@Max:

perfect fit indeed!

Yes, we should be deeply grateful, that Giles and his team makes its possible to purchase all those fantastic IH - stuff from Japan . . . . and of course we are grateful to our families, that they allow us to do so

Is the leg opening too big for stagging?

[Giles]

No…

@Giles:

No…

Thanks Giles

The 18 oz. Beatle Busters are my favorite Iron Heart jeans … and I've had a few, including the 1955-UHR, 633s, and 634s.  The denim feel and weight is just right and the fit works well for me, with a higher rise and pretty trim down below.  Good work Iron Heart and thanks to Matt Winch for sizing assistance.

Do these have the belt-loops sewn into the waistband? Plus, is this the very same 18 oz as from the 666S or was it modified for the second run??

^^ Can you post more pictures and details of the worn in pair?

[tropicall15]

Over one year of wear.
I havent worn them since I started on my 3009s but I plan to head over to SESF soon to get them repaired.

Been eyeing these in a size 36. Can anyone tell me how much shrinkage I can expect in the thigh and knee once the all the shrinkage is out?

[Giles]

About 3%, but they'll stretch out to pre-shrink….

[Broark]

If anyone has freshly washed measurements of these in a size 36 I'd be interested in seeing them.
Having worn the world tour 666SII jeans it's made me realize I like the cut from the thigh down, but I need more rise.
These jeans look like they have it while maintaining similar measurements.
Just kind of thinking out loud at this point, don't need jeans right now but I'm interested in the 18 oz. denim.
But I know there's some other good denims coming down the pipes soon too!

^ +1.

I need a pair of ironhearts in my life again and have my eye on these too. The 666s fit pre soak but was too tight. Hoping to get more info on these to see if I should pull the trigger.

My pair is in with a simple hem and repairs on two other jeans at SESF, going on almost 2 months where's my pants

A staffer said their repair person left!  Fingers are crossed.

@Haddtoo 555 - yeah, rain left to start her own company "Indigo Proof" and they do great work. Might be worth asking SE to send them back and ship out to them? Just a thought!

@Appfaff

Thanks for that. My current work pair 2634's are in need of repairs I really need my old work pair back, 666 SB's, don't want to start a new pair. Thought about going with carharts until I get them back.
