IH-1955-UHR - Ultra Heavy Raw 1955 Cut
-
What's in your holster Jeansman - Colt 45?
Yep! I've got a specially-made umbrella handle lol!
-
My W31 1955-UHRs nearly dry after having been showered with water on the washing line using a hose pipe! Loving those big pockets, 4 button fly and lovely denim
-
Lookin good!
-
The inseam on the pair which were thoroughly wetted on the washing line and hung to dry now measures 35.75 inches. I didn't measure them before, but I assume they were 36.5 as that is the inseam on the spare pair bought at the same time. I'm assuming that the shrinkage will end up more than 3/4 of an inch, but then I'm used to LVC shrink-to-fit and haven't yet properly washed any Iron Heart.

Thanks Jeansman.
I went down to Gosport today, and measured all the pairs in my size. One turned out to have a 37 1/8" inseam. Sold to the gentleman with the reasonably long legs!
If they shrink by 1.5" to 2" then they'll end up somewhere between 35" and 35.5", so should be fine.

Very resourceful, Graeme - well done! I was once looking for longer lengths of LVC at American Classics and had them all strewn over the shop floor while they were measured - they would give me discount on LVC! Do you get a personal customer's discount at Iron Heart? If so, what is it? When are they open?
-
Yes, there is a personal shoppers discount. Usually about 10%, but it depends what I'm feeling like.
We live 200yds from the office, so if we are about, we are open…..
Cool! When are the 634 UHR and 666UHR expected? After a lot of agonising I could'nt bear to see the last pair of IH-805 slip away before my eyes, though…....!
Jeansman, you only get a personal shopping discount if you supply beer.
I figured that there would be small size variations between pairs. The 1955 cut is probably the best one for me, and since I thought I might be borderline with the inseam, it was worth giving a shot.
Giles didn't say anything about supplying beer! I might come down on 12 July if I can find anyone interested/available to come with me. So far: Not interested = 2, not available = 1.
