Iron Heart Jeans

[Seul]

Man, can't wait to get those WTs in my hands... Compared to the Japan tour, they will be epic!..

[orlylow]

can't decide whether to make IH or samurai my next pair of jeans.

[Max Power]

depends on your favored cut and denim type, i think. They're both great brands, but very different approaches to the same stuff.

[shoreman]

I think you know what kind of response you'll get in here.

[beatle]

mhhh, arrrh , how about you get some Iron Heart´s ?

[Megatron1505]

Would you walk into a Toyota garage and say to the sales staff "I can't make my mind up between a Toyota and a Nissan?".

[orlylow]

mhhh, arrrh , how about you get some Iron Heart´s ?

very viable option.

looking for a slim cut, 19-21 oz is fine. looking at the beatle busters/666 or 710xx/0500.

[jacoavlu]

can't go wrong with BB or 666, but certainly they're different cuts

and different denims (in some variants anyway)

[Max Power]

the BB are not really slim. IH 301, 666 or Samurai S003JP/ 710xx would be suitable.

IMO IH have a very neat and clean denim, the fabric of Samurai has a different charcter, more slubby and irregular. But in the end it's all personal preference and I love both brands. I just don't understand the current "hype" around slim heavyweight jeans. Seems a bit contradicting or driven by fashion. A classic straight cut will do as well or even better.

i'd like to see more of the 7301s, so pop on over to Self Edge and cop a pair--if your size is available--and report back.

this...

i can't be the only one wearing these, so please

[laxlife1234]

Welp, the 666 are actually a bit slubby. I was thinking to myself if these were slubby or if it was my imagination and I read on the product page they actually are.

I can say owning both IH and Samurai they are both my favorite jeans. I also own the 666OD and that is by god my favorite cut on a jean. But if you are going for samurai go for the 710, it is a classic cut that can be sized to be skinny or a straight leg cut. The main difference I would say between IH and Samurai is that fabric like max said. Samurai has a very rough texture on pretty much all of their jeans while IH's are very soft but thick.

I would personally try one of them out if possible and if not if you are looking for a skinny cut go with either the 666's or 301s but if you are looking for a relatively slim cut go for the 710s. That's just IMO though.

Wow, crazy coincidence. I didn't see your post until after I posted that last message - hadn't refreshed the page in a while.

[beatle]

actually - slim fit is not defined by taper only ...the Buster is indeed a slim fit but suited for cycling and doing stuff without exposing ur crack

[TheNorthern]

no, they are not.

the sig 21oz denim is sooo smooth and cleanly put together.

Welp, the BB are actually a bit slubby

[An Oxymoron]

decided to throw my busters in the wash and tumble dry finally....not really sure if theres some special protocol for washing these but oh well, we shall see how this goes.

meant to say 666, I was thinking of the BB's when I typed that. I fixed it though.

you cannot go wrong with IH or Samurai. Get a pair of both and alternate with a huge smile on your face

This is what I do

[shinobi2000]

t. I just don't understand the current "hype" around slim heavyweight jeans. Seems a bit contradicting or driven by fashion. A classic straight cut will do as well or even better.

hmmm...quite a bit to discuss. I don't think it's "hype". I don' t see anything wrong with wanting the best of both worlds. With certain body types, slim cuts just look better. I'm a skinny guy with a thin waist, no ass and stick legs. Even with "classic straight" cuts, I look like a hip hop poseur, like a rap star wannabe from the mid 1990s. Slim cuts just look better on me. But that shouldn't preclude me from getting heavyweight denim. I love the stiffness of it, the way it fades and the character of the texture. Therefore, I like slim heavyweight jeans. I don't think that's "hype".

[swiss-jeansfreak]

For my taste I like to wear the pants rather loose then tight. You'll receive better fading result structure then on thight worn ones. But it's probably a personal taste like mentioned by others before.

My thoughts exactly. The point is to wear jeans that fit your body. If that means buying a "slim" or "skinny" cut then so be it. But wearing jeans that fit like sweatpants is silly.

or buy a pair of WH and Ooe and alternate with an even bigger smile and stay true to the original denim spirit...

[TheNorthern]

that is what i'm about to do as well.. very excited.

i own a pair and absolutely love them. the fit is perfect for me.

I have strayed outside of IH and I'm super glad for it. IH makes awesome jeans but so do others. No reason we shain't spread the love !

[Max Power]

^That's what I always said and got criticized for.

[beautiful_FrEaK]
