Cold and wet November day.  25 oz. back in the rotation.

Thx Finn!

Giles, These are the very best quality jeans there are. The denim has softened quite nicely. And the stacks and navy, electric blue fades are amazing.

[Giles]

Nice one.  Love mine too and thank you.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

None finer.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Fading like crazy. Worn for 2 months non-stop.

[Filthy2123ozjunkie]

Last one.

Just read through this whole thread, these are my thoughts:

1. it may be crazy…but I definitely want these as my first IHs
2. Licorice Noose had some crazy fades
3. Haraki-san got jokes (how do you get away with having so many Harleys? "they are all painted the same color")
4. at one point there was a link to ironheart.jp and I followed it for a bit....found this photo.
   
   Mind. Blown.
5. how am I gonna convince my wife to buy me these for Christmas, but give them to me as soon as they arrive? Winter is a-wasting.

Great choice Irish.
There jeans are really something else!

Looks awesome!

I've just stocked a few of the Japanese version (35": inseam) to tide us over…..

[mr.dead]

Are the Japanese version the same measurements aside from the inseam? Would love to have this denim but I'd want some more slim. coughIH-555-XHScough

[Giles]

Exactimun the same…..

Hello all,

My name is Peter and I'm new to the forum. I joined because I just received my IH-666-XHS from Self Edge.

Well, I was just wondering how long the blisters on your thumb last after the initial buttoning up of these bad boys. Haha. This denim is formidable, to say the least. I'm really excited to start the journey with them though.

Anyway, I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. Oh, I'm loving all the pics people post of their denim evolution. Reminds me that I just might be able to tame these 25 oz.

[Seul]

Hiya lad!.. Enjoy this bastard as much as you can!..

[crankyfart]

you are not alone mate. when I first wore this bitch, I had real bad bruises on my thighs (reckon it was caused by the whiskers) and it lasted for around 10 times I wore it.

now this bitch is just lying in my cupboard. not sure when I will give it a try again to tame this bitch.

[Giles]

Honestly, it is worth the suffering.  Mine are like sweat pants comfy now….

[PSB]

I am certainly up to the challenge. Right now, it is like wearing chain-mail, but I enjoy the fact that you not only own the jeans, but the whole process of making them yours.  It is very rare in this age of disposable everything that an article of clothing could be worth owning for the amount of time it will take just to break these in a little.

I don't wear jeans to my construction job anymore, but when I did, I could kill a pair of (modern) Levi's or WeSC in a month with regular washes. Knee blowouts, crotch blowouts, shreds, rips, belt loops snapping, you name it, their days were numbered from the date of purchase.

I'm really excited to have finally found a brand like Iron Heart that takes such obvious pride in craftsmanship and quality.

[xtcclassic]

Amen to that.
