RE: SEXIH18 -Self Edge x Iron Heart - The Final Denim Jacket
I love it - thank God! Could've been an expensive mistake!
Fantastic fit, imo. Thanks Kiya, for recommending I come down a size.

RE: IH-301S
My 301S arrived from Self Edge today (I live in the UK, so it was a lengthy 11 day wait!).
H E L LÂ Y E A H . . . ! ! !
Was a bit concerned about the roomier top box (what with my current favourites being FH 2011, which are uber-tight up top), but everything seems to sit perfectly. Also, due to my own negligence, I failed to notice that there is no selvedge line down the seam, but that is one negative amongst many positives. Will post fit pics later today.

Awesome shoe..! -
RE: The Flat Head
Just received a pair of The Flat Head 2011 20oz from DC4 in Berlin.
http://shop.dc4.de/Men/Jeans/The-Flat-Head-2011-20-oz-Heavy-Denim-Slim::867.htmlDamn these jeans are the nuts! The fit is 'kind of' similar to the IH-666S 18oz RAW after a hot soak. The front-rise is a lot higher than my other Flat Head (F2001)..
Lovely, lovely denim… Will try and get some fit pics up soon.

RE: IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered
You will get more shrinkage if you place in hot water with some sort of lubricant and agitate the hell out of them. You are trying to reduce the frictions between the warp and weft yarns as much a possible.
I totally get what you mean (I think)…. I'm gonna try that, as I've not washed my IH-666S yet. What kind of lubricant do you use to reduce the friction? Do you literally mean 'lube'? pictures Beavis and Butthead giggling or just something to get between the yarns, like Woolite..??

RE: IH-526J Indigo 21oz Selvedge Denim Type III
Heh heh..!
Came back to read the thread after already having chosen the indigo…
Great minds think alike, it seems!
This jacket is the nuts... have taken to wearing it around the house..

RE: IH-526J Indigo 21oz Selvedge Denim Type III
I couldn't decide whether to go for the IH-526J, or the IH-526Jod, so Giles and Paula sent one of each out to me so I could try them on and send the one I don't want back to them..
Having trouble deciding if truth be told. Love to keep em both but the missus would kick me out.
Anyone got any advice?
The indigo…
The over-dyed…

RE: IH-526Jod - Overdyed Type III
I'm thinking about getting the last large 526od. Just wanted to know how it fades over time.. Does the indigo come through or does it fade to grey? Thanks.

RE: IHSH-33-IND - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo
After a 60 degree wash and a reluctant spin in the drier the shirt now fits perfectly (thank feck!) . Not getting washed again now for a good long while!

RE: IHSH-33-IND - 12oz Selvedge Denim Western Shirt - Indigo
Bought this beautiful garment in an XL a few days ago, but unfortunately it's a tad too large. I gave it a hot soak to shrink but it did little to its size. I have it in a 60 wash as I write - hopefully that'll tighten the fibres along with a spin in the drier. I only need to lose 0.5 to 1" across the chest. Will post fit pics once dry.

RE: IH-666S - The Devil's Fit Indigo - Slim Tapered
Wondering whether someone with a tad more Iron Heart experience than I can help… I don't want to dye the hem of my sweater by wearing it at the same time as my 666S, but I do eventually want to wear grey sweats with my 666. How many soaks/washes until the dye transfer ceases? Approximately?
