I think I would wait on buying a pair of Skulls if this ever came into existence^^

Depending on how long you would mind waiting, you might actually want to hold off.

I remember this being called "pegging your jeans", wasn't it?

The final verdict is in on the Indigo SEXIH waist sizing.

The measured waist size on these run 2" smaller than tagged size.

Please do keep in mind that these will NOT shrink much at all, and WILL stretch an entire inch in the waist after only ten wears.

The Black overdyes will run 2.5" smaller than tagged size, same goes for above, they won't shrink much at all and will still stretch quite a bit.

now i dont like the fit on that LW, its too short for him, but the arms seem long.

You think the LW is too short?

You should see the Band of Outsiders polo undernearth, it's seriously about 2.5" shorter.

I've been tempted to buy some DH 19cms for awhile now because the fit is one of a kind. But now I'm wondering should I hold out? Are there any SE collabos in the works that are based on the 19cm cut instead of 21cm?

There's two more collaborations coming out this year..

SEXSC (Self Edge x Sugarcane) in September, a slim boxy cut with a low-ish rise with buttons from the Union Star, denim from the 1955, custom pockets, and more.. based around a rock n roll/glam theme from an indie American band.

SEXI (Self Edge x Imperial) in the fourth quarter which is based on the 19cm cut..

For now the SEXIH release is keeping us quite busy.

Actually, it is, by definition, a "Hype Blog." He "hypes" "newish" shit to get page hits.

I guess when i hear the words "hype blog" i think of a "sneakerhead hypebeast" type of genre... not thinking of the two words in the literal sense.

High Snobiety is far more than just a "Hype Blog"

David knows his shit and is into far more than just streetwear..

The two best quality T-Shirts i know of are by Loopwheeler and Flat Head.

Both are on another level of fit and construction.

Kiya - thanks for pointing out that the patch is the same size as the regular IHs.

Agreed - symmetry is death... although I do find most women who have symmetrical faces (Kate Moss for instance) very attractive. I dig the asymmetrical acurates - it's a big plus in my book! Shit, what are you doing up this late?? Almost 3am in SF no?

Yeah.. it's about 3:30am here in SF..

We were up late working on the final contract for the Self Edge X Sugarcane "band image"...

Sorry to break the news, but the patch is exactly the same size as the patch on ALL Iron Heart jeans.

The only reason they look that large is the camera angle.

Oh, and as a side note.. Symmetry is death.

Can you post a WAYWT for somebody else?

fuck it..

Here's Tays today:

Dita Pusher

Flat Head

SEXIH01

BRLoafers

Tayson just dropped by, he didn't have as hard of a time getting into these, he might actually be able to get into a 28, if he doesn't eat for a week.

I'll challenge him to a thin battle...

I've "helped" both of these men into very tight jeans and i can attest to the fact that Sidney would win the Thin Battle by half a size.

Jon Dobrowolski from Overdye Magazine drops by today to check out the SEXIH..

Shit. I want to come to SF just because of the potential yo-yo orgy. I've never yoyoed with people in raw denim before. Sounds like it'd be a lot better. I think a lot higher of selfedge now knowing they're associated with yoyoing.

Associated?

We're more than associated.

I far prefer:

What the hell is going on in that photo?

Look at the guy in the bottom right, he looks like he's faded..

Do it then please post high quality pics, i gotta see this...

My bad, gotta stop drinking that vodka...

Although i've got to say the jeans on this page don't look boot cut to me, what do you reckon? http://www.ironheart.co.uk/html/NewDesignMark2.html

Yeah, they don't look too bootcut i that photo, but those are the new bootcut they're producing. They haven't been released yet though.

Here's how the Iron Heart numbering system works:

461 = Bootcut

634 = Straight leg

S = Selvedge

1XXX = Black

XXX-B = Overdye

106 = Women's TomBoy

526 = Type 3 Selvedge Jacket

527 = Riders Jacket

SEXIH01 = Self Edge x Iron Heart Indigo

SEXIH01BK = Self Edge x Iron Heart Overdye Black

if i were to come in on march 30th with an old pair of jeans and some scissors can we pretend that i was able to skip school and stay till april 8th? yeah probably not, but ill probably visit anyways, and coincidentally bring the earnest sewns to die.

They wouldn't be put to death, they'd be brought back to life.

2007 = Year of the short shorts

A guy came into Self Edge today wearing Coated Slim Jims in Distressed Grey and they looked really cool, even for distressed jeans they looked really nice.

that's all that i have to add to this..

We have quite a few local motorcycle riders come into Self Edge only to buy Iron Heart jeans and jackets because they get a kick out of the fact that all the labels and theme behind Iron Heart is based around motorcycles..

Wow, an industry person with no credentials, please enlighten us all. Tell us all the cost of Japanese reproduction, collaboration denim. How much per silver button?

Seriously, if you are not sitting in on the deal between Kiya and Iron Heart, please shut the fuck up.

here's what this guy just PM'd me with:

funny how it seems to be a crime to give your opinion on an internet forum these days. you offended I think charging close to $400 for a pair of jeans is too much when you pay $40-50 to have them made?

40 to 50? go back to producing your swap meet jeans.
