Got this PM on another board. Any and all help would be very much appreciated!..
Hi….
Really need ur expert opinion regarding IH model. i'm very interested to have this IHT510x take 5 collaboration model which is being based on IH634S. I have ask many denim geek regarding my right fitting but both of them given different opinion. For ur info my true fit is 34.5 inch and i like to wear this jean in comfortable manner good shape is second to me..Take 5 staff told me this model will shrink about 1 inch in waist and 1-2 inch inseam which is a liitle bit different from IH 634S. My samurai element model i wear 35 inch whereas AIOGSP 510 model 36 inch which is pretty comfort for me. one more think normally i dont like wearing a low rise jeans but the temptation is too good to me..Any idea??
Usually, Take5 staff do know their shit, but I noticed that sometimes things get lost in the translation, especially on the customer side. But, you know: Irren ist menschlich…
IHT510 has same sizing and cut as IH-634S and uses same sanforized denim - marginal to no shrinkage, but will/can stretch.
I own IHT510 W32 and IH-634S W33 - I wear W32 (and can fit into a stretched W31)
I own S510AI-OGSP W31 and W32 - I can wear W31 after excessive stretching, but W32 turned out to be the better choice.Regarding true fit or true size - I'm not going there as it usually makes things too complicated- how and where to measure, vanity sizing, etc...

I'm going with your suggestion Seul, mainly because Vernon Wells is awesome.

OK, when you guys do a hot soak, how hot is hot?
Like in °C ??
well i've never measured the hotness of the water I'm using but when i do a hotsoak i always use the hottest water Coming out of the tap and/or i just boil up some water using a water boiler!

yeah…I'm going to do "hotsoak" for my 634SRAWs when they get here in a washing machine. Was just pondering should I do it in 40 or 60 °C. (and prob. also use the dryer
)
I guess I have to see how they fit presoak to determine this.ture story mate ;)…
and don´t forget to post some pics in the raw war/634s-raw thread as well! -

40° is probably fine. If I remember correctly, IH does the overdyeing process at 60° and it turns the leather patch into something close to a poker chip in consistency. I doubt you want that.
-
Right, I knew that.:) I seem to recall a video you posted of a patch that went through the process, though. I have a memory of you dropping it on a wooden floor and it clattered around like it was made of plastic.
Was I right about the temperature? And more importantly, about the advice I gave Injun?

Oh while I'm thinking about it- Giles, did you say that the new run of tee shirts was going to have a slightly different cut than the Shitamachi body tees?
I know I could look it up, but I'm too lazy.:)
-
Ah, I know how this one goes… we won't be sure of anything until you get the shirts and can measure them yourself. I understand, and now I'll stop asking questions about products you don't have yet.;)
