Nice one JCar, great aren't they?
I kept the inseam as is, as I'm pushing 6'4''

[JCar2666]

They are phenomenal.  Gonna make these my full-timers this weekend.  Good luck with yours.

This week: The 634S-B will be getting repaired…

[JCar2666]

Repaired you say?  What happened?

[deadendpro]

I wore through the crotch and need to get it fixed before it turns into something larger. Likely going to asked to have them patched as the entire area is getting pretty thin. also want some stitching reinforced.

[JCar2666]

That's a shame.  How long have you been wearing til the crotch blowout?

[deadendpro]

ehh, it happens man, i use them primarily to work in and it happened in 130 wears.

[JCar2666]

That doesn't seem like many wears.  Any rough guess on how many months that was?

[deadendpro]

umm… 4 and some change. but you should be aware that simply wearing the jeans does little, and that abrasion comes from what you actively do in them. it feels to me that you are taken aback by the amount of time i wore them in relation to needing repairs; you should not feel discouraged, they are great jeans, but i work hard in them and thus they need attention sooner rather than later.

[JCar2666]

Yes, taken aback a bit but not worried.  With these being so heavy and well made I'm surprised that has happened as soon as it did.  I guess like anything, it eventually breaks down depending on abuse.  I'm on my first pair of IH jeans so I'm curious about everyone's pair.
