IHxB01xRAW Beatle Buster 18oz Raw Japanese Selvage Denim Indigo

[Dion]

I too have the 18 oz edition on my radar. I love its character and hopepfully I'm going to be fortunate enough to grab one in the foreseeable future.

I've spent the last 4 years in the BB cut, I might have worn it longer than just about anyone. You guys make great points about it occupying a middle ground between the slim and full cuts, but if it really was a required niche then it would have sold more.

I love the BB's, I'll miss them, but Iron Heart can't invest in making a cut of jeans that simply don't move enough to justify the investment.

To add, it's actually 5 years.

1 in 18oz raw
2 in 25oz
2 in 21/23 UHR

I don't disagree - ultimately IH consumers decide what styles endure and what's a footnote in IH history.

Maybe just make it in one denim, whichever one would sell the most (I assume the 21oz)? That way the cut is still available, but IH isn't investing a bunch of money and time in making a less popular cut in a bunch of different denims. Even though my favorite cut is now the 666, the BB is a very close second, and the more recent 21oz measurements seem to have solved the only two things that kept them from being perfect for me (the rise looks to be a touch lower and the waist a touch bigger).

Almost a year, 2 soaks and probably 6 machine washes.  These are my favorite pair to wear to work and see plenty of action every week.  Feel like I need to get one more pair before they are gone forever.

Damn, they really look great. Very vintage for IH.

@johnny5799 what a great pair! I wish I could feel how soft they got. I'll bet they feel awesome.

super nice - prettiest denim in the IH line up imho

[Chruschtschow]

Found those on sale…
I'm a 40 in the 21 oz 888, what would be the better size, 38 or 40.
I couldn't find them on the IH homepage.

Thanks.

Sorry, for some reason the product page has disappeared. This is one of the reasons we leave things in the 'EXTINCT' category, so you can compare sizing on older models!
I managed to find the chart in excel for the more recent batch of B01xRAWs, obviously, no way to know if this chart is accurate to the pair you are looking at I am afraid..

[Chruschtschow]

Thanks.

40 it is. I remember buying a used B01 in 36 and I couldn't pull it up. A sanforized 21 oz might fit, but as this denim is raw, I take the 40.
And if it´s too large there´s still the possibility for a hot wash.
Too small is just too small.

About 5 months (1 soak, 0 wash)

grandiose jeans…..

[lazyoldsun]

"1/2 size down"

[lazyoldsun]

Great jeans. 

[lazyoldsun]

A few photos taken before I put these jeans "in deep reserve"

In fact (after shrinkage) these jeans turned out to be "sizedown" 1/2 size.
(as I noted earlier)

@Matt:
