93. Gonna read up!

Not even a full month of wear, but they’ve quickly become my favorite go to work jeans. They average 3 days of wear per week. As for wash, just throw them into the washing machine and dryer with high heat & spin each week.

Dang @RoxRocks86 - you and @Spitfiredealer could write a textbook on how to get awesome fades.
The 777s are looking awesome [emoji41]
