Howling

One size up should be perfect after a hot soak.

I sized 2 up to a 33 in my f310.  Normally I'm size 31 in everything else (30w in IH 634s).  It gives a nice straight leg yet snug fit.  Highly recommend if you're nervous about the thigh area.   

As a one month owner of F310's, I sized 2 up and sure glad I did.  Did back to back hot soaks, they'll give a little back if they sense they need to... now perfect.  Also, make sure to hem after you're hot soak and at least a couple days of wear so you're stacks set in.  You may end up chopping too much off.

Just picked up the discontinued F310 at SELA where they still have a couple of these jeans in stock.  I'm a 30 in IH 634S and cannot believe I'm wearing a size 33 in these.  I really hope these guys give back some.  Did a hot soak x2 and used the blow dryer to take out some dampness.  I guess this lead to the 2inch shrink in the waist.  

After wearing my MBB's for over a month I've started to wonder. Why has iron heart not looked into a 50/50 cotton/ hemp denim? I've been sourcing some hemp canvas for a messenger bag product and found a 25oz organic cotton/ hemp fabric. 50/50 mix. Any thoughts? A denim would be slubby as hell and tough as iron.

Just thought it was worth it to ask.

I'm with you there.  Originally the first jeans had hemp fibers.  It's great during hot summers and extremely durable. 

Dingo,

I've just spent six minutes admiring those jeans. Wear them and be proud.

I take my hands and rub them up and down my thighs admiring the hairs, texture and slubbiness of my denim. Then realize just how perverted this looks in public.

Looking for recommendations for a nice solid black jean in a slim/straight fit.

For reference, I'm currently wearing Rogue territory stantons in a 33, naked and famous weird guy japan heritage in 33, iron heart x self edge x indo in 34.

Preferably easy to ship/order in Canada. Any advice is much appreciated.

IH Beatle Busters are slim straight: the SBG will fade to grey. The fabric is uniform but the durability and life is unbreakable. Also had a pair of Samurais 5000 a couple years ago that was a decent straight cut with amazing texture, high contrast fading. Checkout 3sixteen+ as well... Not too shabby. They feel like flathead or Sammy's Texas denim. Even though they're 18oz they feel much lighter.

looking for a new pair of decently hefty denim for under 150-- found these original Naked and Famous Indigo/Indigo slub for like 135.

yes or no?

and if not, some recommendations for denim would be super cool.

They're fine. Probably won't find any much better or with more "heft" like you want for any less. Those are too soft for me, but if you're fine with that go ahead and buy it.

i've been lurking on super future for years and learned a ton..but i'm still not able to purchase jeans that look good on me. so, really hoping someone can help. if i'm posting in the wrong place please let me know and i'll delete, or if this post is too beginners i can delete, too. thing is, i have genuinely been reading about denim for years but just can't seem to get a pair that looks good!

i'll post pics of two extremes on me - dior 19s (look way too slim/long on me) and LVC 55's (i think they look decent, my best attempt at jeans yet). i'm 5'7, 143 pounds..32 waist (LVCs measure 32 but seem saggy in the seat)

i was considering trying samurais or SCs (tried on 32 in 1947 sugarcane but seemed big) next (read through both threads), but LOST/overwhelemed as to the models to try. i live in the UK so not really any good stockists to try on my size in the brands mentioned or else i would go to a retail store!

anyways, what do you guys think would suit me - models/makes and the size i should try - totally open to suggestions! i can't afford to make any more denim mistakes just wanna get a pair right and wear them for years! i'm not into super slim denim or insanely baggy denim..just jeans that look comfortable.

pics attached any help much appreciated!

Try Iron Heart 634S in a size 30 or 31 assuming you're a 32. Don't go by first impressions of the initial fit when you try them on but you'll see that they're the gold standard and will transform into the fit you've been dreaming of. They usually stretch 2 sizes up and will give in the places that you're body tells them to. You wanted not too slim and not too baggy? These will listen to your needs.

Man, I agree with the previous comments. For any dudes struggling with the ladies, this may be the cure!

Borat: Do this have a pussy magnet?

Car Dealer: No. The vehicle itself would be a magnet.

Borat: If I give you good price, will you please put in pussy magnet?

I bought a pair of 3sixteens several years ago, about the time when they first featured on Self Edge's Online shop. The jeans were gawd awful and the denim felt like it was from some LVC's.

Fast forward a couple years, I walk into Self Edge LA intending to buy a 3rd pair of Iron Hearts and my fingers run across a pair of 3Sixteen+ 21BSP's. To make the long story short: These are the best jeans money can buy at the $300 price. Someone said it in a previous post but it's true, "these jeans should really be priced $80 higher."

I skipped the $400 pair of IH's; picked these up, soaked them, and I have no regrets.

The fabric is so unique and 18oz is the sweet spot in my opinion.

This company has come a long way from that shitty first pair of jeans I bought. Check out a pair of the 21BSP's. Best value, best pair you can get at an amazing price.

can someone help me with info on the 1978's? are they slightly tapered or straight? trying to decide between them and the 83'

thank you

just how that hard wood floor brings out the subtle rust, brown, and tan colors in your jeans... i bet wearing a similar color shirt would be a great combination.

IMO 007's are still a conservative buy (just 3 modern touch ups).

they still work with the wardrobe i have in my closet... believe it or not the STITCHING and the RIVETS differentiate this pair just as much as the dyed weft.

i have the 010's too... but have some regrets

the purple undertones are 40% of the overall color, and the indigo 60%. the purple jeans are unique because of the clash of the two colors - good news is its in a unique way - not like you raided Prince's closet.

anyone have advice on what tops to wear with this color? i've keeping it white, gray, black tops & tee's

hmm any xx-010 owners can show some fade updates?

i'm as curious as you... my xx-010 will arrive tomorrow but the biggest mystery is the potential of how they become. i wouldn't be surprised if they become more purple than indi
