I forgot to share earlier. Once they were fully dried in the morning, I staged them to spook my wife before work. She was more annoyed than spooked. Funny regardless.

@Mizmazzle the cut is amazing. I started with 888 for thigh room, have been dabbling with 1955 and this release got me to finally try out the medium rise. I was a little nervous hemming a new cut from gosport before trying them on but I read @yannis post about people converting from 888 to 634 and I totally get it now. I'm sure you'll be stoked once they fully dry!

@tvaillant75 my buddy is currently breaking in his first pair of iron hearts and he chose this pair. Here's the backs of his knees currently. I am breaking a pair in myself and I agree this does feel tougher than XHS indigo/natural.

My friends have heard me talk about the brand for the past year. One of decided to finally try a pair out! What better way to break them in than to camp.

@Mizmazzle our home came with a front loader and was mold ridden. We replaced all of the gasketing and did a deep clean. Now we make sure to leave the door cracked + wipe down the gasket after each use. It will usually dry out within a day or two and stayed cracked. May not be ideal but it does beat having the door wide open all the time. We also have a small laundry cove.

@Sam-OG it doesn't stretch, but it does relax a good bit as @Richard said a long time ago. I was in the same boat this time last year but held out and it is now my favorite shirt. If you size up at all it may look a little sloppy in all other areas.

Iron heart tops in general run slimmer compared to other brands due to their rider first focus. It's just something to get used to.

@Oaktavia I think it's perfect for a fitted look. Any more pulling in the button would be questionable. A size up would risk looking a little long. Great fit overall I'd say.

Thank you @Jack for the boot assistance. They are feeling better by the day!

Not the biggest stout fan but I kind of get it now...

@flannel-slut thank you. This was my only criteria when picking an n1

We have an irobot Roomba. Was wondering why the cleaning ended early this morning...

@Mizmazzle pretty sure triple! I think most of us would agree that it's hard not to do a full IH outfit once your wardrobe is taken over.

@gneicher sorry I just noticed you posted under the hoodie and not the zip up hoodie thread. Either way, I just tried on my XXL zip up olive in this fabric. I'm 2-3X in tops and the 2X is a relaxed fit for me as I like my hoodies. Not sure how much it helps since it's the zip up version.

Amazing.

@Yoprst I've had my pair for going on a year with roughly 6 months of heavy wear and 2-3 washes. They have definitely softened up but I can still tell they are heavyweight pants if that makes sense. Heavyweight sweatpants as many others have referred to them as.

@Mizmazzle I actually asked the IH crew this myself earlier today. I'm a 36 in all 888 including XHS. This is gonna be my first time trying out the 634 and suggested to try 36 as well since I don't have a major true waist measurement change where this rise will hit.
