IH-777-XHSib - 25oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Jeans - Indigo/Black

[gyom85]

Hi,
I would like to ask you for advice regarding sizing.

I currently own a 777-XHS 21 oz W30 (a bit small) and a 777-S 14 oz W31 (perfect fit). What size would you recommend for a 25 oz?

Thanks

@gyom85 I would wait until the next run arrives (expected soon ish) and once we've measured it, you can compare your best fitting pair to the new product chart

[gyom85]

Do you mean the size can vary between runs?

[goosehd]

@gyom85 sizes do vary between runs. Every new run is measured and we have a saying here on the forum to always trust the measurements. Tag sizes are only a guide, the measurements are key.

@gyom85 The key to nailing your fit is to watch this video:

https://forum.ironheart.co.uk//post/5619

Write down your measurements from the pair that fits you best taken exactly as shown in that video. Compare the published measurements to your pair and keep in mind that there could be about an inch in shrinkage (specifically the waist and length). The waist will stretch back out with wear, the length will not. The rest of the jean will shrink some, but not as much as the length/waist.

I always choose a size where the posted measurement is closest to my ideal with pairs that shrink. For example, if my jeans measure 30” at the waist, then I would try and find a pair in the 30-31” range. That takes into account the possible shrinkage that may come with washing.

Hope this helps.

From a far

I love your posts @twin and I've always wanted to ask about the inseam length that you have, since you don't cuff. What did you get them hemmed to, if at all? Did you get them hemmed before soaking?

I'm trying to nail down where I'd get a new pair hemmed down to, before soaking. Its a bit of a hassle to have to send things away to get altered. My current pair of 777 od's are at 29.5" and they fit great, but if I were to purchase an indigo/black pair, I would prefer maybe another ~1.5" for a bit more stacking with or without a cuff.

@Muzura I got them hemmed before the soaking. Leg to a 34.

[Gavin666]

@Muzura with to get them hemmed until after the fist wash to be sure. The leg length will rise after creasing and will also shrink after first wash/soak

Guys, I'm being confused now, do I take 1.5 inches longer so that extra length shrinks? Or what exactly?
Also, when this XHSib should be restocked?

[goosehd]

@FK971 if you want your final hem length to be 31” then you would want them hemmed to 32.5” to account for that potential loss.

thanks @goosehd

Any solid intel on how close we are to a restock date?

[AdamJ]

@bluemantra no updates since the last really. Hoping they'll be here soon

@twin I don't usually appreciate stacks all that much, but the fades on the front of your stacks are very pleasing to the eye.
