My 633s measure as follows: Waist 36 Thigh 13.5 Knee 9.9 Opening 8.8 Rise 11.75 Inseam 32 They are definitely a little over spec. Hm. Odd. You could drive a bus through that hem! Keep in mind that being tapered to 32 is going to affect that number, though, since they typically run what, 34 or 36 on the inseam? It does seem to be a pretty drastic taper through the thigh, though. Well, the previous owner had them hemmed, so I don't know what else is going on here. Sucks. They're really too wide for me. Hope I can sell them to someone that likes a wider leg. Edit: impulse buy. 32 really is the shortest I can go, and I really hated not being able to cuff these. More than I thought I would. |

Ok, not more taper, but thinner thighs and legs. The taper is probably more dramatic on the 633s. But it starts wider. From Self Edge - (Don't have the 666s measurement on their site)
IH 633s-21Waist 36.5 Front Rise 11.7 Thigh 13.3 Knee 9.7 Leg Opening 8.3 Inseam 36.5 From Ironheart.co.uk - (Don't have the 633s measurement on their site)
IH 666s-21Waist: 37 Front Rise: 11.4 Thigh: 12.5 Knee: 9.1 Leg Opening: 8.5 Inseam: 36 Yeah, thats what I was saying...the 633 has a more drastic taper. Bigger top block for guys with some legs but yet tapers to a nice size cuff opening, well at least for the waist sizes on the lower end of the spectrum. |

I drunkenly messed up my first measurements. They're actually dead-on spec.

I had to buy a new tape measure mine shrunk in the wash. I only use loomstate tape measures.

Holy crap...just saw some pics and the release schedule for Iron Hearts upcoming Fall/Winter releases and yeah...I'm going to start saving now. I want to post it all here but then again I don't want any you heathens beating me to the punch on any of the drops...lol. I need to start making room in my closet cause there's going to be some new Iron Heart shirts in my near future.

This is just the tip of the iceberg dude...there are some serious bad ass drops coming this winter/fall. There's probably 8 pieces that I want and I need to start saving. Some cool jackets too...I wont get any but some of you east coasters will probably be interested. |

I'm torn. I've got the IH-666-19L in my cart, from Rodeo Bros. I'm looking over fit guides from IHUK, R&H, and RB, and they all give around a 34" inseam spec. 33.75" is bare minimum for me. They are one wash unsanforized (loomstate, according to R&H). Now, they all say, expect no more shrinkage. But, if they come under spec, or shrink even a half inch, I'm screwed. Not to mention, NO CUFF.
This is a covet list pair of mine. What to do, what to do ?

Option 1: give up and find something else Option 2: purchase, cross fingers, and only wash in cold water justflipacoin.com/ |

Find the non-wash spec, then you can confirm what they're starting with (though you should be looking for a non-wash for your covet list, if such a thing exists.  ). |

Giles commented in IH forums that, the denim is so unpredictable, or unstable (can't remember which) unwashed, they felt they had to put it through one wash. I think their close to perfect, for my tastes. Edit: www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=5445.0 |

Missed the link, the 1st time. Misinterpreted the question. Same ones. RB lists 86 cm, across the board. So, who do I trust ? IHUK puts my size 36 at 34.3, which is an average. Rivet & Hide has 34 across the board. |
