IH-NO-LOT - 21oz Selvedge Denim Super Slim Tapered Cut Jeans - Overdyed Black
-
These just arrived… amazing how amazon takes weeks to get here from 100 miles away, yet Iron Heart takes 30 hours from London to NY. Thanks!!
I really like the fit right out of the box, when I compared the measurements to a couple other pairs they just seemed too good on paper, I think they are great for me. I have trouble finding a good taper that’ll fit my thighs typically.
Really looking forward to these fading... thanks for “messing them up” lol
What size did you cop?

Hey
@neph93
For some reason they feel like the fit I worn few years back, the 666 18oz
Devil Fit.Similar fit to that.. they feel good.
Breaking point they soft already.Am gonna wait later for 555 mad black to happen in 25oz only happening in 888 at the moment.
Anything 25oz it mine am buying.. in the new drop.

Long time lurker and owner of some 888s-21oz for over a year now (plus some other IH stuff)….
I had to send the 888s in for additional knee-down tapering to achieve the fit I was after. Aside from loving OD and Indigo x Black material, this cut seems pretty nice. However for Iron Heart's "most tapered jean to date," it still isn't very aggressive. FYI I'm not after the 'skinny jeans' look (that many people where I live in LA wear); I just prefer a ~7" leg opening with a somewhat relaxed top block. Other off the rack examples would be Momotaro's High Tapered cut, Pure Blue Japan Relaxed Tapered cut, and more.
This NO LOT pair on paper measurements seem almost identical to the 555 cut.
Am I missing something? Slightly bigger thigh and knee than the 555?Thanks

I would say you are missing something. The 555 is quite slim, but not aggressively tapered. The tapering is all in the thigh, with very little below the knee. The 777 is much more aggressively tapered than the 555. This is more tapered than both. It is what happens between the measurements that determines this.
As for carrot cuts, I’ll never say never, but I don’t think they’ll be on the IH radar anytime soon. Doesn’t really fit with the overall aesthetic. It took Haraki-san a long while to embrace anything other than the 634. Even this cut was a (happy) accident.

Hah, carrot cuts.
After reviewing this a bit more, it looks like this has the top block (rise) of the 555, with the thigh-down cut more aligned with the 777. Comparing size to size on the NO-LOT vs 777, I am still seeing the 777 smaller by 0.1" to 0.2" in each dimension for the following: thigh, knee, leg opening.
When you mention 'between the measurements,' I'm not seeing how that would work out if the thigh-down measurements across the board are slimmer/smaller in the 777.

Bigger than the 555, these are very comfortable to wear.
Appreciate the input! They fit you well.
