IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo

[riffblaster general]

ive had no issues with the zipper at all.

[Blackheart]

Good to know RBG, those will be my next pair. Thanks!

[riffblaster general]

no problem.  enjoy!  they are by far the toughest pair of jeans i own.  the fabric is totally different than the 634s.

[Blackheart]

I saw them at SELA and loved them, just wondered about how the zipper would hold up with such heavy
denim…Hoping I can wear them to work and no one will notice I'm wearing jeans!  Not allowed to wear jeans
here at the hospital.

[Giles]

Have not heard of any getting bust.  I've got the boot cut cersion (9461) arriving this week too…..

[Blackheart]

Oooh, tempting G! Might be better for work too since I wear boots to work…

[Katsushin]

Just wore mine last night and the zipper feels every bit as tough as the denim.
(I was drinking water all day and night and used the bathroom at least seven times, so I got plenty of zipper time in to properly reflect on it…)

[Blackheart]

Cheers Katsushin! If that isn't a zipper test I don't know what is!
I figure if I don't tuck my shirt in then they're never know they're jeans here at work…

[Giles]

Good call, paired with The Great White, you'd look super professional….............

[Blackheart]

We don't have to wear scrubs on Fridays so I thought the Super Blacks would be perfect and go un-noticed if
I left my shirt un-tucked…Great White would be excellent with those! Good thinking there G!

[Giles]

We came up with the idea (Simon and me) as a way of sneaking a bit of IH into a staid professional environment.  Damn just noticed I used the word professional, must have been all Simon's idea….........

[Blackheart]

At times here we're far from it! I think the SB's won't be noticed here, especially when all the managers
come back from lunch tipsy…

[georgeel]

my finger is on the trigger. But I'm still unsure about doing.

Pro:

1. I love IH and 634S is the core of IH style.
2. I have only one pair of 22oz Jeans (666Sod are 18oz)
3. You all have at least one pair of 634S, and that means something…

Contra

1. This month I have just bought 2 pair of IH
2. I'm not sure of the size to choose. I got 29 301S, and it's ok; I got 30 of 666Sod, and it's ok. Which size for 634S? 29 or 30?
3. Summer is coming. Maybe it's better if I catch a pair of TW1220FI

What to do?

You can always wait, take some time to enjoy wearing the 301 and 666 and appreciate them.  Size wise, I think you are good on 29,  634S is roomier.  Finally, you should have no problem wearing it in the summer unless it is super hot.

[Giles]

29 and toss a coin

[Beatle]

seconded. def. 29, but I think you could even fit a 28. I'm wearing the 666od in 31 and just received a very special pair of 634s in size 28 via Giles, perfect

[georgeel]

mmh…
perfect perfect?
gonna check your 666Sod fit pics...

[Blackheart]

I went a size down on my 634's, my 301's are a 33, 634's are a 32. Both perfect.

I sized down 1 to a 31 on my 634s.  I tried on the overdyed 301s at Self Edge and was a 32.  I agree with Beatle that you could take a 28 in the 634s.

Note that the leg opening on the 634s is quite a bit larger than the 301 or 666 and make sure you are ok with this.  The 634s usually look better with boots or chunky sneakers than slimmer and dressier shoes.
