Sorry for the poor-quality pics.

I love this shirt. I got into Iron Heart jeans recently and have been on the lookout for a good denim shirt. I like this one as it's still a western style but more understated with the tonal stitching (less "flashy").

The medium seems to fit well. Very snug and like a glove but that would be my preference. While it's snug, I still have full range of motion......I just can't do too many push-ups or beers as there is no room for growth. It should NOT shrink and I assume there would be some "break in" from a comfort level (but again it's good now).

I was pondering hemming it as I would like it a little shorter but that seems risky and the wife doesn't think it needs it.

What do we think of this 634 fit?

The 666 is my cut. It’s the most flattering and works for casual events and dressing up.

I’m looking for a higher rise and more room in the top block for more casual and comfy occasions. I usually wear a 35 but this is a 36. It feels about PERFECT right now. I’m concerned it could stretch and get a little too comfy lol. I tried a 35 in the past and it seemed to poof out a little more in the but and was a little tight in the waist (now I’m questioning my memory).

What do yall think?

I better not like these 888s that are delivering tomorrow too. 🥲

@Brandrea any opinions on which one? The 634 looks about the same as the 666 and the 888 is a big jump.

The middle ground is the 555 but the rest of the cut is a pretty drastic change.

I'm not sure there is a good compromise.

Just ordered a medium. This will be my first IH shirt.

Will these shirts get any stretch?

As it's one wash will it not shrink?

Medium looks perfect but may be a little tight in the shoulders.

Thanks!

@Gavin666 wouldn't the hem be most important for boots and not the thigh?

@Cole They look great to me. Not baggy but not tight. This is my preference.

the 21 oz will stretch at least an inch in waist (maybe more if you get them wet and apply pressure).

It's just preference as to how close you want to ride that line.

I wear my jeans in (all) professional settings, so I like them to be form fitting and not baggy so I'll risk the tighter side.

I bought a sized-up pair of the 666s and my first pair 634s with the new releases and I'm hoping one will work for bloated / comfy days lol.

Also depends if you are tucking in shirts too.

@goosehd I’m assuming these will stretch about an inch in the waist as other IH fabrics do?

Y'all I went down the wormhole hard over the last year.

I'm OK with this as I had a goal to dress more "age appropriate" (46) and simplify my wardrobe (I'm an efficiency nerd).

I pretty much just wear IH jeans and a white t-shirt every day. However, I may put a sweater, polo, sports coat, button up etc. over it depending on the occasion.

I'm looking at a 12oz Selvedge Denim Work Shirt With Snaps - Indigo IHSH-326-IND because I love my 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt With Tonal Stitching - Indigo IHSH-33-T so much I want another similar shirt to rotate with.

Or the 666 or 777 in duck fabric as that would work well for office outfits and outside of work.

Thoughts for fun welcome....

Right now I have:

12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt With Tonal Stitching - Indigo IHSH-33-T - I love this top. I was born in Texas but live up north now. I love the western style but like how the tonal stitching mutes it a bit so it's not so flamboyant.

14oz Selvedge Denim Slim Cut Jeans - Indigo Overdyed Black IH-555S-142OD - These replaced my sweatpants and I manly wear them around the house, camping, hiking, skiing, etc. I like the high waist for comfort, but I don't tend to wear them "dressing up" and the butt gets pretty saggy with the high waist.

21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo IH-666S-21 - Probably my favorite pair and best all-around if I had to pick. The only downside is the wider hem is not great for tennis shoes or low top shoes (which I hardly wear).

21oz Selvedge Denim Slim Tapered Cut Jeans - Indigo IH-777S-21 - These are of course similar to the above. The lower waist can be less comfortable. The tapered hem is not very aggressive and after I wear them a bit I wonder if these are my favorite lol (over the 666).

16oz Slubby Selvedge Denim Type III Jacket - Indigo Overdyed Black IH-526J-SLBod - Good standard jeans jacket. I live up north so this can work most of the year. I don't like how black the OD is out of the gate but this looked darker blue maybe due to the slubby texture.
