Thank you for the welcome. Considering I very snugly fit into the thigh of a size 34 634s, does that pretty much eliminate any of the slimmer/tapered cuts? I would kill for a pair of 634s with a 8-8.5" hem.
And I really wanted to love the IH boot collabs, but they are just so darn bulky and inelegant. Guess I'm looking for a more classic work boot (i.e., classic RW or Alden) but I can't fault IH for trying to stay to true to its functional-motorcycle spirit.
From naturally having a larger lower body (also being 6'2") and a lot of strength training, I have a miserable time finding anything that fits me properly. My TTS is a 34" waist, 13" thigh, and 10" knee. Furthermore, my thigh doesn't taper all that much. It is impossible to find anything that fits my top block/waist without having a hem that looks like a parachute pant. My first foray into raw denim was A.P.C.s New Rescue, and I kid you not, it took me 2 1/2 years to stretch those suckers out in the thigh (they went from 11.25 to slightly over 13" in thigh). In the process, the waist got pretty distorted (now 36" from tag size 32).
After doing a fair amount of research, I made the leap of faith and recently purchased a pair of size 34 634s's. The moment I put them on, my jaw literally dropped. I'm working on breaking in the thighs and knee a little, but I have never had a pair of jeans fit like these. With a frame like mine, I believe the 634s is the closest thing I'll ever get to a tailored fit and I feel I can safely say Iron Heart has a customer for life. Now I just need to find some killer boots.
