        That roping is very nice indeed. I really like the way it is spaced.

        I’m tempted by the 634 again. It really isn’t my cut, but sizing down in a pair may help and this denim needs to be on my legs…

          Do it! The richness of this particular shade of indigo is somethin' else.

          The roping wasn't too noticeable until the wash. I had them hemmed at Indigo Proof a few months ago and I didn't think they would get that twist but I'm glad it's here now.

          I find myself thinking about them a lot, like when I'm laying in bed at night. All this time alone at home with the pandemic has really ramped up my obsession with denim.

              Do you have any of those for sale? I'd love a 3x or 4x… It would fulfill my dream of being able to dress like Martin Sheen in Badlands.

                There are a few in Japan, but they max out at XXL over there, I am afraid.  They do run a little large…..But XX may be pushing it for you....

                  Ah yeah, just a tad too short and tight in the chest. Thanks for the info.

                      Please suggest me how to store these jeans if I do not plan to use for few months.

                      I have a couple of IronHeart jeans, Levis and couple other raw denims hanging unused in my closet for 6 months in similar condition during the pandemic but only 666s-18 developed a lot mould. ( It has been raining a bit here )

                        If you are in a warm damp climate then there is always a danger mildew will develop if jeans are not clean. The only safe way to avoid it is to wash the jeans and dry them thoroughly before storing.

                          Another wash. Just a little over 4 months of actual wear. What a great fabric!

                            Living up to the vintage moniker… lovely gentle fading. They will just keep getting better.

                            Nice rug too.

                              Seriously.. I would think they are true 1947 501s with those tones!

                              Mine look rather basic in comparison, but a wash brought out a lot of vertical faling

                              I also desperately need to have mine hemmed..

                                Thanks @neph93 I'm really happy with how they're coming along.

                                @Appfaff Hem those babies! They look great with the boots in your photo. Sometimes I feel like I should buy a backup pair of these to keep on ice in my closet.

                                  It’s never a bad idea to have a backup pair if you really love a denim that is not one of the top sellers. I learned that the hard way with the 16oz Vintage.  😢

                                      Hi to all the mebers . This would be my second pair of Iron Heart. My waist is around 36.8 inches. I see that the tag 35 is 35.5 inches and the tag 36 is 35.5 . I usually prefer to wear my Jeans unsoaked and unwashed , but definetely i am going to wash them once or twice a year . My i ask the mebers opinions , if any of these tags are going to fit me ? Thanks.

                                        You should measure a pair of jeans you like the fit of the same way as the IH crew measure. A video guide is on each product page and it is quite straightforward. Go with the closest measurements, taking into account stretch.

                                        When you have done that you can email shop@ironheart.co.uk and the guys will help you.

                                        It seems to me that the w34 at 35.5” would be better than the w36 at 37.4”.

                                          Thank you for your reply. It seems that the best tag for be would be 35 but unfortunately 35 does not exist in the most models of IH.

                                            Maybe. But The w34 will stretch at least an inch and will not shrink. That seems like it would work for you. I feel sure that the W36 will be too big. However, measuring your body is not as good as measuring a pair of jeans that fit you well. Do that and talk to the staff at IHUK. They are really good at this.
