          The only real way to work that out is to measure a pair of your current jeans that fit you will the way we do:

          http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=5135.0

          And compare with the sizing charts published on every product page under the sizing tab.

          BUT IH-634SR are extinct and there is only one pair of IH-666Sod left

            Hi, 666 is a superslim jeans where the 666s is unsanforised (will shrink to fit) and the 666sod is overdyed. It seems that a size 36 could work in the 666s but i would go with the 634 cut for your first pair of IH.

            634 is based on a 66 cut straight with slight taper. SR anni model and s-raw in the nice 21/23 oz unsanforised denim are extinct unless you find some on the marketplaces around.

            634s is very nice, for most this is the first IH pair. The there is also the 634sb the overdyed model with a bit fuller cut especially in your size.

            Check out the various threads, lots of great information.

            Best is when you measure a good fitting jeans you have and like the IH way and compare it with measurements here.

            Good luck

            Cheers,
            David

              Thank you guys the problem is I became so fat. My past nudie I couldn't wear it and I became fatter that is why I when to search some denims for me to wear it. As due to my big size waist and thigh. Therefore now I am finding one. And I went to search on 634s and sr and hear that is quite a good denim plus is a straight cut. I also have in mind samurai s5000xx and s5000vx21oz. I am choosing among this 3 since IH634sr is extinct

                            @ DD you should check out http://threads.srithreads.com/. It looks at detailed JP workwear 100's of years old. I've been reading the blog for over a year, some really really amazing pieces;

                            Below is a "modern" piece from the 19th century.

                              Can anyone tell me what their typical experiences with packages at customs Chicago ISC when usps is the carrier? My boots have been sitting since last Wednesday morning and never had a package sit that long before. I've tried emailing usps regarding it but as of now no response.

                                  Yep. Messaged John to see ifvthiscwas typical of his experience and he i fixated it is not. Told me it would probably be a good idea to get in the phone and start calling and keep him posted. I'm not the only one worries now.

                                        The internationsl manager told me that the last update showed they never left Japan. Total bullshit. So when I read the tracking off the computer screen in front of me she said "we can no longer speculate about the whereabouts of the package. According to the last sytem update the package is still preparing to ship. The shipper will need to open and investigation through ems Japan and they will have to attempt to locate it" and then hung up on me. In other words they are to GD lazy to do their job so they want Japan to locate the package for them in a USPS facility.

                                            Im sure they will get here eventually. I have been in contact with John. Hes going to be sending the investigation papers in tomorrow morning. he said he thought the post office was still open but they are preparing for Obon, and everyone (with the exception of Lofgren and crew… Im sure a few OTHERS as well) will be off for a week. Nevertheless, John is a great guy and I am both stubborn and persistent. Between the two of us I am sure we will get this all straightened out sooner or later. Hopefully sooner. This is the precise reason I despise USPS though. Anyways, thanks for the positive vibrations Davito.  😉
