FS: Warehouse 800XX size 36posted in Stuff for Sale
For sale: Warehouse 800XX size: 36
Slim straight fit. Memphis cotton unsanforized selvedge denim is woven on Toyoda G3 shuttle looms. Period-correct vintage details, hidden back pocket rivets, deerskin leather patch. Factory hemmed, length not altered.
Worn a few times. I washed them using my usual method of inside-out warm wash on hand wash cycle, tumble dry until damp, then hang dry. Washed this way probably three times. The run really small for tagged size and are far too small and tight for me. There's no shrink left, but will stretch 1.-0" 1.5" in the waist with a few wears.
Some signs of minor fading at points of high wear such as belt loops and top of waist band. Really nice denim. Stitching on the left front pocket has come loose.
Waist straight across: 16.5"
Waist aligned: 17.0"
Front rise: 12.0"
Back rise: 16.5"
Thigh at crotch: 13.5"

For Sale: IHSH-13-BLU 10oz Selvedge Chambray Single Yoke Western Shirt - Blue, Size XL

RE: IHM-29-BLK Alpaca Lined Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Blackposted in Jackets
I live in the mountains of CO, in the Vail area. We definitely get cold temps here in the winter, but not as cold as where @neph93 is. I'll only be wearing this N1 when it's really cold and I'll have some type of heavy flannel or denim shirt underneath. I don't wear multiple layers like heavy sweaters or cardigans. Worst case scenario is I'd wear an extra insulated layer on those scarce occasions when it's a high of -10F.
I did speak with the IH crew prior to purchasing, and was advised that given my stats an XL would suite me. Hoping to hear back from them here, or I'll contact them directly.
Thx fella's. mpp

RE: IHM-29-BLK Alpaca Lined Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket - Blackposted in Jackets
Gents,
I just copped this N1 BLK size XL f/ the outlet. Been looking for a proper winter coat for literally years. This should do nicely.
Opinions on fit? I have an IHxSE type III denim jacket and the blanket lined riders jacket both in XXL. I wear IH westerns in XL. In fit pics I have on an XL UHF under the N1. I think this is on the edge of being too large, but acceptable. I could have gone w/ and L, but wasn't available at the time.
Cheers!

RE: IH-888S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigoposted in Bottoms
When someone just says thigh, to me they're referring to the thigh measurement, either at the crotch seam, 2" down, whatever. And I've heard several guys refer to the 888 as having bigger thighs than the 634, so that's what I thought he meant.

RE: IH-888S-21 - 21oz Selvedge Denim Medium/High Rise Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigoposted in Bottoms
I’m telling you, I used to think that the 633 was my favorite but the rise and thigh of the 888 have me bowled over atm. I might need to get some 21oz 888 next.
I have to ask/address this statement, as I've seen it come up several times, both here and other places - where does/did the notion come from that the 888 has a larger thigh than the 634, and therefore the 633? I'm not going to dig for it too much, but in Giles' original announcement/description of the 888 was that is was based on the 634: "New jeans cut. Higher rise than IH-634 - particularly at the back. More taper from the knee than the 634." The first iteration had the same thigh measurements as the 634 in the same fabric. Shortly after the first release, some guys were asking/requesting a larger thigh for subsequent runs, but the response was that it was selling so well it wouldn't be changed. When I've compared the 634 to 888 measurements in the same fabric, the thigh is the same with an expected small amount of variation.
I get and acknowledge that each version in different fabrics will have slight variations in measurements. One of our fellas on SuFu had an OD 634 version that looked skin tight, like a 777. He's a tall, lean, athletic guy with bigger thighs, but not a gigantic weight lifter build. They were too tight for him, and looking at the fit pics it was understandable. I think that was an extreme case of a 634 variat being unusually slim.
The 633 is SE's proprietary cut, and seems to be continually evolving with each release. Every variant that I have looked and compared seems to be a bit different from one to the next. But in general "taking their famed 634s and tapering the leg for a smaller leg opening and also lengthening the inseam by a few inches.", it still based on the 634.
Could it be that you're comparing a 633 variant that happened to have smaller thighs than a standard 634?
My point to all of this is that if the 888 is/was not intended to have bigger thighs than the 634, let's put that notion to rest once and for all.
edit: wow that was unintentionally long winded…

RE: Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?posted in Future and Planned Products
@Denim:

Nice mock-up. IMO, IH's chest pocket could be slightly larger, and raised higher to align the the upper pleat stitch.
