Hi. Just purchased that jacket. I would like the members advice about the size. Do you think I should go one size down ? I will not layering with thick cardigans as I live in a mild climate. Thanks.

Hi to all the members. I have just received my 18 oz for vintage denim. I would like to thank you all. The pair is really comfortable by the first wear and the fabric is really amazing as you could see in the attached photo.

Thanks to all the members for the help that havr provided to me.

@AdamJ:

@Sisyfos Yes, you can expect approx 1" (2.5cm) stretch in the waist, so they'll end up around the 94-95cm mark

Thank you very much.

Hi ,  i found a pair of this with waist 92 cm . My ideal waist size is 94-95 cm . Do you think after some wear will stretch to the desirable waist ? Thanks in advance.

@Sisyfos:

I have already measure my perfect Jeans and the waistline is 94-95 cm . Do you think i would be ok with the 90 cm pair after stretching ?

Probably not. An inch is 2.4cm, they will stretch about an inch. You need a pair around 92-93cm. Get in touch with the shop via shop@ironheart.co.uk and they will try and find the perfect pair for you.

Thank you.

@Kasi:

You making it too hard on your self…
I have brought all my jeans from Gosport either you size down or go up.
For me waistline is important...

They need to be worn snug, they will lose up..
Find your perfect jeans measure them..

Bingo you will have you answer.

Hi Kasi . I have already measure my perfect Jeans and the waistline is 94-95 cm . Do you think i would be ok with the 90 cm pair after stretching ? Thank you.

I really have a hard time to find an explanation about the differences of waist measurements between Iron Heart official measurements and 2 retailers that stock that specific model in size tag 36 . They measure with different method than Iron Heart , that being said "they put it flat on a table,take a measuring tape and they measure form left to right fold of the waist in a direct line". I can understand that the different method , may explain some differences , but by my experience from other pairs the differences are small. The one retailers said to me that the model they have in stock is 88 cm and the other retailer said to me 90 cm . The official measurements are 93 cm . Could any experience member advise me if i should purchase one of that pairs or not ? Ideal i want a waist of 94-95 cm . Thanks in advance.

I understand that , but such a large difference isn't strange ? Thank you for your reply.

Hi , i found a pair of these in size tag 36 from an official retailer in Germany . I asked them to measure for me the waist size and they said to me that is 88 cm . The site here says that size 36 is 93 cm ( which is waht i am looking for). I know hat there are differences from pair to pair but isn't 5 cm an enormous difference ? Thanks.

Thank you for your reply. It seems that the best tag for be would be 35 but unfortunately 35 does not exist in the most models of IH.

There is variance in the actual v tag size in all jeans.  Measure a pair you already own the way we do, then get in touch with the crew @ shop@ironheart.co.uk

My one and only pair until now is the IH 777. The fit was great from the first wear but I would like a cut with a higher rise and I am also searching for a heavier fabric. I wear jeans with brogues such us Trickers Bourtons but I don’t wear boots. May I ask I you suggest me to try the cuts 634 - 666 or to try the 555 cut ? Thanks.

Thank you for your reply. It seems that the best tag for be would be 35 but unfortunately 35 does not exist in the most models of IH.

Hi to all the mebers . This would be my second pair of Iron Heart. My waist is around 36.8 inches. I see that the tag 35 is 35.5 inches and the tag 36 is 35.5 . I usually prefer to wear my Jeans unsoaked and unwashed , but definetely i am going to wash them once or twice a year . My i ask the mebers opinions , if any of these tags are going to fit me ? Thanks.
