Iron Heart Cuts Overview
-
Thanks guys!
I do like the boot cut @Appfaff but I generally don't wear the kind of boots that need a wider hem. They were super tight in that photo but with stretch, i could tell they would be perfect. Who knows what the future holds!
@ROman I think the 555 will always be my first love as they were my first ever pair. I do find the higher rise of the 555 a challenge when I'm riding though. It's not a graceful moment as I try to swing my leg over the seat.
@Cole Give your eyes a good rubbing! haha Did you look at the bigger version in the gallery? It's much easier to tell the difference between them with that one. I toyed with the idea of having some faint lines on the background so you can see the differences in the rise but i thought it would start to look too busy.
I guess that's what the sliders are for. Might swap the images out on the old sliders for these new ones.

Hi guys,
Don't know if this is the right topic for this question, but here we go :
I want to buy a new Iron Heart jeans and currently own a 555-01 but i would like a slightly looser jeans at the thigh, current taper & hem dimensions are perfect for me on the 555…
I checked the cut guide but I still hesitate between the 666 & 777 versions, any advice for the best choice?
Thanks

I have a question @Steve and please forgive my ignorance if the answer is simple…
Since one of the distinguishing features of each pair is where it sits on the waist, shouldn’t the top line have them reflecting that (ie. low, mid or hi)? I’m having a hard time telling the difference between where each pair sits and how that affects potentially sizing up or down. Based on the graphics the hem and waist all line up so it creates the impression, to me, that they’d all sit the same. I can see that the crotch position varies, but that isnt helping me visualize how each pair fits.

Do you mean something like this @Matt ? We did try this view at an early design stage, but ended up with uneven hems, so went with a more uniform guide in the end. TBH there probably isn't a 'correct' way to show this, as everyone has different ways of processing info and equally I guess different ways of wearing their jeans
(Got my tool out first thing this morning to knock this up for you)

@Steve - think that is really helpful. As a 555 man I wear them as I like the fit bit have always struggled with the difference between high rise and medium rise: this helps a lot

I think those are valid points @Steve thanks for that. I do prefer the rise centric view and I think since the length is the most consistently variable feature of all the cuts it seems the least helpful to have them all aligned. The fact that the inseam measurements can be easily altered per the wearer’s preferences reinforces this point. With cuffing and hemming you can get the length exactly where you want it. The rise in n the other hand is what it is so seeing that comparison would be my preference.
Thanks for hearing me out.
