IH-634SV - The Vulcan - 18oz Raw Straight Cut Jean (With Hidden Pockets)

[Anesthetist]

Great fit R&R. Now you guys have me wondering if I should do a second soak.

[RocknRoll]

Thanks man. I didn't bother with a 2nd soak because I'm happy with where they're at now. If they shrink a bit in the wash at some point, so be it.

I'm mad for this 18oz denim.

Mine haven't been off me since the day I got them (apart from soak time).

Some fit pics of these badass jeans. 2 Hot Soaks. 35x32



I love these jeans and its the exact fit that I'm going for. Great job to all those who had a hand in designing them.

Why did I just read all posts… Why am I thinking about these... Why do I keep thinking about these…

Thinking about going with a sz. 32 (read as: if I can come up with the $$$) and hotsoak whilst wearing them in order to prevent the waist from shrinking... Then after they've stretched, a second soak... Can I expect:

• 1" stretch in the waist (assuming so)?..
• a max of 1" shrinkage lengthwise?.. I'd like to get them hemmed before soaking them... G: if I remember correctly you always add 1" to your usual length for raw jeans pre-soak (cause I know you hem before soaking)?..

Seul, Ive been thinking these as well, in 32W… maybe at some point

I'd be brave and just toss them in washing machine 60° and boogie woogie....(assuming these won't behave differently than 21/23oz.)

I'd have hemmed them to 33,5" to achieve STD cuff... (Seul, add 1,5", 1" for shrinking, 05" for combs etc.)
(me injunchief shorty-legs...   )

Edit: Just noticed MIkeC had 2" shrinkage on his inseam….

Ah well… Might be my next jeans in a couple of years, unless I stumble upon an extra 500 $... Only IH purchase I'll allow myself to make is the navy duck workpants... Already have a pair of heavy jeans...

Gotta be rational...

(Seul craftily says "IH" not "Works", there giving himself "TW" wiggle room…)

[Seul]

I swear I will end up renting a big cardboard box from Ikea sleeping on some parking lot all tucked in IH and TW gear…

[Chris]

At least you'll be warm and comfortable…

[Seul]

Guess I'll have to start adopting that kind of mindset…
