coming up on 3 months everyday wear. caught in the rain once. 100% soaked thru and wore until dry...lol. no wash yet

Got mine last week and haven't taken them off since! Super happy with them. First Iron Heart purchase and won't be the last. The team was very helpful thru emails too and helped me grab a specific pair of 32's. Thanks yall!

don't think I could have got a better fit on this one! looks great with a tee and can fit my uhf or a hoodie underneath. stoked for fall!

at about 5 months daily wear. great shirt to wear to work!

6 months, first wash.... despite washing inside out/cold/gentle and pulling them out before the spin, I still got the ugly washing machine fades. but i'm rolling with it! put some mink oil on the patch aswell

the cat loves it!

they're here (will post fit pics later)

These things are NO JOKE. The fit is absolutely perfect on the waist (surprisingly a big size 30 which I was hoping for) They are pretty damn tight on the thigh and knee but I'll live once they stretch a little

My concern is soaking them, I'm wondering if I should just go for it and get it done so I can get to stretching them back out.

Pre soak measurements-------
Waist: 16" across
Front Rise: 10.3"
Back Rise: 15.5"
Thigh: 11.75"
Knee: 7.6"
Hem: 7.2"
Inseam: 36.6"

snagged one in a size Large, opened the package put it on and haven't wanted to take it off since!

well I ordered the last pair of 555 XHSib from Iron Heart Germany. wish me luck!

2 months daily wear on these

iron heart with the rick owens is TUFF

I really want a pair of these one day

@boutsk this is the fit I'm going for. I'm 2" taller and stick skinny, I'm wondering if I should go with the Large anyways. I had TJ at Shop Vancouver measure their XL and it came up sounding way big so I don't want to end up making a mistake

@Oaktavia next wash I'll try the full hour! this time i really only soaked for 10 minutes prior to washing

after alot of consideration, I just pulled the trigger on an XL from The Shop Vancouver. I do plan on wearing it over a hoodie or flannel so I figured sizing up was the safer bet. I had TJ send me the narrower of the two he had in stock. fingers crossed!

just popped open a package with a fresh pair of 555's! seems to be a good fit. I have them rolled in about to where i'm going to have them hemmed. probably stack a little more i didnt measure

anyways, thanks to the IH crew for helping me pick out a good pair!

I think this one is going to be my first UHF. Really want one of the purple or navy ombrés if they ever get restocked!

@JunkPants haven't made the leap to 25oz yet. I did try them on once at mildblend in Chicago and they were BEEFY. currently I'm wearing 21oz 634s. gotta make a trip to the city tomorrow to get these 555s hemmed up and i'll be ready to bust these ones in!

damn I don't need another pair of jeans.... but the 301's have my interest. are they more like a 555 with more of a taper/smaller leg opening?? the "slightly higher rise" adjustment also sounds like it will be a good thing for me too
