      I'm no expert, but i expect that making the pocket openings larger is going to be nearly impossible.  You're going to have to remove rivets, replace the pocket bags, possibly reposition belt loops and probably a few other equally complicated things.  All while not destroying the rest of the jeans by mistake.  Sorry, but your best bet is just to use the pockets as little as possible.:)

        Ditto….

        I have specced more roomy pocket openings on the Vulcans, which will be the 634S cut in 18oz.....

            I said "specced", rather than "made sure that there will be", because until I actually see the finished article, I am not certain.  There is infinite scope for a "lost in translation" incident

                  I gotta extol the breathability of the 21 oz.  I've been summertime workin in these puppies through the arizona heat and they keep getting better! Even though I wore them for months prior, the summer has given these boys inspiration and they have since melded to my body. More pics gotta come cus I'm getting ridiculous praise daily.

                      Probably better in the dry desert heat. Its pretty humid in the summer where I live and there have been days where heavy denim is just not comfy. Starting to cool off a bit so the 634S have come out more.

                                          Ok I think I am ready to order a my first pair.  I have measured my jeans that I like the fit of best and they are very similar to these but I have a few questions.

                                          I know it says no shrinkage but I want to get these hemmed so how much would you add to get them to end up as close to possible as desired length?  Or do I just order with the measurement I want as the final and they will adjust??

                                          Can someone tell me the difference between these and raw?

                                          Will I be sorry I didn't order the 25 oz version?

                                          My tts is slightly smaller then what i plan to order will they shrink to fit? - I will not size down (yes I have read a lot here  😉

                                            OK, to account for the combs in the back of the knees, you should add about .75 inches (2cm) to the length you want for hemming.  That should work out for you after you've worn them a while and the denim starts to break in and conform to your body.

                                            Can someone tell me the difference between these and raw? 
                                            The 634S uses denim that is sanforized (pre-shrunk); raw denim is unsanforized, meaning the fibers will contract when they get wet (shrink to fit).
                                            *I think this is the focus of your question, but technically speaking, "raw" and "unsanforized" are not synonymous.

                                            Will I be sorry I didn't order the 25 oz version?
                                            Only you can decide if you'll be sorry for buying these rather than the 25oz denim.  I will say, however, that the 21oz is Haraki's signature denim and the 634 is his signature cut.  Together, they form the foundation and soul of Iron Heart.  This model is the consistent best selling jean year after year for Iron Heart.  If you are only going to buy one pair of IH jeans, this is the quintessential choice.
                                            *On a personal note, this is the Iron Heart item I ever bought.  I don't own the 634-XHS, and frankly, I have no intention of ever buying them.  Extreme heavyweight denim has no appeal for me.

                                            My tts is slightly smaller then what i plan to order will they shrink to fit? - I will not size down (yes I have read a lot here  😉
                                            As I said before, these will not shrink to fit.  The 21oz denim is a loose weave and can stretch a significant amount.  If your true size is slightly smaller than the size you are considering, the best fit may come from sizing down, despite your reservations.
