IH-634S - 21oz Selvedge Denim Straight Cut Jeans - Indigo
-
Hello Forum!
I am new to the Iron Heart community and am curious about the 634s .
I am a bigger guy and am looking into purchasing these great looking jeans but am curious about the fit.
Do the 634s fit closely to 501s? These are the best fit on me so far.
I am a 42 x 32 usually. and my levis have stretched to around a 43.5 ish. I want the jeans to not look too baggy and have a good fit. Thanks for any and all imput.Mike
42's are probably the best best. The 42's will easily stretch to 43.5 maybe more. They'll definitely have less taper in the legs than 501's. The 1955's might be a better option and they have more room in the thighs, and taper more than 634's.

i would just like to state that i measured my 634s today. they are tagged 29 and they measured 32!!!!! WOW.
-
Have you blown out the crotch at all?
That is crazy!
-
nope the crotch is still going strong. i had em "repaired" at self edge with the darning machine but it was more preventative maintenance than repair though.
-
Mine are being reinforced as I type preventative maintenance is the way to go.
-
Preventative maintenance is definitely the way to go. I did that with my 07's and it made a huge difference. They need it again (over 18 months in now), but I was waiting for another pair before I send em out.

Once I wear through what I have, I'm going to get on a steady diet of 634s.
Good call. There is a reason they were the first and Haraki's favorite. I had mine on last night when I got home and the denim feels like butter. So soft and comfortable to lounge in. I was also thinking about Cosmo and his purchase of 10 pairs of these at once. Something I admire about that!

Exactly. He knows what he wants and likes, so why not stock up for the foreseeable future?(Depending on how he wears his jeans.)

At work Today I was bullshittin with the new guy that moved from Seatle. For some reason we started talking about how much we hate Walmart and the Malls. Since its Friday I had on my 634s and my SH-13, he was complaining about how fast clothes fall apart and he was tired of shopping at the mall. He asked me wear I got my jeans. I told him the whole story about IronHeart and Giles. Then he asked how much…. when I told him the price he about shit his pants, but then I told him I have had them for over a year. then his tune changed and he was amazed. Then I found out he is second Generation American and his family came from the UK, then I told him I got the jeans from UK even though they are made in Japan..... told him about our main man G in Gosport... come to find out his family is from SouthHampton and they go back to visit quite often.
The guy had been out of work for a while which is why he moved from Seatle to KS, this has been his first stable job opp. in quite some time. Still in awe over the jeans he wanted to get a pair, but he was low on funds after moving and after being out of work. So I gave him my 634S's and told him to wear them for while, if he do not like them give them back. If he does like them I told him to give me what he thinks they are worth. We all know I will never see them jeans again...
