@volcano:
anyone having issues with their crotch area like me? not sure if its because of my huge thighs that gives some occasional rubbing thus the inseam are starting to tear. pics below. in short, i just wanna find out, is this normal? nothing to worry about and just keep thrashing the bitch?
This happens to some people with any jean they wear… Only thing you can do is regular remedial maintenance....
I'll confirm that; every pair of jeans I've ever owned wears through in the exact same spot (just to the right of where all four seams come together). My Samurais only took a couple of weeks to start falling apart. Only solution is to monitor regularly and aggressively repair. As Benjamin Franklin once said, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."

Try and get it sewn and maybe patched before it gets too bad, the boys at The Tuck Shop will be able to advise/help/sort….
will swing by tuckshop soon i guess. thanks for the advice G and cris.

I'm noticing that happening on my 634s.
It appears the skinny-legged have the advantage over us tree-trunk legged fellows in this instance.
Just part of the patina baby.

agree mate. just gotta live with it.
a crotch blow is also unique actually. a story to tell on our jeans. hahaha! -
I have really muscular thighs and this happens to me all the time. My suggestion is just to have it reenforced early. And if holes form (this also happens to me) get them reenforced too. Otherwise you will end up with a huge hole!

Happened to mine too - was a 5 minute repair job by the excellent SENY repair person.

You guys are so lucky to live next to proper denim shops like SelfEdge or DC4 etc.

Painful yet rewarding

damn! that sure hurts. but like what DD said, its rewarding and the rewards will come soon.

Volcano, I get a lot of problems with my crotch area too.
First thing to do is to send the jeans to a tailor for some "preventive reinforcement" when you see the first stage of wear.
After the reinforcement, you will still get rips after months of wearing (but definitely slower). But what I usually do is to send them for some repair and that works for me. I just got my 634S-RAW back from the local tailor.
