IH-634-LB - Straight Cut Loom Breakers….
-
… but I'm not positive how i feel about the straight leg...
Hi @jordanscollected ,
this is a very special and unique gift of your wife. Congrats!As sabergirl and the Dion said:
The LB duck can’t be compared to IH-Denim.
Wash them frequently and they will soften up and fade wonderful!
But this duck will never drape like Denim (what I like).
If you and the LB can sit comfortable in the horse saddle, they will become your favorite riding pants, you can wear to work also. Or vice versa.
The straight legs take a backseat then ;). -
still drying. I'll wear them tomorrow.
First wash after a rather sweaty (in jeans) California vacation. -
Coming along fantastically well Jeff…......perfect Californian apparel I reckon.
What i expected was going to be 50 degree weather turned out to be in the 70's, so it was pretty hot. However I was expecting to wash after this trip, the heat just ensured it.
Cheers.

@jordanscollected what size is your pair? I like the relaxed fit.
-
These are a 36 in the straight cut. However we have a caveat…
My wife bought them for me and i then lost some weight and would probably fit a 34, hence the relaxed fit. I also had them tapered since i didn't realize they were going to be so Pipe Legged. I really like the fit as well even though they are a little baggy in the upper block.
Cheers

Great shots of your LB's @jordanscollected love the patch on these. always wondered what loom breakers were when you'd list them on the waywt thread.
-
I didn’t know either @RoxRocks86 , until I saw others posting. A couple years ago someone offered up a brand new pair on the forum, and my wife surprised me with them.
I know there aren’t many out there in the first place , but you’d think someone still has them in rotation. Lest we rename this “Jeff’s LB thread”.

God, they look so good @jordanscollected! Nice work. I was late to the game on this fabric and it kills me every time I see photos.
-
There’s been buzz lately about the fabric @Palmer, with discussions around the double
Indigo duck being ahead of its time.Thanks and I hope it gets made again, no leg twist here!

@jordanscollected Seems about right. You're basically the only one keeping this thread alive Just scrolled thru this thread & gotta say this is one helluva pair. Looks fantastic in all stages.
& your wife is awesome! Was this your first pair of IH bottoms?
-
They were my first pair @RoxRocks86. Though I had done a world tour with the 888’s before I actually got a pair.
I am fairly new (late 2017) to high end menswear and it took me awhile to discover Iron Heart while I navigated lesser brands. Therefore, I had 3 pairs of entry level denim that kept me from “needing” a pair from iron heart. Now, like many, I’m hooked but I still move slow in buying new stuff. My wife has big dreams that has nothing to do with clothing.

Update on the Loombreakers. 2 months short of 2 years of modest wear in rotation with the No Lots. why are both my pairs of IH denim a screw up and a broken loom screw up?

Great detail shots of your loom breakers @jordanscollected they are looking pretty sweet! Love it when it reaches this stage where the whiskers and combs start to pop.
