@Shane-B a jacket with a printed back design that will fade and flake off overtime like an old war time pilots jacket????

@EdH said in IH-684S-16-GER - Iron Heart Germany 16oz Selvedge Denim Relaxed Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo:

Is there a story behind the number?

I would assume a combo of 888 and 634

Larger in the “middle” (thighs and knees) hence why they probably but the 8 in the middle.

@NickD awesome jacket too btw!!!!

@Mizmazzle I have done that devilish combination before! Most recent pair of sneakers is a pair of lowtop Shoes Like Pottery which I don’t think would be too strange to pair with the flannel! On more of a “low profile” sneaker kick as of late. Back in my Highschool says I was definitely more of a big shoe guy (à la Air Force 1s)

Bought an extra heavy flannel from UES at Mildblend here in Chicago a few months ago, love this thing. I try to wear it as much as my outfits allow, I feel like it fits best with the combo of some boots for that real workwear look, but I’m mostly a sneaker enjoyer.

My band just released a 3 way split with two other neat local bands. For fans of post-hardcore, screamo/skramz. Check if out, and if ya like it we have an album out with our next in the works.

@Alex making my heart very happy, and my wallet very sad 🫶🫶🫶

@worn2fade I’ve seen the 1955 Reco as well for myself, unfortunately just unable to source a pair whenever I’m able to buy!

@worn2fade I’d love to see a pair with a rise like my vintage fit Orslow fatigues (14” front/18” back!), but I mean to be fair, they’re jeans ‍️‍️. I’d be plenty fine with the extra 1.5-2” in my size on the rise. I’m not necessarily looking to yank my pants up above my belly button, just looking to avoid crushing my family jewels haha

@Giles any rough idea on when we might get another update on possible release time frames for the new cut? Obviously not asking to flat out say when these are scheduled for, just wondering when the team might be planning to release the next little tidbit of info

@meatmarketdenim1 based on the majority responses similar to yours, I’ll give it time and just keep putting time into these. I noticed the fit slowly change on my 14 oz 634s with 90 wears and 2 washes so far. Slightly different still as the cut seems slightly modified for the lighter weight. Hoping the bulging goes away, because besides that aspect I love everything about this pair. The weight, the fabric, the room in my legs so I can live and breathe, just the bit of excess right around the crotch, but as you mentioned, sizing down would likely destroy my jewels!

@AdamJ As a fellow 6+ footer, I must move to the UK and join your staff.

Many thanks for the link!

@Giles these look killer! Mind if we get your dimensions/the size of these samples to compare?

@m4xime RELAXED STRAIGHT DROP DATE CONFIRMED????

@Xavras we thigh guys must be patient

@Xavras very possible, my fellow countryman haha. The funny thing is that my father has quite thin legs for his size— he grew up in Gdańsk, where as my mothers side of the family came from the fields near Płock

@Xavras non-lifter, just genetically large quad and calf muscles. A blessing and a curse as a descendent of Polish farming families. Arguably an “athletic” build (although I’m in no way in shape anymore, just leaner than I was the past few years when I was 60 pounds heavier).

@steelworker based on size charts neither would accommodate my thighs without oversizing the waist
