IH-301S
-
@rmc:
thinkin about pickin up a pair of 301s indigo but have one main concern…I know ppl said the loose weave allows for better ventilation but, can anyone shed light on how they compare to flathead f380's(i own a pair, so i wanted a reference)? Im a city guy so i go to a lot of bars/clubs and im afraid that I might be drenched in sweat with 21oz jawnz after a nite out...its either these or a pair of FH BSP's
IHs are a lot more comfortable. Them being 21 oz doesn't mean you'll be 'hotter' or anything… I've had BSPs and loved them, but prefer my SEXIH01s (301s are a slim cut as well so they're similar)...

I've been lurking here for a while an putting off signing up, but davichan's post made me do it.
@ Davichan, I have a very similar experience, got 301s-07bk 1.5 mos ago, loved them, had to squeeze etc… Went for 301s 2 weeks ago and your description is right on.
I looked at the tag inside the jawns and found that the OD tag, while hard to read, says W 31. Since they were unsanforized 31's (and probably measured 33" or so pre-overdye) the OD shrinks them to a re-measured 32, whereas the sanforized 301s is just that, a sanforized W32.
All in all both are excellent IMO.

Question about sizing…so my worn F380's measure 18" across the waist....should I purchase a size 34 and let it stretch 2 inches or get a size 36. Note that I have an athletic lower half, and would like to slightly sag a little more than my f380's allow. Also, i know these are slim jeans, but i dont want them skin tight. Really wish they made size 35....wat da ya think?

check thigh measurements. might help making a decision. not always is the waist alone the answer
We can do anything

sorry would you please define hip flare? im not sure i quite understand. are you referring to how the hip thigh area drapes? IMO a new pair of 301's if you hot soak and hang dry and if you wear them when slightly damp will provide an ungodly (in the good way) fit. no problems with hip area bulging out or anything like that

fiuhh, finally i have the 301S. hot enough if you wear it in Indonesia.

those look fantastic Septicsef.
and it looks like the first, second, and fourth pics show the most accurate color of the jeans?thansk man -hard to say i would say its between the 3rd and the 4th…..def darker than the 4th :-\

Just became the proud owner of some 301s. This is my first IH denim experience. I'm freaking amazed at the quality of these jeans. They are tight but contour perfectly. What is the consensus on the inseam shrinkage? I need to get them hemmed a few inches. I was wondering if I should soak them to get some shrinkage out of the way before I send them off to be chainstitched.
