I'm at a crossroads right now. BOM008-T vs. IH 634S-B.

If you want something that fits like the Wg than the 634 is not what you want unless you plan on getting them tapered.

So sad because I love the characteristics of that denim. I'll go with the 008s. Thanks for thr reply.

Look at IH 633 for slight taper. They're awesome jeans

Are they over dyed at all?

Naw don't think so

What exactly are you looking for in a denim? Iron heart has the 777 fit which is near to the Wg but it's only available in the standard 21OZ fabric currently. They also have the 555 fit (more of a straight skinny than a taper) In black fade-to-grey.

I really like the fabric characteristics. The fit itself is just much more relaxed. I'd like a indigo indigo with a WG fit a slightly smaller leg opening. I'm thinking thr 008s are really a good. Option for that.

Get the momos. Join the family

I got a pair of BOM008-Ts when they first came out, and now that I see they're still available, I might order a spare pair for when my current ones wear out. They're great jeans, just don't expect much stretch. I wear 34 in WG and 34 in the 008s.

I'm actually glad to hear this because I pretty much wear a 38 on the nose.

Awful cell pictures, but http://imgur.com/a/y2ggZ
Over 18 months the waist has stretched about an inch.

Those are awesome!

So it comes down to do you want a slimmer or more relaxed fit.
I have the BOM008-T, Momo's fabric is known not to stretch much or at all. I've had mine for about 10 months, they were at a 34 inch waist when I bought them, and they still are at 34 inches and I do not wear a belt, they fit snug, so no stretch from me.
I personally don't find the measurements from the Iron Heart pair really flattering, but you are a bigger guy, you can probably pull it off.
Also to consider: stealth stripes, they are awesome once they start to fade.
This is where I was at. I love the fade of the IHs, but they are even bigger than Weird Guy fit in most aspects.
Momos do stretch, just very slowly, and not that much
