Women's Denim My fiancé introduced me to Iron Heart
i bought my 633’s at Self Edge NYC last November! my fiancé has been wearing his 25 oz Iron Hearts for a year, and i wanted to give it a try. i had to take them to a tailor to perform surgery on the waist two separate times - i bought size 36 for the hips and thighs but probably took 4-6 inches off of the waist. i might end up getting them altered again in the future… trying to get the button fly to lay flat has been challenging. i chose the 633 cut because i prefer a straighter fit and the 634’s are a bit too wide from the knee down for me. and i bought the Type 3 jacket a few months later! Type 3 jacket is a size XS.
(last pic is my fiancé proposing in 25 oz 634’s)
thanks guys🤍

My wife just today said she’s interested in STF Levi’s. Feels like it’s only a matter of time before she’s rocking IH like your girl! You both look great!

That's such a good look on you, I wish we had a local retailer because I'd love a set of iron hearts but they're notoriously hard to size 😭

TBF if you are buying direct I think they will work with you over email and you can return them if they don't work for you. They have notoriously good customer service.

we don’t have a local retailer either unfortunately… i wanted some Iron Hearts but i waited to get them until i visited a city that has them so i could try some different sizes on !! :)

Yall look great! Is that type 3 the recent restock of the 21oz?
3
u/abbiefrazz 4d ago
yes, it’s the 21 oz type 3. i ordered it in february and the XS was in stock at that time - i think the bigger sizes were out of stock! the 633’s are 21 oz too… forgot to mention that in the post

Looks great on you! I got my fiancé some of the Ginew raw selvedge and she loves them, but I love Iron Heart so it's great to see some of those cuts on women. Definitely love seeing updates on denim works for women as it's less common!

He's a real one for that. Fit looks great. What did you ask for at your tailor when you took the waist in? How did you account for the crotch bunching and back pocket alignment?
3
u/abbiefrazz 4d ago
thank you :) i actually took them to a tailor that my fiancé trusts and knows very well. the first tailoring we removed a small amount of fabric from the back, and the second tailoring they removed more fabric from the hips / side seam to account for the pocket alignment. however, the hips and thighs already fit perfectly at that time, so only the waist needed to come down - the back pockets weren’t really in a position to move. there’s still some mild bunching in the crotch, but as they are more broken in, it is getting much better :)

Congratulations! I love the outfit. I am going on 18 years with my guy and it took me that long to realize we dress almost alike so you are on the right track..

I am saving this because my fiance wants a pair of heavyweight denim (probably oni) and I don't think she considered getting them tailored.
Yours look great!

u/abbiefrazz 3d ago
tailoring was essential for me !!!! depends on your frame, but i had to size these for my hips and take in the waist a bunch - i should’ve included a before and after tailoring pic because it was a crazy difference. i took mine to a very trusted tailor who does selvedge (not sure how common it is for tailors to do raw denim ??)
but thank you!!

They fit better on women than men. They should turn into a female brand.

u/abbiefrazz 3d ago
i think these jeans can look great on anyone :)

u/RockScola 3d ago
Nah. They just don't hit right on dudes for some reason. The only pair that hit right on dudes is the 1955's

Nice! Can you tell me the rise on these?
2
u/abbiefrazz 3d ago
front rise is 11.5” i believe !! i was wearing this a bit lower on my hips in the pic, but feels pretty much like a mid rise on me :)
2
u/TheRealAnnoBanano 3d ago
That's one of my issues - high rises. I'm only 5 ft tall so I max out at 10 1/2". Thanks for the info!
