Shoot. “Severe weather delay” won’t be here till tomorrow now.
To make you feel better, If you were based in Europe you’d receive it sometime next week.
If you changed Europe to Finland, you would be half accurate.

For most of mainland Europe, UPS standard is 2 working days. Unfortunately for some in the extreme north, extreme south and extreme east that stretches to 3 working days.
We are working on adding a costed option at check-out to allow customers to select a pimped shipping service.

I’ll survive. I’m pretty impressed that it would have made it to me in Canada in 3 days.

So, apparently the denim just needed to finish drying in order to shrink a bit more (the waist was a little damp when I first took my post-soak measurements). Here are my new pre-soak/post-soak numbers on a tag 31:
pre-soak:
- waist: 32"
- thigh: 12.65"
- inseam: 36"
post-soak:
- waist: 31.5"
- thigh: 12.25"
- inseam: 35.5"

1 soak 1 very light machine wash, hemmed by IH Crew, very little shrinkage, super happy with the fit. The denim is amazing. Thanks to all the Ironheart crew for their patience and great customer service. I am a very happy boy [emoji41][emoji106] even the buttons are ok now 🥵Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

^ wonderful fit @Chad mac and really very good with the shirt.
While I’m at it, thanks everyone for documenting the shrinkage. I’m pushing my luck with the waist on my pair after sizing down so it is good to see what I can expect when they get here.
This is a brilliant thread so far.

That shirt… seriously the one that got away! Anyways, everyones fits are looking good. I'm only here as the 555XHSib thread is quiet.

Great fit, Chad! Dang, you were right on target with the hemming. I didn't have them hemmed because I had no idea how much they'd shrink with a bath. Did yours shrink at all in the inseam?
I didn’t do any official measurements but had them hemmed long then did the soak and gentle wash then re hemmed as per Alex’s advice. I don’t think there was hardly any shrinking but had an interesting discussion today that US washing machines tend to run hotter. I’m very fortunate to live close to IHUK headquarters, 🥴
Mind you after today I’ve asked them to ban me, I’m running out of organs [emoji51]

I was meant to be on a year long ban, but needed a pair of lightweight jeans for the summer as going to Texas… so I had to break the ban. So i'll be asking to be banned starting now.

They don't get lighter than 25oz!
Ha ha, not what I meant… the 25oz were meant to be my last and then I bought a pair of 14oz today. So it's not going to well.

I didn't soak first, but with just 1 day of wear, it's evident that I could have gotten away with sizing down one more size… though I did get the largest waist measurement for my size
