IH-684S-16-GER

Got my new Iron Heart 684s today and I’m seriously impressed.
This might honestly be the best fitting pair I’ve owned so far. Love the balance of the straight leg fit.
Super comfortable right out of the box and the denim feels amazing. Very happy with these.

@drewfonse I totally agree! Thank you brother.

Hey everyone, happy new year!

Just wanted to share a few fit pics and some brief thoughts.

I was really glad to see Iron Heart still had a size 36 available. This is a couple of sizes up from my usual 21oz 888s, but that was a deliberate choice as I was looking for something a bit more relaxed overall, while still staying within a cut I know works well for me.

The 14oz denim feels great so far — softer and more forgiving than my heavier pairs, with a nice drape straight away. Combined with the roomier fit, these have been extremely comfortable from day one, which is exactly what I was hoping for with this purchase.

As always, many thanks to the Iron Heart team for the fast shipping, accurate measurements, and consistently excellent service. Much appreciated.

Thanks for looking.

Had an xl in my cart, and a few seconds later, right before I was about to checkout, it said out of stock literally gone in 60 seconds

Just wanted to give a quick update:
I’ve now received my shirt exchanged in XL instead of XXL, and the fit is spot on. Couldn’t be happier with it.

Huge thanks to the Iron Heart team for the help and for the incredibly fast turnaround on the shipment. Really appreciate it.

@jordanscollected I actually packed it away — turned out mine was one size too big according to my wife. Luckily there were still a few left in XL, so I’m really looking forward to getting it swapped for the right size. Sending my return package tomorrow. Cheers!

This is the XXL on me, worn with just a t-shirt underneath. I’ll be layering it through the winter with a henley thermal or a thin hoodie, and I think the fit allows for that. Maybe the XL would look a bit sharper, but it would probably be too tight in the chest. It’s already a little snug under the arms, but I think that will ease up with wear. Loving the details on this one!

Got a XXL! Thanks again for the feedback on the sizing in my last post. I think this will be great, maybe with some room for layering.

@jfox1980 and @dugafola thanks a lot for the great input. I will try to grab an XXL size for this one.

Hey guys,
I’m looking for some sizing advice on the IHSH-293-OD. I’m torn between XL and XXL.

Here are the measurements from my best fitting shirt, measured the Iron Heart way:

Shoulders: 49 cm

Length: 77 cm

Chest (P2P): 59 cm

Waist: 56.5 cm

Opening: 57 cm

Sleeve: 67.5 cm

Sleeve opening: 11.5 cm

I really like the way this one fits — not tight, just a comfortable regular fit.

Looking at the size chart for the IHSH-293-OD, it seems like I am in between sizes XL and XXL? I’d really appreciate your thoughts or experience with sizing on this particular model. This will be my first CPO, and I've never styled a garment like that before.

Thanks a lot in advance!

@WhiskeySandwich Thanks, man — good to hear! Yeah, sounds like we’re in the same boat. I actually like the fitted look too, but that soak trick sounds clever — never tried that before. I might give it a go next time they start feeling too snug after a few beers
Only thing I’m a bit worried about is the first wash — hoping they don’t shrink too much and end up too small.

I’ve worn these jeans for about 120 consecutive days. They started out a bit too tight, but I decided to push through it. They’re still snug around the waist, but comfortable overall. On days after a bit too much beer and snacks, I do wish they were one size bigger — but at least that encourages a healthy lifestyle

Compared to my 888 25oz, which is pretty baggy, these almost look tight in comparison. I don’t have side-by-side photos, but what do you guys think about the fit at this stage, on this pair?

Thanks for the feedback guys, much appreciated!

Finally got my lefty in xxl, I've been waiting for this for a long time! Feels like I got the size right. fits well over a t-shirt, but at the same time comfortable enough that i can wear a hoodie underneath. the length could be a bit shorter for my taste, but that's often the case with my body and trucker jackets. what do you guys think?

@Boit thanks a lot for your helpful answer good sir! I think I'll just try to stay away from the car and the couch for a little while these then. But it's also tempting to experiment with a little more frequent washing as you said..

This may be a stupid question, but I've had these on sleep until now, when the temperatures higher, and my beloved 888 25oz and 21oz is taking a little break, until the temperatures drop. The thing is that they bleed a lot of color. My fingers and nails are darker, just by putting the jeans on. I fear that my lighter/grey car seats will take some "damage" along with my couch etc. Does it help giving them a wash? I usually have at least 200+ wears before I wash my IH jeans for the first time, and now I am afraid that it will loose fading potential, if I wash them now.. any tips are very welcomed

@Fades-for-future thank you brother. That is good to hear
