@motojobobo finding iron heart weight is tough but if you haven’t - take a look at Freenote Deck Pants. They are the only chino type pant I own anymore. Similar fit to a 634, slightly higher rise and a bit more relaxed in the top block. I have two pair and once they soften up with wear you barely notice them.
Thank you for your suggestion @iammortalcombat . I’m generally looking for ‘on-seam’ front pockets. Those are my favorites since got a pair of Banana Republic chinos in the early 80s while in college! Memories you know…
The Freenotes look nice though…I may end up trying a pair. Nice color options too. -
@Giles
I have the 76 , has the twill linings too .
So this is not the 76
seems this is not that easy to find out -
@Daniel-San Looks like it might be the 140 which was an 11oz denim.
-
yea, looks like a lighter weight than my 177
-
@Jett129
bingo , must be the 140
great, thank you for the help! -
Def a 140, I wore mine yesterday!

When would I wear a cpo vs a type 3? Is it just preference?
Love the look of of the 293 but I also had been planning to pickup a 526L if they are in stock this year. Just don’t want to essential have 2 similar pieces that I would end up just having one or the other sit

@iammortalcombat Aesthetic preference, yes

@Alex thanks! That helps me plan some future items

Hello all, I am looking to get my first pair of Iron Hearts, specifically the UHR. I am trying to find a fit similar to the 2009 sugar cane cut (slightly slim/ straight). From what I've seen the 666 or the 634 are the closest, in the photos I've seen the 634 can be tight or loose depending on the person, and the 666 can be slim or super skinny depending on the person in the photos I've seen. I am 6,3 and slim to medium build. What should I go with?
-
@MatteRush @MatteRush I have moved your question to the relevant thread we have for this sort of question. I am not familiar with the Sugar Cane 2009 cut. Can I suggest you measure your pair like we do (https://www.ironheart.co.uk/content/how-we-measure/) then let us know what measurements you get, that way it would be easy to compare them with our jeans.
-
@MatteRush - i would definitely go with 666. i have sugar canes 2014 which are almost identical cut to 2009 and they are almost identical to 666 in the way they fit. if you check the measurements you will find it almost identical. Comparing SC2014 to 634 (in let's say 33 inch waist) you'll find thigh 3cm wider in 634 and 2 cm difference in knee.

just ordered my first IH pair!
Thanks for your help and assistance @Iron-Heart-Germanycan't wait to get them, I'm excited like a 13 YO girl right now

Thanks mate, no doubt I will.

Looking for feedback from anyone who has owned both SBG and 14oz BB. Besides fabric weight, how do these two compare? How would you contrast the fading and wear experience over time?
-
21oz SBG: fades quicker, need to take a bit more care when washing to avoid marbling. Higher contrast overall due to the reactive/sulphur dyed techniques in play.
14ozbb: does not fade as quickly, gets softer quicker and in my opinion more comfortable quickly. The fade contrast is not as stark as the SBG
There are extensive fade examples of both denims on the respective threads so you can see how they're going to fade.
SBG is restocking in approx 6 months time, more than worth the wait IMO
