To me, the combs always look worse after wash, every thing else looks better

agreed! But I think it'll fade nicer after the first wash?

and I feel the 634S being soft due to them sanforised, they seem to have lesser strong contrast fade like the 666S which is raw and slubby. maybe I'm wrong but this is what I noticed for mine….

Most iron heart jeans are sanforized, but 634s is really soft due to its denim, a lot of other sanforized ones are not so soft until a while or a few washes

The 21oz selvage denim is made with extra long staple (fibre) cotton, this allows us to spin the yarn at low tension without it coming apart.  End result is we can get a super soft but super heavy denim when it is woven.  This results is fantastically comfortable jeans, the flip side is that creases do not form so readily, hence the relatively low contrast fade on these jeans….

@Giles:

super soft but super heavy denim … relatively low contrast fade

Totally worthwhile tradeoff.

High contrast is nice but overated, I'll take harakis 634s over high contrast, they look amazing

Restock, all sizes…...

Finally took my 634S to wear today and damn I'm still amazed by its softness. Very comfy indeed.. And after wearing my 666S so often, I'm kinda appreciative of the extra "room" this looser fit gives as compared to initially when I hated it for being loose…

Not gonna sell this pair anymore.. Not anymore....

Yup…I've been wearing mine this week (634Raws need a cleaning again), and amazed as well with the softness, STILL my favorite pair.

Do 634s have rear lined pockets?

[Giles]

Nope

My cat decided to play matchmaker between my 634s and some bulletproof black ink, they got on splendidly! Threw them in the wash which appears to have done absolutely nothing, pics to follow!

The cat still alive?

[Keyfour]

Going to just keep wearing these, I'm worried if I try and remove the ink I'll end up with one stonewash thigh.

If I have ever seen a "go feck yourself" look, that's it….

Keyfour I can't get over how much your cat looks like my cat Sinbad who uses my 634s (and
all my other IH jeans) as a scratching post…!

So how tight do you want the 634s to be at first in the waist?

I can get the 32 buttoned up with a bit of elbow grease, and it is certainly not comfy. 33 feels good (perhaps too good, if you know what I mean).

33 or 32?

[Giles]

32

Thanks for the quick reply!
