Just got mine today

[urbanwoodsman]

anyone do a full wash and dry on these? Wondering if they will shrink in the waist at all.

Mine were stretched and a little loose before it hit the water. After the wash they were snug on my waist. Haven't worn them much after washing since they need repair.
0 soaks

That's from my experience hope that helps!

Yes, extra hot soak, hot dryer, big shrink

Hello IH people.

Wanted to share.

1 cold soak. Maybe 150-180 days of easy wear. 3-4 month more and i will give them a cold wash.

Those are looking stunning… You can see how much potential they have!.. Beauty...

[xtcclassic]

Beauty is right. Missing mine already, especially after seeing colour ghost's pair.  They're hanging in the closet until April for the HWDC2. Can't wait to start wearing them again, even if it is only 2 days a week.

Monday and colour ghost, they're looking great. I think this is some of the most unique denim I've ever seen, there's really nothing that looks like it.

[colour ghost]

Yeah these are great jeans. Really soft suddenly after being …hole for a few month. In the sun they have this electric blue colour, and when not washed, they become very shiny..........grease coating I love it.

More pictures. There must be a pair more abused than mine

Enjoy

hey good people of the forum,
I really like these jeans and the fades achieved by nerkg and color ghost are making me like them even more. Unfortunately the fit isn't quiet for me (to fit my thighs i'd have a waist size way too big … story of my life). So here's a question for true indigo heads. Do you know if there are other jeans similar to these: very deep and dark indigo warp, white weft and blue stitching. Even in other weights (which could be usefull for warmer weather) and from other brands. I'm summoning all of your denim wisdom for this one.

thanks.

[xtcclassic]

Well, you can get the exact same denim in the 634 cut from self edge. Contrast stitching, though. Or you could try the Pure Blue Japan xx-007's, similar look but 14oz denim instead of 23 oz, and much slubbier. Those are great as well, and have blue stitching and no arcs.

[Chris]

PBJs are going to be too skinny through the thighs, though.  All their models are seriously slim.

[xtcclassic]

Actually, the xx-009 might work. Same denim as the xx-007 but a more relaxed thigh with a bit of taper. These have an indigo warp and weft, but end up looking very similar to the IH 23 ounce denim since the IH is woven so tightly you can hardly see the white weft threads. I have both the SEXIHXLSXA13's and the PBJ xx-007, and they both have a similar vibe, at least at a distance.

[wariosss]

hey guys thanks for your answers.
yeah i already saw the pbj, but i'm not has fond of the fabric and the way they fades.
the 634 would be the perfect cut, but the yellow stitches kill them for me sice i bought the mega busters.
well if you have any other suggestions, i'm all ears.

[skutubu]

11 wears, no washes or soaks.  Pretty stiff still, these are going to take a while to get soft, but at least some fading is starting to show.  Can't wait til I get to where Colour Ghost's pair is at.

[xtcclassic]

Nice. I'm having serious withdrawal. April can't get here fast enough…

[NORTHSTAR612]

If I wear a size 34 in the 634s would I also be a size 34 in these?
