Iron heart 777s in 14 oz black

Tony Lama Ostrich Boots
J. Crew Chambray

This fit may be too big for the world.

Fit check. A little big in the shoulders, but think it will drape better after a cold soak and a few wears.

Some fits that are way too big for the world.

Woah boys. Just got my 140 IG in. Ever more insane in person as predicted. The sea of dark blue is filled with specks of electric blue. And yeah those copper buttons make the jacket. Also love rolling up my sleeves and the grey weft is a beauty.

The jacket is no joke. I mostly wear neppy & slubby soft jackets. See: oni secret denim, RGT cryptic denim, mister freedom awa ai. The 20 oz secret denim is pajamas soft. This def has some of that sharp cardboard feeling in the elbows. Will require some break in! Really makes me wonder what the LHT feels like because this is a stiff boy out of the gates.

Sizing is fantastic. It’s a bit tight in my belly. But I’m trying to lose 10 pounds right now so I’m not surprised.

For anyone snooping to figure out their size: I am 69 inches, 170 pounds currently, 41 inch chest. I got a size 38. I like slim fits and usually just wear tees under my denim jackets. 40 would fit fine likely if I wanted a looser fit or planned on wearing it with flannels/hoodies/sweatshirts.

Here are some awful pictures that will sell exactly 0 people on buying this jacket.

It was mentioned above, but I was the lucky guy to get their last Pale Rider from Division Road for $500 off at their end of season sale. A real steal.

This piece is wild. Makes most of my closet look like amateur hour! This one is cool as it has some markings from the factory in the sleeve.

Also, big props to Edith!!

Big fan of RGT. Will admit you have to be practically a stick for the stuff to fit right, but the almost modern western design with really wild fabrics is great. Most of my closet is RGT. Super small operation compared to other brands. Designed and made in LA.

Looks about time for a pop of indigo. Finally seeing some transformation.

Crappy mirror shot but these take all my problems with my 14 oz 777s (slightly too tight, waist too big, rise too low) and fix em like they were tailored for me. I wear a 33 in 777. These I am a 32. I was worried the thighs would be too big. But they’re just right

Thanks @Miiks for sending these my way from Finland to Joshua Tree. I have a feeling these are going to quickly become my daily drivers. My mister freedom awa ai lot 64s will have to take a breather.

So now after owning both the lefty 19 oz and this guy, I have to say I think this one is more uncomfortable than the infamous lefty. I find the arms & body to be slimmer paired with a pretty stiff denim. I am prob ~20ish wears in mine. Low wear count for sure. I honestly don’t reach for it as much bc it’s still pretty uncomfortable - perhaps tho I got a size too small. 38 (medium) in both. It has a nice slim, cropped vintage look. The lefty fits more typical modern denim jacket.

Love em both. Hope I can continue to break it in more to get @Oaktavia level fades. Damn that thing is a beaut.

@caithangkhanh love em. They’re turning out great.

@caithangkhanh are those the 21 OD? They’re looking phenomenal.

@Mizmazzle I think perfect cut for black jeans. For my blues I just love mister freedom lot 64s. They feel perfectly vintage.

My current blue obsession is their lot 64 outlaw midnights. Dark inky blue warp and black weft with fun frogmouth pockets.

I like more modern jeans tho for my blacks.

For clarification, this belt. It is a holy grail of a teacore belt.

@weftyarn can I get an ID on that teacore black belt?? Looks fantastic. The brown patina coming through is perfect. Need one!

Yeah makes sense! I decided to pass! I realistically probably need a 32 from looking at models sizes on iron hearts retailers in combo with the measured sizes.

I’m 167, 5’9” and usually like a 16.5-17 inch waist if lower rise. 16ish can work if higher. I’m usually more limited by the thigh. Need 12.2ish and can’t taper too strongly - 2 inches down from crotch I need at least 11.5.

Really want to try this black 21 oz and don’t love the low rise of my 777s so I was trying to make this work! Too often times though I’ve made the too tight of a thigh mistake! Waist is forgiving. Thighs are not.

Guess I’ll wait till the restock this fall and keep fading my 14 oz 777s for now!
