IH-9634 Super Black

[Guest]

Your "refreshing" technique sounds very interesting Till. When my Super Black Iron Hearts look old and washed out [which will likely happen in the next millenium, given my gentle life], I may just have to try a dark blue dye on 'em – wow, that would be cool !

Yeah, I know that when I do a hot wash/hot tumble dry, the jeans will be nice and snug again. When I bought them, I could barely stick my fingers in my front pockets -- they were that tight ! And now -- well, perhaps you saw the pics I posted last week, wearing my 9301 Slim Super Blacks ? They weren't baggy at all -- just looser than I'd like. So yeah -- IH Super Black jeans sure as hell do stretch at least an inch if not more, with repeated wear.

What is funny is how jeans can do that for quite a long time. The fibers are such that they will expand and contract almost indefinitely. One should think that after ten washes that effect is done with, but no.

Yes, blue overdye on Superblacks would be super hot!

^ that is hilarious. i dig. wonder how long till all of the twi-hearts get down in the 22oz BK-ness? ::)

[Guest]

I've seen his two "Twilight" movies…I'm surprised he bought just one pair ! Robert Pattinson is a dude that definitely has great style.

He was GQ's best dress man for 2009….must be a given for 2010 now as well !

whats the general consensus for sizing on these? TTS or down 1?

[Guest]

Not sure if it's general consensus but mine are TTS. Best fit I have in any of my 10+ pair of jeans.

i see. well Self Edge has a 29 (im a 30) in stock. But if its better to go TTS then i'll have to get the 9634z. i really want the button version though.

[Guest]

I believe the button version will be hard to find. I ordered mine in Nov 09 from Giles and he sent the Z version because there was already no more button version. Personally I think the zipper is more comfortable.

ADDIC – trust me. Get the W29. THESE STRETCH ! And they hardly shrink. If they're ultra tight when on, be patient...in 2 weeks, they'll be just right.

PS...I'm so glad I got in on the button-fly ! A pair of W29 boot-cut (altered to a L32) is on its way to me from Giles.  I've heard the Z version is softer (both from Till and people on SuFu). So the Z version must be far more comfortable at first wear. The button-fly version is stiff and crispy upon initial wear -- but I love it. The button-fly version also softens up considerably -- after 2 washes.

Update.  No he didn't.  Despite the fact that his agent said that if he liked them, he'd buy them.  When I had the temerity to suggest that he paid for them, he decided to send them back to me.  Guess he doesn't earn as much as we all thought…G

[hectic]

haha. So because he couldn't lig 'em they actually went to the trouble to send them back!?

[Giles]

What a twat…G
