Nice work @ Jercules. Mine have about a year of wear and 1 wash

Here is mine, owned it since 2001

Here is my pair similar fades in the back pocket. Mine is the older v2 version but same fabric.

All feel different and have very different Characteristics. The 16oz slb is the most breathable. The 19 is a left hand twill and unsanforized. Its stiffer and more rigit with great fade pottential. The 14 oz is a nice all year weight. Then you have the 25oz heavy but softens up beautifully with wear and fades very nicely. You have the 18 with vintage fades, the 17oz with natural indigo. They all feel different, fade different so at the end of the day it is a matter of preference and variety.

My daily tool watch.

@CosmoSix5 the 19l is a gnarly denim. Starts cardboard and stays cardboard for a while. If comfortable is what you are after the 21oz hands down. Now the 19l will reward you with beautiful high-contrast fades but you will have to work very hard for it.

Some people have an elitist mentality. That true homage bs and cannot see 1 inch past their index fingure. Customers like that you can loose for a lot of trivial reasons. It's difficult to make everybody happy nor should you try. Stay true to your values and the right customer will always be there.

I am with you guys also. Don't like taper. I think the 634's in general have the most balanced top block in terms of front and back rise. Another unicorn is the 463 that has a front rise slightly lower than the 634 and a back rise that is higher, works out beautifully.

Bwi is the closest airport in Baltimore. Not sure about direct flights though. I am never able to get a direct flight to Athens Greece from BWI so I always fly out of Philly or Dulles airport in DC.

Absolutely. Looking forward to it. Exciting!!!

Lol this year. I just realized its 2026 the IH meeting so I will be good to go. I go to Greece every year. I am from Greece originally but have been living in the US since 1988

Thats a bummer I live 20 minutes up the road but I will be in Greece that week. That sucks. I wanted to meet you guys

@Biecher. Yes creasing is a thing with the heavier fabrics. So one to one and a half centimeters longer is sensible to account for creasing

I think that both right hand and left hand twill get leg twist and from my understanding the twist follows the direction of the twill. I think it happens more on unsanforized fabric as it has not gone though the post skew process. The IH 19l jeans get left twist. Again I am not an expert just stating my understanding

@Luijim78. I have seen you is all kinds of different cuts but the 463's look the best on you in my opinion. Ace fit my man

Thank you much @Graham

I have a question. How to you guys size those? Just a bit bigger than the actual wrist size?. My wrist size is 19.1 centimeters for reference.

@shp-7777. I think there has been an 18oz double indigo, not 21oz.
