@IronLungs sheepskin!

Correct - we hem with the correct colour thread to match the indigo jeans, as once the black fades a bit anything else looks wrong. If you prefer a different colour thread, you can specify that in a note at checkout

Sizing on boots is hard - luckily we will be here to help you

@SourPower Addict dont have fixed overseas RRPs - we have a rough idea of margin, but the JPY/GBP/USD will dictate the ultimate price at the time of launch.

This is what @Giles and I were working on in Japan recently...

If you want to be super safe, order a 35 and a 36, add this as a note in your order, then ask us to refund you for the pair you dont take prior to shipping (you will be out of pocket for ~24h). If you don't want to do that, then I think 35 with a larger thigh is safer

My gut feel is that you would be fine because of waist/hip fit, but if you wanted to be safe you could order a tag 32 and ask for a pair slightly larger than chart ~32.5" and see if there is an outlier pair

Perfect. Happy to help @harleylawhorn @twinning

Also, @harleylawhorn you have quite a few posts, so I assume you've shopped with us a few times before, but in case you were not aware, you can purchase a tag size 32 and ask for the crew to ship you the pair with an actual waist closest to xxx" as possible if you have a target you are trying to hit.

@CosmoSix5 i'm 193 cm, close enough

@harleylawhorn said in IH-1955S-142od - 14oz Selvedge Denim "1955" Vintage Tapered Jeans - Indigo Overdyed Black:

Would you say that I could get away with a 31.9 (size 32) if I currently have a well fitting 634s that’s sized 32.5 since these have a higher rise?

Assuming that your 634 measure 32.5 the way we measure, now, after wear and not immediatley after a wash, then your safe tolerance for another pair of similar fitting jeans (based on waist alone, clearly - i cannot assess how the leg would fit from the info provided) would be 31.5-32.0. This would allow them to stretch to about the same size.

If you are saying that you have a pair of 634S that measured 32.5 at the time of purchase, then the math is slightly different.

In my experience, the average customer has a slightly narrower "waist" at the point that the 1955 is designed to sit than the 634, which would support you fitting on the smaller end of the bracket i gave - so yes, I would predict that size would work for you.

@will6er stuffed the XL in there

Yeah, 2XL mate. I wonder if this style suffers from the same syndrome as the 101J..

Discussed here: https://forum.ironheart.co.uk//post/716257

Clearly differnet concepts, but with this style of sweater a slightly dropped shoulder looks good, and adds length to the sleeve which you miss just reading the chart

@twinning @harleylawhorn i agree, the model has been missized in these jeans based on the photos above. Sorry about that.

If you have unanswered confusion with sizing, what is it? We can try and work it out now.

Really? I dont think we are dissimilar height @Brandrea and I have positive gorilla syndrome, and these fit me just fine

The looms are fucking busy - to the best of my knowledge that is down to demand from large American corporations that now want made in Japan denim. I'm not going to watch the hour long 36 podcast, but if they are insinuating that people are buying denim to fuck with the market, thats the first I've heard of it, and it sounds fanciful to me

Bumping this again as we had some funny stuff going on with the post location.

@Jack will share some pics of the boots we have on order in due course

@bradleyjames as soon as its ready, it will be uploaded here. We always do prior to launch.
