Iron Heart Jeans

^^The tighter the fit, the faster the fading. More movement/activity etc., also means faster fades.

Yea, they are pretty damn tight on me and I am pretty skinny.

[hypernoob]

I honestly didn't do anything. I put the jeans on the day I got them and never washed them or anything. They faded REALLY fast for some reason. I was told at SE that they wouldn't fade fast at all but they really did...

but you sure rocked them hard, do you cycling?

[PeterParker]

Nice fit and wear. Are they 301s? Dammit, I need a pair of 9301. Does SENY have a 31 in stock?

I do but honestly I probably only rode 3 times in the 3 months I had those jeans and it was after all the fading had already happened. I had a wallet fade 2 days after I started wearing them. And since I bought them in May and wore them only for the summer all I did was pretty much sit around lol

wallet fade in 2 days? dang that's fast bro! mine is 634, and there's nothing happen after I wore them like 1 month (2 weeks effective wear) here's mine

(the 634 is in the middle, sorry but this is the only recent pic I have)

nb: ok i got a little bit wallet fade, but that's from 2 weeks of effective wearing, not 2 days

[musicisdead]

Haha yea its pretty nuts

[cocoquangs]

I haven't really posted pictures or posted much but I thought maybe i should take some snap shots with my camera for the hell of it but I will try to take pictures with a real camera later and post it up. These are a lot lighter in person though but here are my 634s

The 634 cut is far FAR more open, it will take some SERIOUS time to get those to fade. Your not going to see much change until you hit the 1 year mark. You should see Kiya's 634s, probably the best iron hearts I've seen. He wore those for like 1.5 - 2 years straight to get his to look as good as they do.

SEXIH03s, about.....6-7 months inconsistant wear.

[jackers]

Has/will Iron Heart ever make the medium wallet in natural leather?

About 6 feet with shoes on. The jeans are pretty damn long

[warpnweft]

Thats one of the many appeals of IH jeans, its not contructed to fade for fading sake, it originated as a product that was aimed at durability which also makes a good complement to motorcycle riding; that one pair of jeans to have for life, especailly with the 634S's timeless cut. It may not have the history or intricacy as Sugar Cane or MFSC, but its a leader in its own direction.

I asked Haraki-san, when I was with him in New York 2 weeks ago to design a 100% calf leather wallet specifically for for me, once I have seen the sample and OK'd the design, they'll be up on www.ironheart.co.uk. It is likely to be a smaller version of the Corodovan medium wallet. Watch this space - I will post pix as soon as I recieve the sample. But be warned, we are working on Iron Heart time - It'll be done when it's done!

Around a year and some months old, washed at least a dozen times.

[thatslapz]

those look amazing. Post up some pictures of the repairs in the Denim Repair thread.

[slurrpee]

how much will the SExIH03 stretch in all categories?

[AdrianLee]

i've worn my sexih03's for a month, and they've stretched about an inch in the waist and maybe .1 or .2 everywhere else? Also take into consideration that I sized down so they were tighter (thus attributing to more stretching) to begin with.

Yea I sized down as well. The main thing you should concern yourself with though is your waist. I'm 'slightly' wishing I sized true to size to have a little bit more comfort in the waist and rise region. Each cold wash brings the measurements right back down again as well.

301S's since late March. Pretty much everyday. These are tremendously hard to fade or should I say they take their time. Sorry for the crappy pics; just decided to do a few quick snaps. They are a bit dirty. Being cold soaked now....

Any fit pictures? ^

Doubledown and photo, those jeans are what I hope mine fade to as time goes by. Both are awesome. +rep

[Osmosis Jones]

Should I soak my new 301s? They fit almost perfect except for the waist as it's a TINY bit loose but that will obviously go away when they are soaked.
